Even if a streamer gets hold of Mayorship, it will be required for people to vote each month. A streamer is a really bad mayor, because all of his/her strategy will be plain to see for everyone, even enemies trying to figure out defenses. So probably, if you have a house in such Node, it's not really a safe choice. Sure, people might vote for streamer the first time, then lose all houses, resources to a Node War, and stop voting streamers.

It may be a 1 on 1 ladder tournament.https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Military_nodes Economic, you have to have lots of people donate a lot of gold each time. No matter what node type, the streamer and all followers would have to already be a citizen. Since there are soft caps on population, they would have to find a node at the start, all become citizens, and then they could control it going forwards. But then everyone else could just leave and siege it with alliances. Coordinating that many people to be all citizens of one node would be very improbable.

In a game based on hard counters random 1vs1 pvp tournament will never work. It would be more about which class drew which class than how well you played.

Which is why the militaristic election will require for you to create a champion, rather than use your own character for combat.

If the mayor is bad, someone will most probably step up and take his place. If the mayor is a good ruler and does stuff properly, then i don't see why people who are happy with him would want him replaced.

Because it will be like in real life politics, bribes will happen, favors will happen, for and against parties will happen.

You think the whole point of the game is to have popularity contests that give game breaking advantages to certain people and their friends?
