Welcome to [Name needed]. There are people who fight for glory, people who fight because they are bored and people who aren't actually fighting. Can you be manage to be the last standing in the Trio League?
1. HOW TO SIGN UP?Everybody can sign-up, as long as they have a Forum account and an Elements The Game account, just post in thread.
We can accept up to 36 competitors, here. In your sign-up post you have to add 8 triples of elements, so that every element appears 2 times. These will be the elements you will use to build trios in your battles, 1 per round.
R1:
<---- This is good. Three different elements
R2:
<---- This is no good. The three elements are not different.
R3:
<---- Well... if you like building
trios there's nothing wrong, but you're not forced to put the same elements together twice
R4:
<---- Still good
R5:
<---- Good
R6:
<---- Underworld and Rainbow are not elements
R7:
<---- Good
R8:
<---- This is the third time death appears. Not good
Time, Entropy and Gravity appear only once, you need to put them one more time.
Obviously, this is an example, but it contains every error one could do while making its sign-up post.
A perfectly legal sign-up post is needed to participate in [Name Needed]
2. THE FIRST ELIMINATIONYou're going to be randomly paired with 8 opponents. The "Round" you face your opponent is very important, because it determines the elements you will use to face each other.
All the 8 rounds are out at the same time, and you don't have to play them in order. But round 8 is round 8, even if it is the first battle you play.
3. THE FIRST BATTLES!Build decks of any size, but it must respond to the following rules:- You must use only and all the elements you have selected for the round in which you face this opponent.
- Every elements must have a minimum total cost of 12.
- There must be at least 5 cards per element.
- The total cost of other cards can be maximum 3, minimum 0.
4. PLAYING THE DUELS!- You must play 5 duels with every opponent, even if you're winning 3-0. Who wins 3 or more duels wins the match.
- You may change deck between duels, unless there is a desync/timeout. A desync/timeout is a replay, unless one of the two was CLEARLY (and I mean it, CLEARLY) going to win.
- Remember, a match is valid only when you completed all 5 the matches. If you want to have more chances to pass, you better play and win even if you already lost the match.
It's a good idea to either record the matches, or take screenshots as proof, in case something weird, like a desync error, happens. Remember, a player who gets caught cheating, will be permanently banned from all Elements community PvP events, so please play fair.
5. ADVANCINGThe best 9 players will pass, based on a special score.
The score depends on:
S: Score
W: Matches Won
D(i): Duels won against player i (if you won the match)
W(i): Matches won by player i
S = W + {D(i)*W(i)/8} for every player you won the match against.
6. THE FINALSThe 9 finalists post a list of 8 triplets of elements (like you did in the sign-up topic, same rules), in the finals topic. Then, the brackets are made.
Since every player will get a bye once, every player should consider every round AFTER the round it got a bye in like it was the round before.

R8:
He faces PlayerA in Round1, PlayerB in Round2, PlayerAB in Round3 and gets a bye Round 4. That means that his Round 5 battle against PlayerOAb with his Round 4 elements.
The duels and deckbuilding happen in the same way as the eliminatory round, except that you can stop when someone won its third duel. You also get to use 3 upgrades per element.
The winner of the finals is who won most matches.
If there is a tie for the winner, the winner will be who won more direct matches. In case there is still a tie after this, a small tourney following the duels/deckbuilding rules of the finals.
