New Tournament Page - Bracket Display Is Too Big

Post by FSKFSK »

On the new tournament page, the bracket display is way too big. Before, the whole bracket for a single elimination or multiplayer elimination tournament fit comfortably on the screen with minimal scrolling to see the whole thing. Now, there's a whole lot of scrolling required to see the whole bracket. It's particularly bad on mobile.

I miss the compact/compressed view of the bracket.

This new "update" is complete garbage. BGA made everything bigger — and yet it's somehow harder to read. Not to mention they appeared to have stripped out useful data points like, I dunno — WHAT PLACE YOU'RE IN??

No longer can you see your overall ranking among participants, or see how many games, byes, and wins you and other competitors have accumulated to date. This has killed any interest I have in entering tournaments, or keeping my premium plan.

That's the "modern style" of website design. Make everything bigger. A bunch of my favorite website were redesigned like that. They made everything bigger and added a bunch of whitespace, making it impossible to find information easily.

For example, Reddit's old compact view let you see many items per page. The "modern" redesign has a lot of whitespace and you can see many fewer items per page.
