| 1v1 GameAmp tournament!!! |
|
|
|
It's still just an idea, but what about a 1v1 tournament?
The rules would be something like this:
-really 1v1, no heroes/hench
-you can enter with a charactar not with an account
-you will know against who you will fight in advance
-you can't change your secondary profession between matches
The rules can be changed, so you might be able to change your secondary profession when the tournament begins.
ENTRANCE
-free-
PRIZES
GRAND PRIZE
BIG honor
SECOND PRIZE
HONOR
THIRD PRIZE
little less honor
We will probably see a lot mesmers and assassins, but I don't think that is too bad, and we can't really do anything against it.
We have to go to a guild hall and enter scrimmage to play the matches, what guild hall do choose? Maybe the GameAmp guild hall?
Tell me what you think about it

Yeah, I thought about that, but it's mainly for fun.
If it's less than 1k it'd stay fun though

also, you may wanna make some sort of limitation on builds, like none of those perma-SF sins that draw underworld matches out to hours in HA, and if its 1v1 no echo pacifism monks :-p

You made me think about another rule I thought of:
-No healing.
and what about block? I'd say that is allowed.
and what about life-stealing? I'd say that is allowed.(you have to give your primary and secondary profession, so if you see a R/N you might want to take some counter skills)
And no echo pacifism/perma-SF is a good idea I think.
And simply the first one who is dead loses(even if the other still dies because of degeneration in example, the first one dead loses).
I think that's the easiest

The idea itself is good, but it needs some proper rules before anyone can begin, frankly for you, i prefer not breaking my head over these things.
Good Idea though.

yeah, it's just the idea, nothing serious yet.
I posted so people can add things to it(rules, etc.)
The official thread will be made if everything is sure

Hmmm few ideas on rules perhaps
1)Fights fought at flagstands(no flag running)
2)no "gimmick builds" echo sf etc etc (could make it really fun and say no wiki builds :D)
3)Kiting is allowed(that toe to toe 1v1 every RA'er demands when they get pissed is bullshit for any caster)
4)No getting NPC's involved
5)Build swapping is allowed (makes things more interesting)
6)Double elimiation format
7) X plat for entrance fee then x gold for first, second, third place
thats all i can think of atm, we'd need an admin from the site here to hold all entrance fee's

would be fun but PLS no retarded rules that healing breeze wammos would set such as:
- no healing (wtf? ofcourse with healing)
- no running (you obviously need to kite, you are aloud to run aroun the hall WITHOUT aggroing any hench of bases)
let everybody run whatever they want, just mantain some core rules. it will be alot more interesting
No ur not, ur a ranger.

I'm down.
Yet no healing is a little... lame, yet that would also make Touchers banned in which they should be.

