I will, as long as my team doesn't drop out again (if I were to register) :V
Challenger/Diamond 1 teams =/= guaranteed win.
The current requirement is "Have a MOBAFire.com account in good standing." There is nothing in the description of the tournament that says it is for only active community members.
They will either be active or not, it is hard to define activity objectively and for it to actually be effective since quotas will often just be cheated / spammed. Having tournaments provided by a community site generates interest in the community part of the site for those participating and gets more traffic to the site in general, including the forums.
Also in the tournament descriptions:
It would be unfair to disallow teams to participate based on their league tier, especially since we pointed out that we want all skill levels there. I am sure we don't want a pro team easily winning every time and we will come up with a solution to this if it becomes an issue.

Quoted:
The vision for these series of tournaments is to cultivate growth withing the community for all levels of skill and to provide consistent competition and incentive for teams to pursue their dream of competing at the highest levels.

Thanks to GrandMasterD for my sig!
Ok, so you have no way to discern if someone makes real posts or spams. ********. Spam gets reported all day long. If I see 4not roll into a thread with a 'hi' or something else useless to pad their posts i will report it in a heartbeat.
Diamond 1/challenger kids are to plat 1/diamond 5 kids what plat 1 kids are to silver 5 kids. It is practically impossible for my team to hold a candle to the professional teams seeded above me. However, my team of low plat/high diamond kids have been beaten soundly by a handful of mid gold players. The skill disparity isn't that insurmountable.
