Hello fellow Skylords!
It is time for new warriors to step into the ring and for fresh blood to prove its worth. Who will win the Stress Test Rookies#2?
Format?
It will be a 1vs1 Double Elimination best of one tournament, the finals will be best of 3 (grand final: one match, no reset). Winners and losers finals will be all played on stream.
And it will be without the top20 of the 1on1 duel ranking (and those who have been up there). Please let the rookies step up and battle this one out.
Prize Pool! (subject to change)
1st place - 1500 BFP + a boosterpack + Lyrish Knight Promo
2nd place - 1000BFP + a boosterpack + Grinder
3rd place - 700 BFP + a boosterpack
4th place - 500 BFP + a boosterpack
5th place - 150 BFP
6th place - 150 BFP
7th place - 150 BFP
8th place - 150BFP
When?
On 06.04.19 starting on 4pm CET, the stream will start about 30 minutes in advance.
Where?
In the Sparring grounds, get the community observer maps to enable observers/streaming.
Extract the folder to Documents/Battleforge/
Organisation?
The tournament brackets will be on Challonge, so register and join the tournament there. Please use your in game account name to make communication and finding your enemy easier.

In case of problems contact me or one of my mods via Discord or Battleforge.
A list of tournament mods and organizers: DasToggy, Karlmann
Rules!
-Disconnection during a game results in a default loss. If both sides agree it is possible to have a remake.
-Not showing up to your match with after 15 minutes results in a default loss. The plan is to play a round of matches every ~30 mins.
-After your match go to Challonge and insert the result. That is done by clicking on your match and selecting the winner/stats . The brackets will be updated automatically.
-The Map Pool is: Haladur, Simai, Elyon, Lajesh, Uro and Wazhai (same pool as in ranked duel). The first match of the round will be played on Haladur, then it is losers choice. Second round will start with Simai, third one... you get the drill.
So again in short:
-Decide to play and register for the Tournament in Challonge, please use the "Sign in with alternate Name" feature if your Challonge account does not match your Battleforge name.
-Download and extract the community observer maps.
-Be online before 4pm CET on 06.04.19 and contact your enemy, invite him into a party and then host the first map (Haladur) and play the match. If you are not able to contact your enemy and he is not contacting you, proceed as if you have won.
-If you win, go to Challonge and confirm your win and update the bracket. It will show your next enemy.
-Contact your next enemy, invite him to a party and then host (Simai/Elyon/loser's choice/...). Repeat until you are in the finals.
-Winner and Losers finals will be all played on stream. Communication will be via Battleforge, the stream and Discord.
-Win the tournament and eternal glory. Also some BFP and maybe cards.
Reply in this thread if you have questions, I will check it out later. This was a lot of text but as described under "So again in short" it is not a lot of work.
I would love to see this community grow again and the competitive scene develop aswell. This is an opportunity for less experienced players to have some first hand tournament experience...again.
Please recheck this thread before the tournament in case the map pool, rules or staff/mods will change.
Best regards,
DasToggy

To encourage partipating players in this tournament, I’d be happy to donate 100 bfp per person(who didn’t win) as a participation prize ^^
@Toggy if you’re fine with that I’ll pass you the prize to distribute.
Disclaimer: this is a personal effort and not one by the official team
Hey Ultrakool,
This would be very generous of you, and I would gladly do that! Since there were 22 participants and out of those 4 got a prize and 2 players did not show up at all this would be...1600 BFP in total I guess?
Also thank you everyone for participating, there will be another rookie tournament in the future for sure!
Also congratulations to felkin for taking this tournament.

Soooo i think i didnt understand very well how does we pick the winner in a match?
Hey it is Best of one, this means the first guys to reach 1 - 0 wins.
Only winners finals, losers finals and grand finals will be palyed best of 3, then the loser will pick a map until it is 2 - X for the winner.
I hope this clarifies the problem. Stream will be online around 15:30, then I will be happy to answer more questions.
See you later,

is that really needed? you can upload them to server before the tournament. They will be there until server restart.
Hey Kubik,
Yeah I noticed that feature yesterday. If that works I can delete that line (and it would make participation easier), but some of the maps got uploaded everytime they got hosted so ...better safe than sorry.

Hey everyone,
Thank you all for the support and the nice words :-)
I know that excluding the top20 is not enough for some players to compete. Personally I think that if you take away the top ~8 it would already be enough since those guys really play on another level. Outside of those guys it becomes a lot more fun and possible to have a win. At least from my personal experience so let us try this tournament just without the Top 20. If there are a lot more lesser ranked guys who want to play tournaments...we might add the top 40 but as I mentioned above,most players below rank 10 are beatable. Should any of those players lose rank intentionally they will not be allowed to participate obviously.
Also I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the Game Masters and developers for not restarting servers when the tournaments are taking place, it has not gone unnoticed.

Challonge.com has a "check-in" option. I think it could be good to do the next tournament with Check-In so there wont be any waiting for players who signed up ages ago but had no time in the end.
Hey Taker,
I know about this option and i thought about using it. Last tournament we had 24 participants and of those 2 players did not play. I wonder how many will fail the check-in even though they want to play. So yeah it is a good feature fi used correctly by everyone but I really doubt that
. So if it is only 1-2 players not showing up that is not a big deal compared to the chaos of explaining how to check in again. But maybe I will try it in the future if everyone is a lot more familiar with Challonge.

Ooops a little mistake on my side, should be correct now. Of course it is the same day since none of us has a time machine. If you do call me ;-)
By the way the seeds are not fixed yet for the tournament brackets. They will be shuffeled right before the tournament start so it is no use to wait with your registation to dodge a certain opponent.

I like the idea to spread price pool down to reward most participants in some way. If possible with time concerns in mind a losers bracket would also help to increase the minimum amount of matches a player is able to play.
Hello there,
4 Players out of ~16 already get a reward but if it is demanded it would be possible to downscale rewards in further tournaments.
A Double Elimination Tournament is planned and will take place in the next year :-) .

Wouldn't it be more interesting/fun for new players to split tournaments up in "pro" players like MaranV,hirooo, radical X and inexperienced players?
Since now everyone knows who will win by just looking at the brackets
Hey,
I thought about hosting a "rookie" Tournament for upcoming players but there are several problems with that.
-Who to in/exclude is rather difficult since i know several very strong players who did not yet make their tournament appearance.
-I simply do not think we would have more than ~5 Participants since everyone who is not participating because they want to win the tournament will not join anyways...because he knows one player in that tournament who is stronger than himself.
Personally I would prefer everyone to compete in the same tournament and for more inexperienced players to try and get their skill up. I mean you do not have to win the whole thing, just go in for a few games.
Also we have the weekly "Battleforge Fightclub" on Wednesday evening to give everyone who wants to learn PvP or improve a platform.
