Participation
To participate, please post in this thread with your global name.
Final character selections will be due on February 12th @12EST to give time to get brackets in order.
Final selection only requires character name, not build. I would recommend not posting your power sets to avoid being countered. While each participant is limited to one character, you may use multiple builds for the same character.
Rules
The tournament will consist of 5 round-robin style, randomly selected matches.
Win = 3pts Tie = 1pt Loss = 0pts
After the round-robin, the top 4 scoring players will advance to a seeded bracket-style final four.
Allowed Incarnates
-Alpha
-Interface
-Hybrid Passive (Hybrid slotted but not clicked to be active)
Restricted Powers
For various reasons, mostly stalling, these powers will not be allowed in this tournament.
-Leviathan Mastery Hibernate
-Phase Shift
Pets are allowed and can be attacked. Players are allowed to strafe around in order to get pets in range of cones/aoes so long as they remain within melee range.
Match Set Up
Fights take place on Cage map.
Round robin will consist of 10-minute timed matches. First kill wins and ends the match.
Fight starts on pvp timer countdown. Failure to engage within the first 20s will result in a loss for the round. (Stalkers/VEATs can hide but must engage by 20s).
Finals matches will have the fight timer extended to 15 mins.
NO INSPIRATIONS.
Tie-Break Rules
Ties in the round-robin will award each player 1pt, Sudden Death mode is not counted.
If there is a score tie to enter the finals, who advances will be determined by comparing the totals of each players defeated opponents.
Ties in the finals matches will be decided by Sudden Death mode.
*There will be reasonable judgement of abuse. If a player swaps to a build obviously meant solely to stall to an SD mode victory in the final rounds, it will result in a DQ.*
Remember to post your global in this thread to be added to the participants list!
