However, I 100% support what you've proposed if someone fails and there is time left on the duel. It would even fit with the concept, just give the various NPC's lines such as "Hah! That was what the "best" looks like on your side? Pathetic!" and simply have the following challenger step into place to, you know, try and show something better. Sorta like the crowd watching and someone stepping in from the audience. I'd dig that change.
I never was complaining about others getting the queue - that's been a long-standing issue since Bozja showed up in 5.35, namely with people being annoyed(including myself before I stepped back and thought about it) about people already with the titles doing the fights for the 99 Lockboxes alone. If they've cleared the CE without getting hit, good for them - but this bottleneck to this particular content is a major flaw. Yes, we get it's a 1v1. Yes, we understand it's supposed to be personal in a way; but by no means should entry be barred just because of a lottery and the guy who doesn't know what he's doing gets the prog he needs. All that does is cause needless frustration and resentment among the playerbase.
