Yes, this is a valid point. Well said.
While I don't disagree, we would also be remiss if we didn't acknowledge the fact that the tournament where they won their titles was unannounced and occurred at like 9 am EST on a week day, which is probably the one of the lowest server population times. Not saying they didn't earn the titles, but to say titles from that tournament equate to reigning champs in this tournament is also kind of weak due to what I'm sure will be different levels of competition. I mean, the fact that a level 52 character was on the second best team kind of validates that point I feel.

To use the boxing analogy, it would be like a middle weight champ throwing on a few pounds and being declared heavy weight champ due to his previous success in a different weight class.

I really don't care though and either way I definitely appreciate the GMs doing this and am really looking forward to it. Even though I'm horrible at PvP, these sort of events are always a lot of fun.
