Even though things are not always balanced between inf, archery and cavalry, the thing I still truly enjoy about Warband and why I keep playing it more than any other game is the fact that every class takes a large amount of skill to be elite at. Especially given how many skilled players there are now because of years of practice and hardening. If people want exact balance, then having an all melee tournament would probably be the way to go so that it's all one class. Or do an all cav or all archery tourney. I like the variety of the three classes and since this game is old and not a several hundred million dollar game, we have to accept the setbacks of imbalances and problems with different parts of the game.
I enjoy trying to utilize every weapon for every class by swapping, it makes the game more strategic to me. Since the game is intended to really utilize melee, it is great that we have duel tournaments and team duel tournaments. I believe there is a place for everything and this tourney utilizes all the classes and some teams use a little more lets say creativity with their equipment and class utilization than others, but in the end, every team should be trying their best to win. So far with the streaming and the child board, all the team captains participation, and interest in this tournament, I would say from where Warband has been in the past to now it's moving in a solid direction. If lots of people want to go back to the way Warband played out earlier in it's life span, one could create a tournament that reflected those values and limitations for example on weapon swaps.
I think most people have moved on to taking every aspect of the game and utilizing it whether it be going all cav to try to win or 4 archers and 3 cav, etc. etc. There are so many winning combinations out there and also skill levels that make things interesting.
Don't have much time, so sorry if that makes no sense to anyone, feel free to just ignore this post
