I normally don't participate in HSL events. But when I hear about a single person (won't name him) for months winning almost every event, it makes me not even want to participate anymore. I think It can be off putting and demotivating for people to participate if they know they have minuscule chance to get top prize unless they running T10 swine deluxe. The loot 2.0 system kinda makes HSL events more like MSL events nowadays.
The most common HSL event setup in general doesn't make sense to me. The one with highest loot in most cases already got profit in the event. So why must he/she gain the top prize too?
If I ever acquire an LA in the future and make HSL events I'd make top 2 the top prize top 1 lowest price and top 3 the 2nd highest prize.
For 3 reasons:
1. The 2nd place as best prize will motivate more people to join the event since it seems more doable than top 1 (increased potential revenue).
2. The usual winner won't always win HSL. (again more potential players will join so more revenue).
3. The HSL top 1 player will still get some extra ped.
I would personally participate more often in HSL if the prizes were set in above manner.
Just my two free pecs.
