TO use 4p IRL for logistic reasons, no top players want to compete in 4p. The skill ceiling for 4p is sooooo low comparing to 2/3p. Alright, I shared the truth I am done, I am sorry.

Lol, man that has never competed in serious 4P tournaments criticises something.

What experience are you realistically even basing this on? How many 4 player tournaments have you even played? How many 4 player tournaments have you played against people that regularly play against other good 4 player players?

I participated in many 4p online tournaments in every format imaginable with top players at the time. The discord tournaments are far more advanced than any real life tournaments. We also found out that without rebalanced, it's not fun to play with Point Luna with colony in 4p, it will score over 145 points easily in a top player's hand in a two and half hour game. Even though I was super deep in the tournament because it was during pandemic and I played it very seriously, It wasn't fun at all(and guess which corp I lost to), after that tournament, pretty much no one bothered with unrebalanced version of TM past prelude without rebalanced or league server, until steam app added Venus just because we are so tired of 2p prelude.

P.S. Oh check out your profile picture, if you already know why pretend that you don't know? 3p is fun, 4p is dumb, 5p is let's do a joke game. 4p doesn't even work with colony because you get lock out of Luna by seating. The game doesn't work with 4p competitive speaking. The draft is completely blind, it's just a much lower skilled game.
