tournaments are unbelievably stupid

I know this is talked about a lot but i don't think people understand how genuinely bad it is. I got to the final round twice. Both times with bow and arrow and BOTH times i was up against a mounted swordsman. Now I didn't even try to fight back. I rage quit as soon as i saw what i was up against. Even with the best bow skills and max power draw it is fundamentally impossible to win. You have to get a direct headshot on a mounted unit, and even then you don't do shit because they're practice arrows. The chances of you getting 2 headshots are next to nothing which i'm still convinced wouldn't do anything. You literally can't get 3 headshots in the time that it takes the horse to reach you so does that make it literally impossible? Did no one seriously fucking think of this. Even on 1/4 easy mode it's still impossible.
