King of the Hill

[DevilLoss]

what if we use
shoes=relic
robe=shield
scepter=druidic stav/longsword
throne=discord/other rare weapon
crown=pharoh

this would work uses things from the game and everyone nows what these cards are

Hm...but I'd rather have something from each element or none from each element (other only).

soo

shoes = relic
robe = dirk
scepter = longsword
throne = shield
crown = shard

ehh...
I think I'll just keep all the things as is..

actaully i like it like that but idk about shard the rest makes sense but maybe change longsword and shield and shard idk i dont feel it should be at the shard posistion

Replacing those names is more difficult than it sounds because Elements doesn't have that many "items". We are basically left with permanents, and most of them don't really fit.

I think that only easy choices are Relic and Shard, since they are clearly items that you can take in your hand. Taking at least one weapon, and maybe a shield, also makes sense.

shoes = relic
robe = dirk
scepter = longsword
throne = shield
crown = shard

That list of yours looks pretty good I think, although Longsword and Shield are a bit boring. I think the items should be more unique, for example using Trident instead of Longsword. Then again it doesn't matter what the items really are because that's not what the event is about.

Could you please  clarify about the using same decks part? I can't seem to figure it out . ( maybe cuz im getting tired, but still i think clarification wouldnt hurt)

[Pineapple]

Winners who were originally the higher rank must use the one of the decks they used this round within the first two battles of the next round.

Within a pair of participants, one is a higher rank than the other. If Person A was rank 2 and Person B was rank 3, and Person A beat Person B two games to zero games with the same two decks, then if Person A doesn't use that deck the first round he must use that deck the second game or he will automatically forfeit the second game.

i understand completely how this work and i like all the limitations involved to ensure this isnt heavy RNG/luck-based event
i tried to play out this event in my head (as i always do with any event) and honestly its quite amusing
you've given much thought about this whole thing, thats for sure

reasonable idea... but I don't think it will be that easy to understand for certain people (i'm looking at you all those less-than-10 post people who have been on the forums for 3 months)...

robe=shield
scepter=druidic stav/longsword

crown=pharoh

this would work uses things from the game and everyone nows what these cards are

i reckon:

shoes=shard
robe=cloak (wow)
scepter=trident/druidic staff
throne=any shield
crown=pharoah/anubis

or maybe you could send message saying what your such-and-such is, or something

Again,  I want each item to be a single card, and I didn't want anything to be non-other because  from all 12 elements or none of them. The problem with that is that there are more than 5 elements there's no clear indication of what element is better than another, what other card is better than another other card, and most importantly what card should be the "crown" while still making it "King of the Hill."

I'm still taking note of these suggestions though, so everyone: feel free to suggest any names, even if it doesn't fit those limitations! ^^

i have a suggestion for item name swap and it doesnt fit the event title...but then again, nothing is definite, not even the title

instead of using royal artifacts (i personally have no problem if you keep it that way as a tie in with the event title), how about 'avatar' (i dont want to say pet because we already have another event with a complex pet system)
something like :-

shoes ->  Mind Flayer
robe ->  Blue Crawler
scepter ->  Steam Machine
throne ->  Toadfish
crown ->  Ice Dragon

just using Water because they have some diverse creature cost among all
OR using diverse creature types but with no confusion about which fares better among themselves like :-

shoes ->  Photon
robe ->  Antlion
scepter ->  Fallen Elf
throne ->  Immortal
crown ->  Phase Dragon

you know instantly which is better ( Photon < Antlion < Fallen Elf < Immortal < Phase Dragon )
OR using in-game rare weapon as item, again using quanta cost as point of reference

shoes -> Vampire Stiletto ( )
robe -> Druid Staff ( )
scepter -> Lobotomizer ( )
throne -> Pulverizer ( )
crown -> Eternity ( )


personally, like i said before, theres nothing wrong sticking with what you've got but if you want to make it more elementsy you can use different category than 'items', this would require event name/title change but i'm sure you can still make it work
again, just my personal opinion

This idea has sort of died on the vine.  Let's pour a little water on it and see if it can grow again.  patch, are you still active with this idea?
