Banning players

Hi all.

If I block a player this means that I will not be matched to play with him in future tournaments?
hey em, good idea to win in future tournaments lol. Took a while to figure out why u cared about playing some troll. hahahaha. If you won't be matched with them then this post should definitely be deleted. After readers think about why u asked this i think they'll agree this post should be banned. Em u may be a genius!
I mean, what´s the point to play against a 2400 rated player? That guy should be banned (Kidding). There should be a way to avoid playing with them. At least people like me won´t be able to defeat him NEVER!.
TL;DR: No.

If you block someone you'll still be paired with that person in the tournament.

The point of tournaments is that you can't pick your opponents.

i think you're quite right to decide what grade you play against in individual games - and to block players who are obviously so strong that losing is predicable, demoralising and from which one learns nothing. But I don't think you can or should apply the same principle to playing in tournaments - where there is fun in taking part - not necessarily winning
