Is a Flatline Barrel good for Speed Ball Tournaments?

No, I would suggest a Barrel Kit for speedball tourneys.

Not exactly. The flat trajectory doesn't give you much of an advantage because you're so close to the other team anyway. A regular barrel will be just as good or sometimes more accurate.

If you are comfortable with the Flatline though, it's not like it's wrong to use it.

Preferbly, no. You really don't need the added range. As where you do need accuracy, which is what the Flatline lacks. If you're planing on buying a new barrel for tourneys, I'd suggest either an All American or Lapco Bigshot. If you already have the Flatline, then just keep it.
