Guild Wars 2

Hey,

I was thinking.
What is the purpose of keeping 8 team tournaments with gold chest only for winning last match, when you can start 2 team tournament, which is basically a jump into 8 team finals…

I looked at the rewards, and the one for the 8 teams is called “Gold Free Tournament Reward Chest” and the other one, for 2 teams is called “Match Free Tournament Reward Chest”.

Now. Is there ANY difference between this two? Does playing 8 teams tournament make any sense at all?

Cheers

The gold-chest from 8-team tournament drops gear from free tournament tokens.
The Match-chest from 1v1 tournament drops gear from paid tournament tokens.
