Having missed out on tourney training techniques since '86, I have a question that any of you vets can field with ease. Does a warrior - in this case a decent basher and a TP - who has not been optimized for a tourney, such as minimizing their regular arena fights to be in the top of their class, etc., have any chance for success?

I would tend to think (I don't know since I've never been in the situations) you definately have a shot with the proper matchups and if your skill levels are adequate to fight against the top of the crop, but just imagine the success the warrior would have had if he would have been perfectly timed.
Sorry, old friend, for not writing you sooner, but with life and school now my time is very limited. I get lucky to get time on this forum. I'll shoot you an email later.

A chance, yes.
FE optimization is very important, however.
Our opinion for equal location in the FE (e.g. 8FE in Inits) the TP has the better chance.
