PvP World Championship 2019 - Finals

[serprex]

Bo11

Players PM serprex with 12 distinct elements in an ordered list

A player's 12th element makes that element unrestricted for their opponent

Each game a player's mark must be the nth element their opponent chose, or either player's 12th element

After a non-PPM card has been used in by a player, that card may not be used by that player for the rest of the match (unless it belongs to their unrestricted element). Bans are not sensitive to upgrades: if a deck plays Devourer, Pest is banned too. Players should share their decks after each game

PPMs may not be upgraded, unless their element is the player's unrestricted element

Upgrades per game: 13, 11, 7, 5, 3, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13

For each distinct kind of non-PPM card in a deck, players may use an additional upgrade

After each game, players may ban one non-PPM card from their opponent. That card may not be from either players' unrestricted elements. The winner of the game should declare their ban first

1st place Match: JonathanCrazyJ vs TheonlyrealBeef

What does for each distinct kind of card mean?

Like if your deck uses NT, dryspell and trident you get +3 ups but without dryspell just +2 ups

Yes

What about Obsidian Pillar, Dark Pendulum and Mark of Darkness, also +3 upgrades?

For bans, may PPMs not of the 12th element be banned?

No & No

d2d had a 12 hour clock wardrope error & decided that he'd go with randomized elements too since www3 went that route

torb sent his elements about 15 minutes after his match with www3

jcj hasn't gotten back to me besides saying he wanted until Sunday night. Were I to randomize his picks, they'd be:

However that 12th pick is pretty crucial, so I'd allow for a swap until 24 hours past deadline (~20h30m from now)

That said, if torb doesn't mind allowing jcj until Sunday night (whenever that is, yay timezones), I'll allow it

edit

If JCJ needs until Sunday then I guess I'll tolerate it. Winning just because I got my elements randomized wouldn't feel right.

Won toss, great hand. Hard deck to counter, and all JCJ had to work with was Gravity, and Time with a load of bans.

[JonathanCrazyJ]

Great Games torb, excellent rules serp.

I got a bit tilted after missplaying in game 4 due to not doing maths i normally would have because my cat came in having been in a fight I had 4 miracles and 3 SS in hand with 45 quanta but left it a turn longer than i should against Torb's adrenaline stuff. It was the stupidest missplay i have done in years and years. After that struggled to regain my focus and started missplaying with deck builds and ban picks. However, thoroughly deserved by torb and a really enjoyable match despite my tilt

JCJ 3 - 6 TORB

d2d/www3 agreed to ignore "you can't ban cards from your own unrestricted element" after I showed up pretty late in the series to point that they'd both missed that
