Elements PvP Tournament - Your ideas!

[serprex]

@Submachine
Why ban Nymphs? Unless you view them as a form of mass CC. Perhaps ban Blue Nymph, especially since no mirror shields
Why ban Fractal but not Mitosis?
I understand banning bolts, should be mentioned
Why ban Graboid but not Fate Egg or creatures with ablaze or growth or Lycanthrope or Mutation or Rage Potion Mercenaries? Consider if graboids would really overwhelm the meta in the face of Blessed Dive, Aflatoxin against no shields or mass CC (though no Empathic), Purify+Heal+Adrena vamps, Purify+Heal+Adrena Pufferfish
Purify not banned. 6 Purifies heal 12 per turn. I suppose needed given the strength of Poison otherwise, unless you ban poison cards alongside Purify

Particularly I wanted to ban Light and Air nymph, but then I thought that it would be easier and more fair if I ban all.
Fate egg and mutation are unreliable. I did let other OP strategies alive that share nearly the same speed to let the players choose what they can.
Other than that, I was thinking about banning growing creatures, lycanthrope, poison and aflatoxin at some point, but then I changed my mind. I don't remember why.

Elements Reunion! What have you been doing all these years?

- Your deck has to have at least one copy of each non-rare creature that matches your mark. This is a reunion, after all, and we want everyone to attend!

- Your deck has to have at least 40 cards. We need plenty of space for this sure-to-be fun occasion!

- No permanents besides pillars and pendulums. We want everyone to be sociable, not standing around gawking at enchantments or coveting rare weapons.

- No nymphs. They're haughty, and will ruin the congenial atmosphere.

Remember to RSVP!

Do a "Potluck Rules" tourney again!

[Kakerlake]

A tribute to RNG
Each player joining in the turney will add a card of choice to his/her name. This may not be changed anymore after the turney starts.

Each matchup recieves a random element. Both players may only use that element and any ammount of the chosen card next to his/her nickname.

example: Kakerlake_skelleton is matched up with Bunny_spark. The matchup element is fire.
I'll use Death Mark, 6 skelletons and 24 fire pillars. Bunny takes 6 sparks, 20 fire pillars and 4 aether pendulum.
Bunny's deck is illegal, as the aether pendulum aren't a fire card.

It's always surprising to see what newcomers use their first post for. So basically

• At least 1 copy of all creatures matching your mark, except nymphs and arctic squids
• 40-60 cards
• Only permanents allowed are pillars and pendulums
• Ban nymphs but not squids

Even if it was your first post, I'm saying that this would actually make a good tournament.

Tournament Idea: Alchemy Contest (unupped)
A player must have 6 copies of one alchemy card. A player cannot use another alchemy card (after all, this is a contest to show off your alchemy).

banned cards: shards, dim shield

[dawn to dusk]

Magician's Spell

-decks must include a mixture of at least 8 of the 'magicians cards'
-shards and upped cards are banned
-EQ, QP, Nova and Immo are banned

magicians cards:

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink

Deck import code : [Select]

4vi 52p 55t 592 5c2 5f8 5ij 5lc 5on 5rk 5us 61q 8pp

the tourney may be a hard one since most of the cards here are underused as it is...

[dawn to dusk]

Pseudo Arena (name subject to change)(server bug safe)

special rules:
1. shards are banned
2. before each match, players send a deck code to a TO. the TO will then give that code to the opponent of that person who will then go on trainer and face their deck using the 'import ai' feature.
3. you must use the deck you sent against the deck sent to you.
4. nova, immo and QP are banned

Sorry if this has already been mentioned, that is a lot to read through but I had some ideas.
First idea is called a pox tournament. In MTG a pox deck is a deck that has no rares, however because of the limited amount of cards for Pox I am referring to cards that only cost 3 or less. as 2 or less or even 1 or less would make for a very long game.

And 2. A controlled Quanta tournament. Where 3 colors are picked you may only have cards that are the colors picked, and abilities must only contain the colors chosen. So say its  you can't use tsunami because it's activated ability costs

[Shantu]

Evolution
You must include exactly one copy of every creature from every element you use. (nymphs excluded)

Evolution because of the increasing quanta costs of the creatures but I'm sure you can come up with a better name.

[dawn to dusk]

Each deck must include 6 cards that modify attack. Eg: blessing, lava golem, antimatter etc
