85.236.100.188:11257 <- Open TS for the event!

System:

Adirain - get your **** moved

Main station: V moon IV - CBD Corporation Storage



Brackets:

Solo: http://challonge.com/jgkmavj3

2v2: http://challonge.com/7wsvs2r5

Solo may change if we get another sign up, otherwise this is how it is.


OFFICIAL TIME AND DATE:

Solo Bracket:

Friday 26th 20:00 EVE time until its done.

Teams Bracket:

Saturday 27th 21:00 EVE time until its done.

No idea how long either of these will take. Contestants will want to form up before this time, as this is when the first matches will start.

Any questions about any of this, feel free to ask.




I have decided I am going to host a frigate PvP tournament!

This should be a lot of fun. It will have a solo bracket and a 2v2 teams bracket with wonderful prizes!

I will be streaming each and every fight at www.twitch.tv/kar_athri and it is encouraged that each contestant record/stream their own fights if possible. Hopefully I will figure out a way to get all those videos in one place and make something awesome with it.

Below is how the whole thing will work. In order to join, join the mailing list Kar Athri's Frig Tourny and send an eve mail to Vestion Stenier-Tian from the character you are entering, saying what brackets you want to be in. For teams, I only need one mail from one member linking the second member in the mail. I also need a team name, because cheesy team names are the most important part.

I will then get to work on organizing the brackets. The mailing list is for updates/info ect that may or may not be important.





Both contestants will dock in a station until it is their time to fight. They will then join the official fleet and warp to a safe at a range of 0-20km, their choice. They may choose the angle as well. When they land they cannot move their ship or launch drones or lock each other. They then start when told. Whoever wins moves onto the next bracket. There will be a 10 minute break between fights.

Contestants are allowed to change ships and fittings between fights, but do not have to.

For 2v2 teams, the same thing is done as the solo brackets. Teams will join TS channels provided for them so they can talk to each other. Different members can warp in at different ranges. Team members cannot be changed.

In the event of a tie, being which a fight has latest for more than 5 mins and it is clear that it will not go one way or another, the fight will be reset and the contestants must both warp at 10km from the station. If it somehow happens again, fits will be put into EFT and whoever has the most dps wins the round.

It would be nice if people didn't use implants too excessively. There is no way of enforcing it, but if possible, please try to avoid rocking up in full slaves, it makes it less fair on the poor commoner scrubs.

Lastly, it would be nice, and probably more fun, if people didn't go MWD kite at 20km ships. Again, wont stop you, but just saying, real fights are brawling fights, and this is all about fun anyways.

Rules:

T1 frigs only, no faction/navy

Must be in fleet

No form of ECM allowed

No cloaks

Cannot leave area of 100km off the cyno inhib

Cannot warp after landed on grid before the fight ends

Cannot drop fleet before the fight ends

Combat Boosters (drugs) are allowed

Pod killing is allowed

Faction/dead space/officer modules are allowed

No logi ships allowed in the teams, however RR is allowed. Logi ships are fine in solo.


A date and system will be decided when we have a decent number of contestants.

Join the channel Kar_Athri for info and a chat with me and other contestants.


Prize Pool:

The current prize pool consists of the following:

Two hundred Rifters - Donated by Black Rebel Rifter Club [Corp]

Eight Tristans, four Thoraxs, two Ishkurs, one Brutix, one Megathorn - Donated by Phoenixity Monsters [Pilot]

If you would like to sponsor the event and donate prizes, please do and I will have some form of corp advertise picture in the corner of the steam or something.

Lower the arena range limit to 50-60km, let coward mwd kiter scrubs orbit themselves into disqualification?

50K Is pretty small. Frigs can go out of bounce burning one direction at 10 seconds. Keep to 100K imo

By no ECM I mean no ECM. All other forms of ewar are fine.

And as for the arena size, I dont want it too small and im not going ot outright ban MWD's, I think the current size is fair. You would be surprised how far some bralwing frigs can orbit away if the fight lasts long enough.

Not sure I agree with the rules put forward. As much as I hate ecm, bringing it to a 1v1 requires some sacrifice in order to utilize it properly. But its whatever.
Also who are you to say kiting isn't real fighting and only brawling is?

Sign me up anyway. I got dis.

Meh, I just want people to bring ECM drones or whatever and cruise to first place with it.

Also, for kiting, maybe I am a bit bias against it, but in my experience kiting is either someone getting kited at 20km and slowly worn down with **** dps, which isnt fun to watch, or two kiters fighting and then someone warping off when things get scary. Granted you cant warp off in this, but I dont want people to feel inclined to go kite just so they dont get kited.

There are no links

Im thinking im implementing a time limit, havnt thought it through 100% yet though. If a draw somehow does happen, someone suggested an EFT dps competition, but idk.

Suggestion: You could keep both contestants locked and the one with less damage will win. Or Go another round but they both warp at 0 withour repairing their ships lol. Problem is that someone WILL bring a dual rep incursus and we'll be sitting there for 20 minutes.

Durr would have 2 bookmarks in line with each other .. the fighting zone and the contestant starting zone. In the first stage you could warp no further then 30km from the fighting zone. Then you'd have to play guessing games at what range would the opponent warp at. It would give a fighting chance to both kiters and brawlers.

You shouldn't use expensive implants but you can fly a full deadspace/officer frigate? Seems weird.

Should be restricted to T2 imo. Otherwise the person who spends the most gets a significant advantage.

Mods are a bit different though, as if you die you are garenteeded to loose them, so its more risk. Not to mention, you can loot the mods if you do win.

Besides, we have to give the unskilled players SOME chance of winning ;)

I mean, just because some people don't know how to shake off a kiter, doesn't make it a bad practice. Also made 1000 times easier with boundries.

On the subject of ecm drones. If you're bringing ecm drones you're sacrificing some pretty crucial dps, especially so in frigates, to use a chance based mechanic. I think it'd be more interesting to see what people do with them rather than completely disallow it because you don't like it.

Just my opinion.

If you can indeed use any amount of pimp then there are some fits that are so gimmicky that the 'tournament' would seem rather silly. For example there is a breacher fit that can tank more dps than even the most pimped high dps t1 frigate can dish out, can do it cap stable without a cap booster and all with enough stability to tank even the heaviest neuting t1 frigate. This 1 frigate can deal over 100 dps and tank over 400 dps, without overheat or drugs.

Just saying it doesn't make for an interesting tournament if it's just a test of who pimps their tank/tackle more.
