Concise description:- A new game achievement medal for tournament games
Specifics/Details:- Awarded to members that defeated X unique opponents in Tournament games. Bronze=20, Silver=100, Gold=400.
How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:- A nice new medal which should be easy to implement
- Will encourage more players to join in with tournaments
- It would give credit to those who play and win alot of tournament games but don't win so many tournaments.

I could see that. I'd say make the numbers larger, though.

Those are the standard numbers for all medals, no reason to change them. The only two medals that don't have those numbers are Cross-Map (not 400 maps), and Ratings (nothing to do with the game itself). Tournament games are the vast minority, if this was implemented right now there would be a lot fewer people with tourney medals than standard/other popular medals. If anything, raise the others.
I like the idea though

It would also include clan war games now they get tourney privs, so could encourage more people to get involved in clans as well.

Clans already have a medal. Keep it simple. Tournaments only.

I think it wuld be hard to seperate them as clan games now come under the same thing as tournament games.

and the clan medal is similar to the tournament medal, given our to those who have won an event. This medal would be similar to all the other game medals for defeating X number of unique opponents..

What he is saying is that clan war games would be recognize as a tournie, as they now use Tournament privs. So the system would recognize the Clan war game as a Tournament game.

Then if it is simpler to include clan tournaments as well , let them be included. I am all for this idea.

Correct, this couldn't be done with the current system arrangement. There are several behind the scenes factors that make this idea more difficult than just designing and posting a new medal. At minimum, there must be a separate clan system as well as a way to weed out some official tournaments but not others (like removing battle royales but keeping entertainment team seasonal tournaments).

Could it just not include everything? So for tournaments, clan wars, battle royals and entertainment team seasonal tournaments? are there any others?

It still has merit, but I just needed to point out that with the current backstage set-up that only TDs have access to, there are more steps to take than a simple designing and installing of the medals. Furthermore, I don't know how receptive lack would be to essentially doubling-up the medals available for tournament players.
