Battle City Tournament (Again)?

Good afternoon friends, and Happy Tuesday. Tomorrow is Hump Day so don't be too sad. I recently joined the academy so I'm not sure if there has been one before but I have a proposal for A tournament based on Battle City. Character decks from the duelist that were in that tournament in Yugioh 1st generation. Just seeing what I can do to make it a fun experience for all of us. Replies and thoughts welcomed from both staff and non staff, thank you and have a great day :D.

Tried before but no one is active in those events.

Well, we should do a poll on what kind of decks are users like and what terms they want in a tourney so we can make another tourney with those following ingreidents. I can make a poll if our staff including you are fine with it and see what are users want in a tourney. We should have done it with our first attempt at the Battle City tournament because we don't know why people weren't active because we didn't make the effort to see why.

@tequila @anzo

First of all, thank you for your idea. Personally, I vote to agree on this. We will have to wait for other staff members to decide on this though. Also, if this event gets push out, we will need to notify people about it though, since usually people are unaware of events of DA. The thing we missing is a salesman on DA. Sorry for going off-topic, back to the discussion on this very matter now. To be honest, your idea is one that I proposed before. Though it got turned down because we have had a similar event which were not very successful before I joined DA. We, staffs, tries to avoid repeating events that were unsuccessful before. However, personally, I like and agree to this and I will adjust this whole idea if accepted. It is all ultimately down to other staff members' decision. Again, thank you for giving us a piece of your mind.

As always, the final saying goes to @DDS

Currently I am rewatching all 1st series yugioh episodes and I'm just about to finish with Battle City arc.

I support this idea and if staff needs help with decks I'm ready to help cause I've builded few of them based on Battle City decks (it's the character decks)

Now what's something what we need to clear about this tournament is the card effects. Let's take The Egyptian God Cards for an example. In anime, they can't be controlled by your opponent and got few more OP effects. Ra can be revived by Monster Reborn then go to Phoenix/Invicinble mode. 

There is few more examples, but if we are hosting this tournament we need good and experience with old fashion decks to play it.

I'm cool with this but are Tournament organiser DDS decides what tournaments we host each month.

I like the idea of doing a poll tho so members can decide which decks are played.

We can select Role Play Decks croack, like the SD tourney with pegasus etc that was very popular do you remember?

Ummm, to be honest, the anime effects of most cards will give a lot of ruling problems. I suggest if you going to use their effect in the original series, only make Ra, Obelisk and Osiris like that.


Just in case, the original described effects of the 3 cards in questions are like this:
* Osiris and Obelisk cannot be affected by "Control Changing effects."
* Ra's control on the field only follows the one that can read out the correct hieratic-text. Otherwise it stays at 0 ATK and in "Sphere Mode" on the field.
* All 3 cards are unaffected by other monsters' effects and trap effects, and are only affected by spell cards effects by one turn. (Even in graveyard) For that reason, Ra is sent to graveyard the turn it's "Monster Reborn"ed. However, this is not the way how TCG or OCG works. Therefore, this rule is going to be confusing.....
* Obelisk can tribute 2 monsters and make its ATK to "Infinite" or destroy all monsters your opponent control. That is another effect that can cause confusion.
* Ra is unaffected by all special effects that the other 2 cards activated, though all of them are suppose to be "unaffected" by monster effects. Also, for whatever reason, Obelisk and Osiris's effects can be affected by each other.
* When tribute summoned, Ra gains ATK equals to all 3 of his tributes. When special summoned, Ra either gains the amount of Lp you choose to paid or monsters that you tribute for its ATK boost.

.....there are more by let's just leave it like that, I personally thinking pulling the anime effects into this is simply not workable. Though, it's up to others' decision to decide. More like, we didn't even get a judgment to pass this tournament or not by DDS yet...

lol wtf you wanna use ANime Battle city rules? Fusion can't attack their first turn, Spell cards are always quick-play ._.

^Exactly why I don't suggest that, they can be confusing af to a lot of ppl.

lol no, @DDS

He is reading it ATM >.> n wut u even meaning by "lol no" THEY ARE going to be confusing af

No one likes aNime rules.

That's what Para is saying, Jv. He is saying Anime rules are confusing .-.

It seems we have possibilities flying all over the place here... Well I suppose that means folks would be interested in something like this.

Your Idea is being considered, I shall discuss this with other members of staff as to how viable this would be and how the tournament would be run.

I know but he thought I were saying they arent.

I was actually supporting your point, but I guess I worded it a bit weird.

No anime rules plz but I'm all for this happening

speechless words baks.

so @dds

Then if we don't gonna apply Anime rules this tournament doesen't make sense at all. That's why I've said that only people who have experience with the rules, cards and series itself should play.

speechless truth ^

The thank you goes to everyone and not just DDS. Thank you for taking the time you give your thoughts on my idea and opinions. activity and time was discussed in more than one of the replies. When we have time on our hands, which we don't right know because we are considering new ideas and managing an academy a with a lot of people perhaps I can be considered as an option for a co event organizer so when DDS can't get the info of what's going on that day I can as another alternative. Once again thank you, and continue to have a good day everyone.

I can help with event too if needed cause as I've said lately I've been working much on the Battle City deck and I was watching the arc itself. People might build the decks wrong cause there's a lot of difference between DK arc and BC arc.

Well. Their wont be decks already made for the duelist who join it so it won't be needed for you to help make deck examples if we go through with the tournament. Also others could get offended or think it's better like I do to just make their own deck from a character that was in battle city in yugioh 1st generation. But this is now based on the poll and if it should be considered that I make a poll of what our users want in the tourney.

As I said, the decks are fine either ways, we are considering the rules first, because anime rules are close to impossible to do irl.

That's where I agree, but I think that The Egpytion God Cards should keep at least MOST of their abilities. The fun is gone other way.

I didn't understand that was a concept in the idea too my apologies. I suppose it would make it feel more like the show if we made the rules like the show.

I will be adjusting the effects of the 3 cards then, however in that case, we DO need to have decks there are around those so in this scenario we may need pre-made decks, well let DDS decide the rest
