So me and 5 of my friends have been playing Eclipse a lot lately (4-6 player games).We decided to play a 1:1 tournament, starting with a round robin phase to give everyone a seeded ranking (only playing humans and rise of ancients and ship pack one expansions). After we are all ranked, in ranking order we will pick races and then play a single elimination tournament.
I want to get some opinions on which races should be eliminated from a 1:1 game because they are too strong. We are eliminating Draco and Planta per manual......but what about the rest? Anything in particular that is too strong in a 1:1 matchup? I would like to expand the faction selection to include all the expansions but again not sure which ones should be eliminated.
Any thoughts/feelings/guidance is much appreciated.
