America's Angel Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) We want to find the best melee fighter in City of Heroes...is that you? What: A 1v1 PVP tournament for melee fighters only! (Aka Fightclub) When: Saturday March 27th 2021 @ 4pm PST // 7pm EDT // 11pm GMT Where: Pocket D on Indomitable Who: Anyone can join! Just post your @global name and character name in this thread to sign up for the event. Discord: https://discord.gg/B2agqnSssN (We'll be posting matchups/recording wins on Discord (via Challonge). Be sure to join the discord so you can follow the event as it happens!) Hosts: For questions, please refer to @CR Mochi or @America's Angel How it works: FIGHTCLUB is 1v1 melee-only PVP. Each match is set to 15 minutes, and it works like this: You load into the map. (Monkey Cage or Coliseum) You run into the center of it. Your opponent does the same. You hit F7 when you are ready to fight. Once you've both said you're ready...you charge into melee range and fight! You should do this no later than 14:45 on the clock. (Even if your opponent hasn't said they're ready!) Once you are fighting, no moving! (The entire fight must take place in melee range.) First KO wins - the first person to KO their opponent wins even if there's time left on the clock. Stalkers - you have to start fighting at the 14:45 mark just like everyone else. After this, if you stay in hide for longer than 10s once the fighting starts, you forfeit the match. If a match goes to Sudden death, it is considered a draw. Rules & Restrictions: Minimum level: 50 Observers must be left on. No inspirations (Switch them off in the arena settings for your match!) No switching characters between matches. (You use the same character for the whole event.) Switching between builds is fine. Allowed Archetypes: Brutes, Scrappers, Stalkers, Tanks, Peacebringers, Warshades, Arachnos Widows, Arachnos Soldiers Incarnates Allowed: Alpha, Interface, and Hybrid can be slotted. (But Hybrid CANNOT be clicked!) The Following are banned powers: All phase powers such as Phase Shift, Quantum Flight, Nebulous Form, etc. Hibernate from the Leviathan Patron Pool. (Hibernate from Ice Armor is fine to use) Judgement Incarnate Lore Incarnate Destiny Incarnate Hybrid Incarnate (Passive bonus from slotting it is fine. But clicking the power in the match is not allowed.) Non-Incarnate Pets are allowed. (Such as the Arachnos Soldier Summons and the Patron Pets.) However. If you have summoned a pet: If you summon your pets during the 30s countdown at the start, that counts as saying you are ready. If you summon your pets during the fight, they must be summoned within melee range of your opponent. Your opponent can move to fight your pets from a better position if they wish. (I.e. repositioning so that a cone attack hits both you and your pet.) You can also reposition to counter their repositioning. As long as you both remain in melee range of each other as you do the repositioning, neither of you will forfeit. Combat Teleport is allowed as long as you have it set to cast via "powexec_location me". (I.e. just teleporting on the spot.) You cannot use it to leave melee range. Scoring: This will be a swiss draw tournament. Everyone will fight the same amount of matches. We will use a points system method for keeping score: Win = 3 pointsDraw = 1 pointLoss = 0 points Winners are responsible for posting their match results in the dedicated Discord channel after their match. If you do not, your win will not be scored. (If discord isn't working for you for whatever reason, send a /tell with your match results & character name to @America's Angel in game.) If your opponent has cheated, or if you have been scored incorrectly on Discord, please contact @CR_Mochi on discord or in game. Prizes: First Place = PVP Fightclub Champion gold title and 3000 Merits Second Place = PVP Fightclub Finalist gold title and 2000 merits Third Place = PVP Fightclub Semi-Finalist gold title and 1500 merits Fourth Place = PVP Fightclub Semi-Finalist gold title and 1000 merits @CR_Mochi will also be running 5 raffles throughout the event with prizes of 300 merits each. How to sign up: Reply to this thread with your @global and character name. You don't have to say what sets your character has. But the character you bring on the day is the one you have to use for the whole tournament. (No switching characters between rounds!)

rookery. Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 This looks like fun. I assume the No Moving means literally 'nailed to the floor' so you can can't slip out of range and back in? Now to see who I want to send over to Indom. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandropo Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I will not be able to participate in this tournament because in Italy it will be late at night. but I want to thank the organizer because the tournament will shift the attention a bit to the melee 1vs1 pvp, which although not appreciated by some, is still an increasingly important branch for the pvp community. Obviously I remain available for any comparison or suggestion for future patches exclusively for what concerns the melee pvp. @dandropo 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hard to find a time that fits for everyone. I'm sure we'll be doing more in the upcoming months, I'll try and make sure one is a bit more EU-friendly with times. 1 Join the Homecoming PvP Fightclub Discord What is Fightclub?

America's Angel Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 Updated the original post to clarify the rules for using the following powers: -Non-incarnate pets -Combat teleport Also, just a heads-up. But we'll be capping this at 32 participants. I'm wanting us to go 5 rounds, and this is the maximum number our scoring system will allow. Should be fine. I don't think there's that many fight clubbers in the game. But just wanted to mention it here to avoid disappointment. The signup deadline for sending me your character name & global name is 1 hour before the event. That's: 4pm PST // 7pm EDT // 11pm GMT Join the Homecoming PvP Fightclub Discord What is Fightclub?
