Weekly Tournament - July 22nd - The Shoe Cobblers Dilemma- Unupgraded

[kaempfer13]

The shoe cobbler works very hard everyday to create shoes for all of the creatures of elements, but he is extremely busy and can never finish enough sets of shoes for everyone. As long as all of the shoes he makes are used he is happy, but if any go to waste he will retire early from the business. In contrast if more creatures need shoes then he can make, he will retire early.

Special thanks to mathman101 for coming up with the Trials Phase 1 winner idea.

If you think there is an overpowered card that ought to be banned, or you have some concerns about the tournament metagame, mechanics or other stuff, do NOT post it publicly in the comments or anywhere else on the Forums. Instead, send a private message to Tournament Organizers, who will privately discuss about it. Thanks for your cooperation.



TOURNAMENTS Q&A

Q:Is this a rerun?
A:Yes, I really liked the concept and wanted to run this since some time. Bans have been shifted around quite a bit though.

This one is very nostalgic. I hope you just hid the old tournament topic and didn't delete the whole thing:

http://elementscommunity.org/forum/pvp-tournaments/weekly-tournament-august-9th-the-shoe-cobblers-dilemma-unupgraded/

[kaempfer13]

I moved it to TO-section.
I'm fine with not participating for being able to view the old decks (though most of them are banned now anyway).

Did CCC and you favourite that old topic to remember that much about it (down to day and some participants, in your case exact link)?

[CCCombobreaker]

Well, I knew approximately when it was played (based on Trials where it was proposed (which you also linked (even if I had forgotten))) and found the gap in the archive.  a few google searches also can get you to the newsletter that mentions it.

If purple dragon has 0 legs...

I'm scared

[kaempfer13]

The TOs in the original run decided, that none of those are legs, as they are to thin to stand on. I'd say that definitely applies to the front limbs and the hind limbs dont really look like purple dragon would be bipedal either.

I think that "leg" is something else...

[Wyand]

What about quanta needs? Do we have to produce enough quanta for each creature?

[kaempfer13]

No such rule, as lame as it is to put in dead cards. I made some balance changes to discourage it and usually you dont have to resort to it.

[CCCombobreaker]

suddenly the firebolt ban seems to trigger memories of 30legged firestalls that had no intent of playing creatures.

I am surprised that Fire Spirir, Forest Spirits, Chrysaora, Arctic Squid, and Devourer count as 0 legs. All along this time, I thought they had multiple.
