Elements PvP Tournament - Your ideas!

[1011686]

Taboo:

Before each round, a random t card is chosen.
No card in the deck may be the same element, have the same quanta cost, have the same ability cost element or the same ability.

For e.g., if fallen elf were chosen, no card entropy or life cards would be allowed, along with all cards costing 4 quanta, and all cards with a mutate ability.

A tourney ruleset centered around cards divided based on card art. I don't think there are many remarkable features on the main art, though a few can be used. You can also use backgrounds, which usually have one color shared for many different cards.

One tourney based on this idea was 'The Shoe Cobbler's Dilemma', where the decks depended on the amount of legs the creatures had in their art. (credits for that tournament goes to mathman101) I think it was a success, but I recall lot of discussion before about the amount of legs on some arts (Bone Dragon, Shrieker, etc). Since some of the arts are pretty ambiguous, the TOs will need to do the categorizing carefully.

If the TOs agree to take on such a task, I encourage them too to create a similar tourney in the future.

Wars of the Prime Roses

• Before Tournament begins, choose whether you will ally yourself to the House of York or House of Lancaster House of Primes or House of Composites.
• House of Primes may not use cards with composite casting cost. House of Composites may not use cards with prime casting cost.
• 0-cost cards and 1-cost cards are available to both Houses.
• You may change your decks between games. However, you can never change your allegiance for the duration of the Tournament, so be sure to have all your decks faithful to one House.

[OK, this kind of ... partisan Tourneys have been recently done (as anyone aware of Odd or Even would've known), but let's divide the armory differently.]

[DarkSandman]

"What's yours is mine"

must contain  /  , any cards allowed, no more than 60 in a deck, but all decks must contain 6 PUs, and 6 Steals.

[tereret]

Decks MUST contains cards of 2 elements. No more, no less.
No pillars pendulums or marks

[AD TienzuStorm]

The only creatures allowed in decks are creatures with an active ability cost that is out of element. No limit on Perms and Spells.

Example: Lycanthrope and Steam Machine are allowed. Vampire and Arctic Squid are not.

Rainbow cards (QP, Nova, etc.) not allowed, Devourer not allowed.

A footy sort of Elements Tournament, wherein previous World Cup finalist team colors represent element combinations or element choices/limitations in the tournaments meta choices.

Weekly Tournament - Somedayth - A Game of Thrones - Upgraded

Special Rules

• Upgraded cards are allowed, but not required.
• There are six houses, as described below. Each house has two allowed elements and one restriction.
• Each deck must be built as a combination of exactly two house's rules. You may only use the elements  allowed by your two houses, and must abide by the restriction of both houses in the deck.
• You may not use deck which follows a house combination which you have used before in the tournament.

House Lannister Hear me roar!

Restriction: At least 40% of your deck (Rounded up) must be comprised of cards which have a sell price of over 50 (in their unupgraded form) in the bazaar.

Possession "Four Humors Trial"
You could say it's a miniature version of the incident those three TrOs caused, so to speak.

Special rules:

• Before Tournament begins, a player must choose a Core Element (henceforth 'Core'). Players currently attending the Tenth Trial may not Core the Element (s)he is Trialling for.
• Decks must be at least 40% Core rounded up (including pillars/pends).
• Your deck may NOT contain more cards of any off-Core than it does of your Core.
• The four Humors relate to three Elements each. A deck is considered to use a Humor if it uses, aside of the player's Core, at least one element from the Humor's pool. A mono of the player's Core will count as the Core's Humor. For example~
  • A Fire/Light stall counts as a Choleric deck for Light Cores, but it counts as a Phlegmatic deck for Fire Cores.
  • A Rustler FFQ/Hope counts as Sanguine and Phlegmatic for Life Cores, but it counts as a Melancholic and Phlegmatic for Air Cores. I don't think a Light Core can construct one ^^;
  • An Antimatter domin mono (which can only be deployed by Entropy Cores) counts as a Sanguine deck.
• After every game, you must tell your opponent what Humors you have used in the previous game if they ask, but you should not share decklist or specific cards.
• You may only use each Humor once within a match (Bo3). Players running out of Humor in the middle of a match is restricted to mono decks of their Core for the reminder of the match, with cards costing 4 or more quanta forbidden.

(The four Humors:
Sanguine: Air, Entropy, Time
Choleric: Fire, Gravity, Death
Melancholic: Earth, Life, Darkness
Phlegmatic: Water, Light, Aether
