[Starfight Tournament]: 17th Generation Drive!

[Kisaragi Zane]

Hello, hello, cardfighters! The Starfight Team is back with our brand-named, Starfight Tournaments! As promised we're going to continue doing regular tournaments until another event shows up, since people want to play with new cards and win sleeves and have a good time. We've decided for this tournament to be a Double Elimination Conquest Format for everyone to come together and have even more fun with our crazy, amazing starfights!

• Clan Mixing is not allowed! (Exceptions including Blaster Dark in Majesty Lord Blaster and Reverse Units & Dragonic Overlord The Rebirth in Glendios.)
• 1 Mulligan Rule (You're allowed to mulligan ONLY ONCE at the start of the match).
• Match Types: Best of 3!
• The results of all matches should be posted on this thread by the winner like this: For Single Tournament or For Team/Tag Tournaments.
• Any disconnections from a game due to error message (with proof provided) is warranted a rematch if it's the first one. Otherwise, disconnections are treated as a game loss and any further disconnections are considered an instant match loss towards the disconnected player. (Exceptions being if the entire server disconnects and multiple participants have disconnected.)
• After a round has started, you have ten minutes to begin your cardfight. If you are not present for your fight after ten minutes, your opponent can call Tardiness and you will be given a Match Loss.
• If you do not make any legitimate movements for more than 5 minutes, your opponent can call Stalling and recieve a Game Loss. You cannot be away from your fight for more than 5 minutes unless you inform your opponent that you need to step away from the match. In addition you can only step away from a fight twice. If more, than your opponent can call Stalling and you'll recieve a Game Loss.
• All players must be cardfighting during the round unless your match has finished. If a player has not finished their match and is watching a separate match, then it is considered Stalling and will recieve a game loss.
• Announce the distribution of effects! (i.e. Any unit that obtains a critical effect or would via skills or critical triggers must be brought to the opponents knowledge.) 1st Offense is a warning, second offense is a game loss.
• No deck changing/editing under any circumstances whatsoever!
  
  • If you are caught using an illegal deck, you will be disqualified from the tournament.
• Any moves, illegal or lack of moves, that alter the game to an irreversible state may be reported. If reported, the game will end and the offender will be given a Game Loss and proceed to the next fight. Any further illegal moves throughout the entire tournament will result in a match loss. (Do note however, it must be reported before the match ends.)
• Any incident involving drama, bad sportsmanship, or disrespect, with proof, can be looked into and result in a removal from the tournament.
• Any use of unofficial updates/cards that results in the opponent from disconnecting: will result in an immediate removal from the tournament.
• At the end of the tournament, winners may submit their winning deck lists to the host for it to be posted on the final results post. This is not mandatory but an voluntary option.
  
  • To send a screenshot: you need only to press the S key while you're in the deck editor and it will create an image file in your Cardfight Area folder.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT



For those who don't know how Conquest Format works, I'm here to explain since this was done previously in tournaments and was the theme for Starfight Team League Winter.

At the start of each round, you and your opponent will pick one clan from each other's list, and ban it's usage from the player during the round. You may either tell each other the chosen clans or ask for a tournament host; in which case both you and your opponent will message said host with the chosen clans, and the host will announce it via Discord or on CFA Chat for both players to see.

In order to advance, you must win with both of your remaining decks - essentially Best 2/3 like always except on Game 3 you have to use the deck that lost.

Please remember to register your decks as instructed up above and do note that all clans must be different from each other.

Spoiler Alert: Get used to this format for tournaments until new set/rules drop. :^)
