New, less predictable, format for tournaments?
Well, whatever. I'm biased anyways, because I'm sick of 'x wins y' metagaming. I play VtES because that meta isn't there as much as in, say, almost anything else in CCGs. You actually play the game, not the meta, usually.
Maybe I read these forums too much then...

She's also the instant table threat, and when decks are made for such a violent meta, I'd imagine Nana's going to get plenty of challenge with Potence, Celerity, or whatever combat people will throw up against her. Animalism combat is good, and ashurs and stuff, but I can't think of reasons for her to be any better than other things out there.

Meta is the funniest thing to play

Set up a League. Or a Storyline
Any ideas?
You don´t get it. I am talking about a format that everyone can use. That can be used all over the world.

I´m bored of the same extreme, cheesy decks all the time. Ashur Tablets, Liquidation, Villein, imbued, the same combos, boring, monotomous deck archetypes over and over again, not seldom with 15+ copies of certain cards (earth meld, aid from bats, kindred spirits etc etc). Everything is so predictable, and it seems only a small fraction of the cards in the game ever see play.
Last time I checked, new variants of archtypes win tournaments all over the place. In fact, Ralf even has a section of his Blog devoted to interesting decks that do well in a competitive environment.
If you're saying "I'm bored of bleed, combat, vote and masters" then maybe you're just bored with VTES?

And what makes you think people all over the world feel the need for a "less predictable" tournament format?
I´ve talked to alot of people, all over the world. Many state they are bored of the predictable decks. Many say they like playing limited formats (draft etc) because you don´t always run into the same, strong cards and weird stuff happens.
I think you're fairly alone in your feeling that

No, I am not alone.

Sure, it´s always nice when something original do well. I haven´t said anything against that.

I have NOT said "I´m bored of bleed, combat, vote and masters". Where did you see me stating this?
I am not bored of VTES, in general. I am a bit bored of the same bleed, the same combat, the same vote and the same masters each and every game.
I think a new official/semi-official format would be good for the game as a whole.
