Hello everyone, I'm glad to announce the Showdown Tounament,with a free of charge inscription. The prizes will be unlocked based in the number of players (in the moment there are 200€ in rewards), in less than 48h we´re the tournament with the most participants ever.: First phase: The participants will be assigned to groups of 4, to play a classification league. At the end of the league, the 64 players with better results (if the tournament gets enough participants, we will rise to 128 players, adding a Tournament Round to the Final Phase.) In this phase we will use the TTS32-ALLSTAR Mod: All 32 Characters are allowed; roll a black dice to choose who will be the Player A; A bans a character - from the rooster of 32 - for BOTH players, B bans another character for both, A bans a second character for both and finally B bans a second character for both of them. 4 characters are banned; Next A & B altern to choose characters from the 28 left (with the Zlavin mod), A future modification of the mod is possible for balance, but every change will be announced with time enough. Missions: TBA Final Phase: Only 64 players (maybe 128 players), the format will be a double elimination tournament (the players will be eliminated when they LOST TWO MATCHES, you can read more about here). A new mod will be used in this phase: The lineup of each player will be formed by 10 characters; they roll a dice to choose who will be Player A; A bans one character from B lineup, being banned for both of them, B bans one Character from A lineup, being banned for both of them; then A & B will make their picks, blocking their selections to the rival if the same character is in both lineups. Escenarios: TBA Today there are 117 contestants, if you want to jump in, you need to do it in the telegram group : The Hexadome! TTS -> https://t.me/TheHexadomeTTS Important Dates: - May 16th: end of inscription - May 16th: group announce - May 18th: First Phase begins Final Phase This tournamente will have a Double Elimination Tournament format (this format will eliminate competitors when they lose 2 match, you can know more about here). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-elimination_tournament During this phase the only sponsor avalaible will be Keller Resources. The board for all the matches in this phase will be Corregidor Praesidio. The initial pairing will be done randomly, pairing the 1st ones of each group against the 4ths, and the 2nd ones against the 3rds (refeiring to the group classification of the first phase). In later rounds, the players who loses will go to predefined positions depending of the initial pairing (all possible crossings will be visible from the publication of the initial pairing). The mod selected for this phase is MOBA (Corvus Belli original), as a preview from AGL4: The players lineup will be formed by 10 characters. To make the teams, the players will show the lineup to his opponent, and choose randomly who will be Player A and Player B.

Ties: Still deliverating (This part will be updated as soon as the poll ends) Another important things: - Casting: any match of this tournament can be suggested to be casted (in spanish twitch.tv/vasallusgame, in other languages will be determined). This is OPTIONAL, the organization requests the good disposition of the players to them, especially in the last part of the tournament (in the great Final could be a requirement). - Tournamente Rules: - Damage Resolution: in the attack secuence, the damage will be applied obligatorily in the resolution of the faced Roll, en la secuencia de Ataque, el Daño se aplicará obligatoriamente en la resolución de la Tirada Enfrentada, ignoring the optional application in the Attack Effects phase. - Coverage: in case of having 5 visible vertices, and that the sixth is visible only by plotting the LoS on the edge of the Target's square, having an adjacent Occupied or Blocked square on that same edge, the Target will be considered in Coverage (adding a black die to your roll as usual). These tournament rules will be valid until the end of the tournament round in which there is an official resolution via Corvus Belli FAQ. These FAQs will be announced on the tournament channel You have to send me the teams (10 aristos) before 28th Sunday at 23.00 (Spain Time) See you in the Hexadome!
So cool, I'm in ! I forwarded your annoucement to the French forum, hoping to drag people from there. Thank you for organising this
This second phase is going to be legendary! Will we be able to see the table with pairings (once drawn) somewhere with the updates?
