Jedi Republic - RulesThreatened by enemies of both old and new, will the Jedi Republic survive its greatest trial?Spoiler for Lore:
For over a thousand years, the Jedi have been the guardians of peace and justice throughout the galaxy. Through their connection to the light side of the Force, they are stronger, quicker, and more powerful than anyone else. Almost anyone, that is. A small order known as the Sith uses the dark side of the Force for purposes of evil.
While the Sith have know of no bounds to their evil, there is one rule they have followed throughout the centuries, which is known as the rule of two. At any time, there must always be only two Sith: a master and an apprentice. When one Sith dies, the remaining Sith finds a new apprentice, oftentimes a Jedi who yearns for greater power.
Throughout the generations, the Sith have grown stronger in secret, but now they are ready to mount their attack against the Jedi. But they cannot do so alone. The Sith are joined by the Trade Federation, the Bounty Hunters, and a massive army of Clones. Will the Jedi prevail against their enemies, or will the Sith once more rule the galaxy?
1. SIGN-UPS- To sign up, make a post in the separate sign-up topic.
- Once you sign up, select your
Faction and 5 Marks, through private message to the host. Players may sign up as any Faction except Sith.
- If you sign up as a Jedi, you may include a Corruption value from 0 to 18, which will determine which Jedi are converted to Sith.
- Players may sign up with “No Preference,” which means they will be given the Faction with the fewest sign-ups and randomized Support Elements.
- After sign-ups end, all Factions, Support Elements, and Corruption Levels will be revealed.
2. CUSTOMIZATION- There are a total of 7 Factions belonging to two categories: the Jedi Republic and the Separatists.

6. MATCHES AND ELIMINATION- Pairings are determined by
double elimination swiss. Pairings will be set up randomly, on the condition that players will not face the same opponent twice, nor face the same faction consecutively, nor face their own allegiance, nor face their own side (Jedi/Separatist), in order of priority.
- Matches are
best-of-five. The first player to win three games wins the match.
- At the beginning of each round, players are paired against 1 opponent. Players have
7 days to make the fight happen. They must contact their opponent using a private message and try to find a time that suits them both.
- Players are expected to play the entire match at once, rather than spacing out the individual games over the course of multiple days. Players are not allowed to spend more than 10 minutes deckbuilding in between games, unless agreed upon by both.
- In the event of a desync, both players finish the game against the AI. If only one player defeats their AI opponent, that player is the winner. If both (or neither) players win, the game is replayed with the same decks. Upon defeating the AI opponent, a screenshot of the turn of the win must be provided.
- If the fight doesn't happen, both players lose by default, unless one player is clearly more active in trying to find a suitable time.
- Players are allowed to use substitutes for their match, if given permission from the host.
Players must build all decks for their substitute, in order.- After the match, both players must submit their results and decks in the official thread for the round.
- Players are eliminated upon losing two matches over the course of the event. The last player remaining is the winner of the event.
- The winner of the event is awarded 1 Mark/Nymph, 5000 electrum, and a first place reward icon. The second place player is awarded 1 Mark/Nymph, 5000 electrum, and a second place reward icon (if allowed).
