Sounds like a good idea but eventually people would know this build beats that build, so unless there would be some sort of a random factor or frequently cycling builds, then you could bet on the npc that would always win. X Hippocrates X 16:15, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I had that in mind. After a couple of tournaments, a Sealed Deck kind of play could be implanted. Oh wow... that fits the said-to-be implant. Gee Titani, you're a genius! Thank you thank you... I know! No need to clap! Titani Ertan 16:18, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

Ok, but...

Current state of A.I. would be bad in something like this. You could almost know the outcome of a match only by looking at skills.
I'd love to see this as PvP. Hell yeah!
NO, not as a form of PvP, where people run these gimmick "Suck my dick!"-builds, but as a part of one. Sealed Deck.
Now you have a smaller change of knowing the winner before the match even starts and makes beting more interesting. - J.P.Talk 16:42, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

You're right about the AI-outcome. But how otherwise would you place the bet? You can't just blindly do it. Maybe make a pre-made Score chart, showing the outcome of battles the players didn't see, and according to that they decide, instead of the skill bar. Thoughts?

I didn't say there was something wrong in the beting (or is it betting?), or did I? - J.P.Talk 17:11, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

I guess that it would be possible to implement this, and it would be good however people might abuse it (like most things in GW) and so make a hell of a lot of money. Also it would mean the derv team(s) would have to work on something apart from Nerfs. If all these issues could be overcome then this could be a good addition to the game. Having it as a weekend event may stop people making too much money off this (or maybe to win items/skins or whatever and not money so it could be a bit of a money sink.)X Hippocrates X 18:04, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

(Sorry didn't notice)Of course it can be abused, but adding something like a Sealed Deck will decrease the abusable function drastically. Also, A.net needs some major new content before they will start to lose all the leftovers from Sway (not that almost anyone wants them in the game), and just content in general. This can be a nice add.

I do believe the bets should be in money, and to avoid money sink how about... the higher bid you place, the lower overall money you get in the end? Titani Ertan 17:57, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

TBH I think that a money sink might be a good idea, but I don't know what you mean by getting less the more you bid - could put a daily winning limit like ZC and ZE. X Hippocrates X 18:12, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

For example, I bid for 1,000 Platinum, and I bidded on the winning NPC. Normally, I would get 3,000 Platinum, but since I have passed some limit, I will only gain (say,) 2,700 Platinum. <--Very exaggerated and won't work on such small numbers, but you get the overall point.
