Trials Hype

• Shards are banned. Upgraded cards are allowed, but restricted. Upgraded cards are not required, either.
• Discord, Fire Bolt, Devourer, Holy Light, Reverse Time, Black Hole, Earthquake, Dimensional Shield, Wings and Trident are banned.
• At the beginning of the tournament, choose an element (pm to organizer. If organizer joins, (s)he will announce her/his element publicly in advance). All your decks for the rest of this tournament need at least 50% of this element. This element will be included in the bracket.
• Your deck can have any Mark.
• Up to 50% of your deck can be upgraded. At most half of these upgrades may be from outside of your chosen element.

Tournament Organizers Note

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: Percentages?! I can't math!
A: Can you even grammar? Fine, here is a table:

Spoiler for TABLES:

Deck size	Minimum in-element cards	Maximum total upgrades	Maximum off-element upgrades
30	15	15	7
31	16	15	7
32	16	16	8
33	17	16	8
34	17	17	8
35	18	17	8
36	18	18	9
60	30	30	15

Q: What if I wanted to have 4 in-element upgrades and 5 off-element upgrades in a 30 card deck?
A: Since you don't use more off-element upgrades than would have been allowed had you used all available in-element upgrades, I see no problem with it.

Q: What is this "trials" you speak of?
A: I suggest you check out the trials section for all the details. Even if it's not currently active, the most recent rules topic should give you a basic idea!

Q: Pillars, Pendulums and Mark Cards?
A: All count as cards for their respective element. Mark Cards do not count as "other".

I derped and put up conflicting dates. The timer was correct: the tournament takes place on Sunday the 12th. The titles have been updated to reflect this.

Can I ask why holy light is banned?

Can I ask why holy light is banned?

Holy Light is banned in most cases where you can see the opponent's element. Say you choose darkness or death, for the rest of the tournament you are restricted to not playing any Darkness/Death creatures just in case the opponent decides to splash Holy Light and screw you over
