Is there a particular reason why FFG hasn’t put together any tournament play for The Lord of The Rings LCG?

I’m only wondering because the tourneys tend to create more buss and swag around games with “events” (e.g. Massing at Oz.). Playmats, Deckboxes, Specialty Cards…ect.

Hmmm...why the hate?

Partly, this is probably because it is hard to figure out how to make fair tournament rules that would allow people to compete for real despite this beeing a cooperative game.

I put up a suggestion for how it might be done at BGG here. I'd be happy to hear what you think about it.

The Race Against the Shadow Tournament Rules are really fun. More people should try them out.
