Mana Games

Removed the lob limitation rule, thanks to the latest game Build which changed the CPU behavior.

Now if a tournament starts at the quarterfinals, its ranking points are divided by 2 ; if it starts at the semifinals, by 4 ; and if it starts at the final, by 8.

1) To motivate the top players to play against new players, the Random Luck chance has been changed from :

Your chances to win Random Luck are : (YourOpponentRank + 15) / (YourOpponentRank + YourRank + 30) .
Example : you're #10 ; your opponent is #100 ; you have (100+15) / (100+10+30) = 82% chances to win by RL.

to :

Your chances to win Random Luck are : (YourOpponentRank + 45) / (YourOpponentRank + YourRank + 90)
Example : you're #10 ; your opponent is #100 ; you have (100+45) / (100+10+90) = 72.5% chances to win by RL.

2) If you're playing your 5th tournament on the TE Tour or less, and you didn't win a match by RL in a previous round of your current tournament, then the RL chance is always 50/50 whatever your ranking and your opponent ranking are. (this is to encourage seasoned players to help newcomers on the Tour)
If you already got a WO or DISQ in your current tournament or a previous one, it may cancel the right for the 50/50 RL, but it'll depend on each case from the Tour Moderators judgment.