I'd be interested, if only for a laugh!
Some ideas for match rules and such.
1) Each match should be judged and regulated by a panel of 3 players chosen by entrants (preferably those from the alliance/site that are renowned for PvP knowledge and a lack of bias in these regards). The panel's tasks will be:
-- Before each match, entrants must submit templates and equipment codes for the builds they intend to use to the moderating panel. The panel will judge whether or not the builds are 'fair*', and if in the event a build is deemed 'unfair' the player who submitted it must submit a modified version (or entirely new build of their choice) within 5 minutes, or else they forfeit the match.
* - 'Fairness' generally implies the build is not invincible (unable to be countered in a 1vs1 situation). That is to say, an assassin running a build that would be able to keep up Shadow Form indefinitely would be considered 'unfair'. That does not mean that Shadow Form is banned, it means that a player with 4 enchantments covering Shadow Form and no general means to deal sufficient damage to an opponent would be considered unfair.
Another example would be the aforementioned 'Perma-Pacifism' monk. Pacifism would not be banned, but if a character was running a build that was able to constantly keep Pacifism cast on an opponent without them being able to effectively and periodically remove it, it would be deemed unfair.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Fairness would NOT be judged with any consideration at all to the opponent. Their professions and build would have no say in judging of fairness. If a spell-interrupting Mesmer is fighting a binding Ritualist, tough luck.
-- Judges will also be present during the matches. One judge will team up with each player, and be present to make certain no unmentioned changes were made to the builds submitted to them. Any changes in skills, attributes (including attribute affecting runes) or profession will result in immediate disqualification. In regards to runes: players are free to change non-attribute affecting runes as they please (same goes for insignias), unless they somehow greatly affect the builds functional output (highly unlikely, but lets be cautious). Judges will also keep an eye out for any other suspicious activity during matches.
-- Judges will submit a final report on the matches outcome to the tournament officials (victory for player xxx, player xxx forfeited willingly, player xxx disqualified etc). All 3 judges must agree on the outcome of a match before submitting a result.
2) Competing players will be disqualified if it can be proven that they were aware prior to the match of their opponents build. To prevent such dishonorable tactics, players must assemble at the designated contest guild hall 10 minutes prior to the time final build submissions are due in. At the commencement of this 10 minute 'preparation period', competing players MUST set their status to offline, and will communicate only to the match judges in this time. If a player is found to have communicated with any other player during this time, they will be immediately disqualified* and match results altered accordingly (even after a previous result has been submitted).
* - All cases of disqualification involve the guilty entrant declared the loser for their match where the disqualification was given, and complete removal from the tournament then on after. If disqualification occurs after a fair match result is submitted, the opponent of their next scheduled match will automatically be declared the victor.
3) Players may not enter the tournament more than once. Entrants will be assigned one slot in the tournament, which will be named via their forum name (or a submitted name). Players may of course use any character from their account to enter in matches, but only ONE account may be used per slot (that does not mean that a single person may enter the tournament multiple times with multiple accounts - any player found to be guilty of this act will be disqualified immediately).
EDIT: Just though of a very important one!
4) Matches will have a time restriction of 5 minutes maximum. If the game reaches the time limit without an obvious victor, all 3 judges must convene and analyse the match statistics graph (hotkey o) and agree on a victor based on the health levels at the precies 5 minute mark.
-------------------------------------------------------------
If I think of any more ideas I'll add to this.

Honestly, no rules would be great. Whoever wins by the conditions of the 8v8 rules in a 1v1 would be considered the champ. Meaning if someone takes a stall build but you win by killing their lord... gg.

Sounds great Rogue^^
Maybe do 4v4 (with hereos)- 1st person to dp out the enemy or kill the lord wins ;)
I might be up for 1v1 as long as the rules aren't silly- eg no healing etc :P

honestly, the way I think would work best is if each set of 1v1 give the other person the build they should use. That way both sides are stuck with something horrible to use, and its the person who can utilize that the best that wins. This way it totally avoids gimmic builds, healing stuff, and all that other stuff. If you loose, its caus you gave them too good of a build, and yes, all the slots have to be filled, and it is not allowed to fill the slots up with unusable junk like resurrections etc.
just a thought :)

But then you're just filling it up with rules when you could just say: "Whoever wins the GvG by the conditions set by arena net but with only one person in their party is the winner"
(60% DP the entire team, or kill the opposing guild lord)

as it is, its 1v1 ... gg ... this is not nearly as balanced of a game as wow where pretty much any character if played right can kill another profession. There are matchups in gw that are too one sided for a real 1v1 to be fair. A great example would be having a mesmer go against a warrior ... we all know who would win, doing the actual battle would be pointless.
edit: fixed my grammar some :P

but the problem with your idea is its easy in any attribute line to give 8 skills that do almost absolutely nothing
id say rogue has the best idea so far, 1v1 anything goes untill one party is 60'ed or the gl drops

I think you're missing the point. It's not supposed to involve guild lords or any of that jazz. It's supposed to be a 1v1 match between 2 ppl to determine who is the better fighter between the two. Plain and simple.

If you want to do a 1 vs 1 tourney and keep it fair you should have the same primary classes fighting each other.This makes the fight mostly about skill and a players knowledge to use them. My guild had a 1 vs 1 tourney where warriors fought warriors and ele's fought ele's and so on... I actually called the tourney "Class Wars" . We allowed any secondary to be used and non participants observed the matches from observer mode just to make sure there wasn't anything unfair happening, which I'm happy to say wasn't a problem.
