Return from BFA, first tourney of Shadowlands.. Get excited :)


The tournament teams are created via registration on the Challonge website. The link to which will be posted later on in the post. Anyone who's looking for a partner and wants to participate can use the Bnet community group, discord, and this forum to find someone.



Tournament Rules (subject to change):


-8 Teams, 16 people total (Subject to change based on participation; can get up to 16 teams. If this is the case, the tournament will have to be split between two days. Day two would be the day after)

Item Bans:


-No use of [Pendant of the Violet Eye] or [Meteorite Crystal]


-No use of the trinket Darkmoon Card: Twisting Nether


-No use of Dark Iron Pulverizer https://classic.wowhead.com/item=11608/dark-iron-pulverizer


-No use of Green Whelp Armor https://classic.wowhead.com/item=7375/green-whelp-armor

-No use of Horned Viking Helmet

-No use of https://www.wowhead.com/item=188415/essence-of-gossamer?bonus=6710#dropped-by


Other:

-BO5 up until the finals which will be a BO7

-The start of each bo5 and finals match will be played on Nagrand Arena.

-Only allowing comp swapping after a loss
Further clarification later in post

-Loser of previous match picks the new map

-No double healer comp

-No spec stacking. Ie. No double MM Hunter, Fire Mage, Ret Pal, etc.
You are however, allowed to play different specs of the same class. Ie. Ret pal/holy pal, fire mage/frost mage. etc.

-First round will be a comp blind pick from each team

-Double elimination with a losers bracket

-To avoid the issue of dampening starting when the gates open (trust me, this bracket doesn't need dampening) we will be starting every match as a 3v3. Once inside, the extras who are not participating in the match will leave and the match will be played out as normal.


CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS TOURNAMENT:



-None :) First tournament in about a year and a half, let's see how this goes.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Important: You are limited to two members to each team BUT NOT TWO CHARACTERS. If after a loss you or your teammate would like to change the comp you are playing you are allowed to do so. As long as the character being switched to is owned by one of the two team members.(yes this gives an advantage to multiclassers and may be subject to change but unlikely due to how badly some comps counter others). If/when a team loses, AND ONLY after a loss, they are allowed to switch to a different comp and map.


Rule Violations:

If, you are found to have violated any of these rules, it will be an automatic loss of the series. This includes POST MATCH. For instance, if the players or casters find that this was a violation after the match played out, it will still count as a loss for the team who violated the rule.


Disconnects:

In the event that a disconnect occurs, if the disconnect happened within the first 15 seconds of arena play, then the game will be reset and restarted. If this disconnect occurs after the 15 second mark then the team who disconnected will receive a loss. (Unless your teammate clutches a 2v1)


Prizes:


Due to the generous donations of both Paiid, Bray, and Pablo the prize pool for this event is the largest we've ever had.

1st place: 16 WoW tokens to your designated server, split between team members

2nd place: 12 WoW tokens to your designated server, split between team members

3rd place: 6 WoW tokens to your designated server, split between team members

4th place: 1 Wow Token

All teams who participate will get 100k split between team members


All of these are subject to change, and if you have questions, message either of them. I will give you their information on discord.


How to register:
Follow the link: https://challonge.com/1dcuej80

Go to the "Participants" tab at the top of the screen --->Create a team name ---> Register!

Important: You only need to register 1 name for your team. Each individual does not need to sign up, only one person needs to register the team. Just make sure that I know who is on that team so that there is no confusion. Please message me on battle.net at Kane98#11747 with your team members and team name.

If you are having trouble finding it (I've gotten some messages that it is not showing for some people) please message me on my battle tag and I will register you.

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A TEAM BEFORE YOU REGISTER, DO NOT REGISTER "SOLO" AND THEN LOOK FOR A TEAM MEMBER. I need to know teams, I will not be responsible for creating a team for you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



I will be streaming this event at twitch.tv/bkaned


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please make sure to arrive AT MINIMUM, an hour(8pm est) before the tournament starts. If we have everyone in attendance before the set time, we may be able to start early.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For anyone who finds bugs/items which should be banned in the tournament, don't hesitate to let us know so that we can ban these ahead of time.

Hello all, we're already at 7/8 teams signed up. Activity and interest seem to be very high!

If you sign up once all 8 slots are filled, you will go to a "reserve" spot. This reserve spot will be in case a team does not show up. If this happens, you will have first priority to participate. Also, there's a low, but possible, chance that we get 16 teams. If that's the case this tournament will span over two days and you'll be able to play like anyone else!


PS. I also ask that this be featured on the home page of XPoff. Would maybe attract a few eyes that would otherwise not notice it. Thank you!
 
FYI Prize pool has been updated. Due to a very very generous donation by Pablo.

1st place: 16 WoW tokens to your designated server, split between team members

2nd place: 12 WoW tokens to your designated server, split between team members

3rd place: 6 WoW tokens to your designated server, split between team members

4th place: 1 Wow Token

All teams who participate will get 100k split between team members



We are now accepting up to 16 teams. So, if you'd like to participate, this is a vey good opportunity.
 
Updated to no longer allow Gossamer and Horned Viking Helmet.

Gossamer, while being an unreliable tanky option, did have elements of nullifying outplay for certain physical damage classes. After some review, we felt that this trinket’s rng would not be a good fit for a tournament setting.

Cheers,
Kane
