Instead, send a private message to Tournament Organizers, who will privately discuss about it. Thanks for your cooperation.

I'd add Scarabs and Mutation.

[Wyand]

and Fallen Elf/Druid! (At least Druid!)

ps: +SoW

ps2: Crusaders? I see, no weapons, but we should add Dagger/Dirk.

ps3: Vultures are useless without Cats.

ps4: I guess SoFree is banned for a reason.

ps5: Adrenaline?

[InsignificantWeeaboo]

Rage Potion should be added

[Wyand]

I think there is a reason there are no CCs like RP or BB. (Or RT which could beef up a skelly, too.)

[Zso_Zso]

I added scarabs and SoW, those I just missed but fit the theme perfectly.
Rage does not fit exactly, as it also reduces stat as much as it grows, plus it can kill creatures with too low HP.
BB is a closer call, but I would leave it out due to the 6 turn delay making it more of a CC rather than buff.
SoFre is also thematically different, it doesn't actually buff the creatures just randomly the effect of attack.

Adrenaline, hmmm, a bit thematically different, although I can see the argument to include that too, so I did.

Mutation: the upped version was in already and the unupped can be worse or even kill so it does not match the theme.

ps: on the other hand I removed fractal as that adds cards to your hand, which is clearly different -- unlike mitosis / PU which adds new copies right on the field which is a kind of growth.

[shockcannon]

This tournament is hilarious. RNG fest incoming.

[Wyand]

Thx for the additions. Can we still have Fallen Druids? They are using improved mutations...

[InsignificantWeeaboo]

Now that we have Adrenaline, are we allowing Green Nymphs? They can use the adrenaline ability on themselves, increasing their attack stats.

[Wyand]

While I have Green Nymphs I'm strongly against the usage of them in this tourney.

also: Purify?

[Submachine]

The tournament is today, so no more changes will be added to the rules.

[Submachine]

The tournament starts in less than 3 hours.
