  • All matches will be 10 minutes in length.
  • All matches are required to leave Diminishing Returns enabled. This means that the "No Diminishing Returns" option is not to be selected.

  • All matches are required to have Heal Decay disabled. This means that the “No Heal Decay” option will be selected.
  • Teams may agree on the map of their choosing. If both parties can not agree on what map is to be used, then the map will be randomly selected by the arena system. No map resets will be permitted, including for cage matches.
  • One Reset is permitted for player disconnect within the first 90 seconds of a match. Any disconnects after the first 90 seconds (or a second disconnect) will result in the team having to play shorthanded.
  • Spawn camping is not permitted. If spawn camping is reported, the match will be repeated AFTER the Round Robin segment of the tournament has completed WITH the event host present. If an event host observes a team spawn camping they will be immediately disqualified from the tournament.
  • Only inspirations and temp powers bought from the arena store are permitted. SoW's (Strength of Wills), present inspirations, and/or base buffs are not permitted. Any player is subject to random checks by the event host. Refusal to accept the trade or team requests by the event host will be grounds for immediate disqualification.
  • Please be respectful to your fellow players by refraining from "trash talk". A player may be disqualified at the event host's discretion.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS


The Elimination
  • The Elimination Round will consist of three 3-vs-3 matches.
  • Players will be randomly assigned to a team by the event host.
  • Players will be reassigned to a new team between each match.
  • Matches will be scored based on a Swiss Style Point System. 2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie/draw, 0 points for a loss. If a team forfeits (or refuses to fight their opponent) the forfeiting team will recieve 0 points, while the remaining team will receive 2 points for a win.
  • The players with the 9 top scores will pass to The Semi-Finals round. In the event of an uneven number of players (not divisible by 3) the players with the lowest score(s) will be eliminated in a free-for-all match.

The Semi-Finals
  • The Semi-Finals round will consist of a 3-vs-3 Double Elimination Tournament. Players will participate in matches until they have 2 defeats.
  • Teams will be selected in a “Kickball” fashion. Team captains will be randomly chosen by the event host. Each team captain will then take turns selecting their teammates. You will keep this team for the entire Semi-Finals round!
  • The players on the last remaining team will continue to the Finals round.

The Finals
  • The last three players will compete against each other in a 1v1v1 match.
  • The player with the highest score will be the event champion.
Good Luck! Have Fun!

Can't you Edit it yourself?

And it sounds like a great event. I would bring a buffer for the 3x3, but that last 1x1x1 makes me think twice about it. I must ponder . . . .

Sadly the Title can not be edited once its put in. I asked Nivi to change it and she did.

Yes this event is something to think about. While being a buffer the firt few rounds could help your team in the single rounds its gonna be a challenge.

I forgot about the prize. The winner will receives a Knives of Artemis code and I am throwing in 500 mill Infamy.

The 500 mill is not part of the standard prize but I am throwing that in myself.

Well sounds like fun so count me in I don't have too many choices for what to bring but squishy to farm is always good for the other team lol. I still lol at the 2v2 finals with everyone after me.
