🔍 About the Addon
Hated Dueling Club turns a raid or party into a real 1v1 dueling tournament. Sign up, get seeded into a proper single-elimination bracket, and the addon handles the rest: it announces each round, runs a synced 3-2-1 countdown, and hands both combatants a one-click button that targets their opponent and opens a real WoW duel. When it's over, the host confirms the result and the bracket advances on its own.
There's a gold and item prize pool built in too, with an entry fee, a host-funded bonus, and a payout checklist split however the host wants (winner takes all, top 2, or top 4).
Perfect for:
- Guilds and communities running a duel night or a raid-break tournament
- Hosts who want brackets and prize math handled instead of tracked by hand in chat
- Anyone who wants a fair, host-refereed result instead of relying on the honor system

📊 Pro-Tips
🥇 Anyone can host
Whoever clicks Create Tournament becomes the host for that run. Hosting can be handed off mid-tournament too, so the raid leader doesn't have to be the one babysitting brackets all night.
💸 About the gold and items
Blizzard gives addons no way to actually move gold or items between players, on purpose. The prize pool is a shared ledger everyone can see, and the Trade button opens a real trade window with the right player already targeted, but the host still drags the payout in by hand, same as running the tournament with no addon at all.
