Smol Kickball Event September 19th at 8PM EST

[GM Smol]

Hey guys!! Smol KB is returning September 19th, 2020 at 8PM EST, 5PM PST, 1AM BST, 7PM CST!!

 

We're adding a TWiST! A lot of you have been on this Smol KB journey with us since January, and we want to make it a little more challenging for you! 

How will this work?
 

We will begin our PvP night beginner friendly and then ramp up the competition by the second half of the night. With individual prizes during the first half, and during the second half drafted teams will be competing against each other for FULL TEAM PRIZES! We welcome all beginners and vet's to this event. This will be our first time amping up the competition at Smol KB. It'll be a good time to put our target calling, emping and target practice that we've learned over the past 8 months to the test and to experience a more challenging setting in PvP for those of you who haven't yet. 

Smol KB Introduction: 
 

If you're unfamiliar with Smol KB, it's an organized 8v8 team PvP event hosted in the arena. Along with our main focus of helping new/returning PvP'ers learn the ropes in the arena, we hold costume contests, bio contests and have several ways of opportunity to win a variety of prizes! 

Are you a new or returning PvPer? Never PvP'd before but would like to learn? Come on out to Smol KB hosted in Pocket D on Indomitable (the unofficial PvP server). The purpose of Smol Kickball is to provide a welcoming environment to casual and experienced PvPers to have fun, compete, and share knowledge in a low-stakes setting. 

For new and returning PvPers: We will help you learn all of the basic skills you need to dive into your first kickball night such as PvP specific builds, helpful macros & binds, and the basics of target locking, spiking, evasion and inspiration management. For a primer on how kickball is ran, please refer to this very handy-dandy guide created by @Xhiggy:

The Basics:

• Two experienced PvPers will be selected as Captains of Blue and Red teams each round and draft from a pool of players in the Green team. (Players that are not drafted will get priority selection in the following round so no one will sit out two matches in a row.)
• A 10 minute match will take place on a predetermined map using only small inspirations and with movement suppression and heal decay turned off.
• After each round, we will take time for people to ask questions and get advice before starting the next match.

 

Prizes and Contests:

• To keep in spirit with the light-hearted nature of Smol KB, there will be several mini-contests that will take place as the night goes on. We will be on the look-out for best costume and best character biography throughout the first half of the night. As well as a few clutch players.
 

Prizes will be available each round during the first half for the following categories: 

• Support Players (Playing support is difficult as it is and should always be awarded)
• Raffle Prizes each round to a random participant (To include Green Team players that were not drafted)
• Stand out player (Awarded each round by the winning captain to a stand out player on their team)
• Target callers
• Team Captains

 

*NEW* Prizes for the second half of Competitive Smol KB include:

• Each winning draft team will be rewarded merits per player
• Stand out booster pack (Each winning captain will nominate one standout player of their choice) 
• Target caller booster pack (winning team)
• Support booster pack - 2 Primary support players (winning team) 

• Potential prizes include: Reward Merits, Booster Packs, IO sets and Gold Titles for your individual characters in game. 

 

Please note: As discussed prior to scheduling, this event will be overlapping Xhiggy's Saturday night KB time slot. Please feel free to join us on our Smol KB discord: https://discord.gg/xxbkpnR
