DETHBOL Tournament!

Post by +Veritas »

What do you get when you combine team sports with chaos, pvp, and a gauntlet of barriers and obstaces?......DETHBOL!

Objective: You and your 3 team members must move both of your team's balls (located in the opposing team's field) all the way down field to your team's goal box.

Dangers:
-PVP (Players can use wrestling with special moves, archery with regular bow found on the ground and special moves, and spells scrolls found randomly on the ground. Scrolls available are: Paralyze, Fireball, Meteor Swarm, Wall of Stone, and Poison Field. All items found on the ground that are not game balls will decay in 2 minutes)
-Randomly spawning teleporters that move you away from your current area. More of an annoyance than a danger.
-Stationary blade spirits by each goal that attack both teams
-Two slow-moving, wandering demolisher blades that can one-hit kill
-Strategically placed walls for creating choke points for moving the balls down field
***While your team's goal is to place both balls in your goal box, the other team can do anything they want to keep you from doing this...which includes moving your balls further away from your goal

Below are snapshots of the field...

Each team can have a max of 4 players. NO PERSONAL GEAR WILL BE ALLOWED ON THE FIELD. All game gear will be provided to the players, including skill bonus robes to even the playing field as far as skill levels go. The tournament will be based on a random assignment of teams and will progress through a bracket-like match-up. Each individual game will be a best of three situation, where all three games will be played to indicate team rankings and matchings.

Go ahead and post your team members (4 at most) and the team name (follow shard rules) on this thread. I think I will hold the first games of this tournament this Saturday at like....1, 2, or 3pm. Unless I have an overwhelming number of players asking for another date and time.

seeing that there are only 2 teams registered i also suggest maybe that we bump it back a week. even though i'm really interested to see how this is played. :( but sometimes patience is it's own reward.

Since there is a lack of teams...I will postpone it to next weekend.

Remember...you NEED to be on a team to participate...It will take me long enough to check for all gear being removed from your character...to then organize everyone into teams and then set up the matching all before the event will be too much.
