Battle City Tournament Is Starting! :)

Good evening friends, it's been a few days and it's my final draft of the Battle City Tournament. You will have 6000 Life Points, You will not be able to attack on the first turn. If your character you pick was not only in Battle City but also in Duelist Kingdom (Peagsus) You have the option to use a mixture of cards they used in Duelist Kingdom as well. You have the option to use 40 or 60 cards in your deck. You may only use one of the Egyptian god cards in your deck and only one copie. Only one field will be in effect no matter if their are two up. You may use banned cards. I was spoken to earlier on the note of how many monster reborn will be avaible for use, and I know monster reborn is banned so I would think you could only use one. Yugioh 1st generation had many twist and climaxes in it so WINGED DRAGON OF RA- SPHERE MODE will be avaible for use in your deck. Final countdown, destiny board, and exodia are not allowed as deck choices. The Winged Dragon of Ra will have both effects so you won't have to pick between attack points and it's effect that allows you to pay 1000 life points to destroy a card on the field. Slifer will keep all it's effects. That creator of the gods field crap will not be allowed in your deck. Obelisk can be targeted by monster effects but not traps and spells. I will not be attending the tourney but I will be spectating the duels to make sure everything is going fine. You may only have one mirror force, one swords of revealing light, and one reversal quiz in your deck. You are not allowed to use Millennium Shield in your deck. Labyrinth wall and Labyrinth and wall shadow are allowed. You are allowed to only use one Dark Necrofear in your deck. You may only  use 1 chain energy.

~ Moved to suggestions.

As for this incarnation of your draft for the Idea.. I am honestly not impressed.

Essentially because if it's basically just old character decks with some slight tweaks to the God Monsters.. Which we could just adapt one of our existing tournaments to do just that. I thought there'd be some special stipulations to make it 'feel' more like Battle City tbh.

If you were to pressure me into a 'yes or no' answer as is, I'm afraid I'd have to say no for now..

I don't assume you as biased or anything of the sort but I've learned from this experience that maybe I don't have enough experience in tournaments and managing to be a tournament organizer or your partner in it. I applied for the assiant position in staff applications but never got a response back. Thank you for looking it over DDS and I'll talk to you later.

Heartbreaker I know that you like how the oldschool anime worked. Tweaking only the god cards is really silly and expecting everyone to build a battle city deck is stupid as I said 3 times already because :
1.Not all players are good deckbuilders
2.Players are not interested in old rules
3.Players will add newer cards because they dont know the sets that were available at the time of the Battle City arc
4.This will be boring with all guys choosing Yugi/Kaiba/Marik
5.Wont feel like a battle city tournament- more like a special rule tournament

Do you want me to take over this tournament to do the character decks , brackets , rules and events?

Please let WondeRy help you with this event. Otherwise, it will be kinda boring. And I agree with all he said there. Also, I can help with building decks.

All staff application are reviewed when submitted and when a staff posistion becomes available we take a look at all applicant's and selected the best option.

But back on topic, this event suggestion still needs work because it lacks appeal.

Ok I have an idea. Let WondeRy and me help with this event @Heartbreaker and @DDS. WondeRy prolly knows how to make good Battle City tournament and I can help with building decks and the event itself.

We can't allow members to host tournaments. You could help with the ideas and such, but a staff will have to take care of hosting it.

By taking over I meant to do the base for the tournament then pass it to DDS. If I wanted to host tournaments I would have applied for staff :D

I understand Anzo, but from the feedback I received, aperently my rules are unreasonable. I want to be assiant, and it doesn't seem we have a lot of those. If so I could help with everything.

Sigh..... people please, for now we will postpone this, as DDS said no at the moment. As for my opinion, I personally want this to be an EVENT more than a TOURNAMENT. It will be way more interesting THAT WAY. Please talk to me if you are interested to make this into an event.

What do you mean by more than a tournament? Your speaking vaguely.

It means, the idea you having now is not suitable as a tournament. I can surely go through all the details, but to be short, I will just say this should be an event due to its structures, formats, and special rules. Plus DDS turned this down as a tournament already. Simply because if it is a tournament, no one will even join it with weird rules like that.

However, events are meant to have special and unique rules like the idea you proposed. Therefore, I see this will be an successful event, but will not success as a tournament. Of course, it ultimately comes down to your decision for it will be a tournament or an event instead.

I like the @Parabox idea. This should be an event.

Yeah, so talk to me if you want this to be an event, because it's not going to be out as a tournament, at least as long as DDS says so.

We could host 'Battle City' in different manners; a modern one.

The Battle City that was shown back at the time in the anime didn't tell people which decks they can use or which cards they're allowed to have in their decks. The main rules of Battle City is basically a last-man-standing wins the whole thing. We don't have to force anyone to use a premade decks that was used by Yugi over a decade ago, instead we would simply have our own version of Battle City.

 I don't understand how it can matain being based on Battle City from the show if were not using battle city decks. People will banned and overpowered cards from 1st gene that were unfair and put max copies in and use exodia.

Do you remember how Battle City was run back in the day?

Each player will have play whoever accepts their challenge, winner earn his opponent rarest card plus his locator card. We can drop the rare card part in our version of Battle City and replace it with a few DP exchange from your opponent's DPs. You win you get DPs from your opponent and also take one of his locator cards. For instance, in our version of Battle City, let us presume that each player will sign-up with 500 Event fee, and 3 Locator Cards. You win a match against someone you get 100 DP and take one of his locator cards.

It doesn't has to be exactly the same it was run in the anime, we can always be inventive.

I admire how fast you came up with such a legitimate concept. We could just make that the tournament.

@Anzo , in that case that will be an event. Because you don't do that in a tournament, correct? And if it's an event, leave me to arrange it, you know how I always have good event ideas.

I said "500 DP event fee", I didn't say tournament fee

Yes, but again, I will add something to it, to make it to be as much like Battle city as possible.

For Example: We will cut the event in 3 parts: 1) the Battle Royal City Part 2) The top 8 part 3) The top 4 part

so were not going to use challoenge I assume. just pick random names and post them as matches?

We will use challonge for the part 2.

I was merely making a suggestion there, I have no intention with interfering with this event/tournament :D

Anzo, can you look over my last peagsus tournament post or the latest post in the topic? it has importance.

So no character decks?

We host a lot of charactere decks tournaments already, a "modern" battle city Event would be much better

I don't like the idea of "Premade Character Decks". Honestly, the reason is simple: you will need to remember EVERY SINGLE ANIME EFFECTS they had in there. For example: WTF "Revival Jam" can block back the "attack" from Osiris the Sky Dragon bounced back by "Magical Cylinder" ._., "Card of safe return"'s effect allow the player to draw 3 cards instead of 1. Like completely WTF YO >.> We are not having anime effects on our cards, so there are really no points of using anime decks.

Anzo your version of the Battle City is just like a BA duel. The concept with the older decks is better in my opinion because I think that nostalgia ,and decks that the new players never knew existed,can be used (which equals fun). Also lets say that we drop the rare card part - then the event will become something like BA's with 3 lives. Also locator cards are required for the final stage of the event right? So if you give your locator cards to another person there is a possibility that the first round will take too long since some people can be stuck at 1-2 locator cards.

You can do something else like the secret dungeon event where certain mods can be the characters from the series and you start with a basic structure deck. To avoid that similarity with the secret dungeon we can think of something else but yeah an event is better than tournament for Battle City.
