Title: Weekly Tournament - July 5th - Quanta Control - Upgraded
Post by: Submachine on July 01, 2014, 01:11:49 pm
No, this is NOT King of the Hill. Neither Sacrifice. This is a completely valid tournament idea that we picked from the Your ideas thread.

Weekly Tournament - July 5th - Quanta Control - Upgraded
We are still here. Organizers: Submachine, Dm1321, Higurashi, n00b, Calindu or Vineroz

Players who lose their quarterfinal (Top 8) matches will compete for the 5th and 6th place prizes in a mini-tournament. Prize-eligible players (namely, ones in the top 8) who leave the tournament without notifying the Tournament Organizer of their intent are considered to have forfeited their match, and also their prize.

Tournament Organizer Note

If you think that there is an overpowered card that should be banned, don't say it publicly in the comments. Instead, send them to Submachine or Dm1321, who will privately discuss whether the card is really OP or not.


Congratulations for the winners!

FAQ:

If someone arrives late, the organizer will randomize 3 elements for him/her.
The 3 elements you choose will be public from the beginning.
You can use monos, duos and trios too.
These cards and their upgraded variants are banned:

Why Discord and EQ are banned in a tournament that is called "Quanta Control"? :P

Neither my upgraded card pool nor my willingness to be up for a 6AM tournament is sufficient for this one :P.  See you all next week!  Looks like a cool tournament!

If I choose  :air :darkness and  :time I can not play FFQ, since the ability is :life, right?

Shouldn't Mutation, and Fallen Druid be banned, since those would make creatures that might not be in your element.

And if earthquakes banned, why not trident.

Also wouldn't nova, let you use any quanta. And wouldn't steal do the same thing, as well as mindgate.

Those cards that are originally not in your element but can give you cards that are from other elements are allowed, because they don't break the rules.
Trident needs minimum :water and :earth to be declared by a player, so not only will it become expected from someone, but it will also have 1 turn vulnerability to PC before using it.

-What about mark cards? They are considered other cards? Or are they allowed?

PS: ban dim shield or we'll se a mono :aether abuse (imho).

General tourney rules state that "Standalone Mark cards belong to their element and is treat as the same as a Pillar for the purposes of official organized PvP unless stated otherwise."

Mark cards - as it can be deduced from the banlist - count as cards of their respective elements, just as CuCN said.
About dimshield, people who find it OP can choose their starting elements to be able to go around it. Having PC in at least 1 of the 3 elements is helpful. ;)

We had 2 early disconnects and I beat his AI both times. I offered to keep trying but I think he was having connection problems anyway so kindly gave me the win.
