I didn't think I was going to win my first tournament but I had hoped I'd at least win the first round.
Tourneys that aren't round robin generally end badly for quite a few. Half the participants won't win a single match, which can be a bitter pill to swallow, especially with how much time even newer members often spend on their picks and strats.
The best way to deal with it is focus it into ideas, then come more prepared next tourney. Even epic amounts of effort and ingenuity won't always be enough to win, but it makes wins more likely.

Bada, Digi, or PR, could one of you please consolidate all of the rules and subsequent rulings into one post for a quick reference. I'm working on the ID vs PR match and I want to make sure I'm not missing anything pertaining to rulings.
Prep Time:
- Each team will have access to a "team lounge" measuring 15x15 meters with a couple of couches, satellite tv, refrigerator, washroom, and an assortment of snacks and drinks for 5 minutes prior to each fight where they can use their prep time. . No extending of that prep time via any means (ie speed force or time manipulation).
Equipment:
- Characters are allowed to carry only what they normally have in their possession. For example a Green Lantern get his/her ring but Reed Richards can't go back to his lab for the ultimate nullifer or anything else.
Special restrictions:
- Power Duplication: Banned
- Power copying: Banned
- Constructs/Summoning: No summoning and only constructs similar to a Green Lantern's are allowable.
- Time Manipulation: Banned
- Matter Manipulation: Banned on opponents and environment-large scale (ie no turning the entire planet into swiss cheese) otherwise allowed
Reality Manipulation - Banned
- Speed Force: Banned as a method for stealing speed or extending prep time, otherwise speed force characters are allowed
- Meshing Limit: Power amping is allowed as long as it does not put a character above the Herald limit and can be accomplished once the fight starts or in prep time
- Do feats by the character count if they are in comics that come out after drafts? Yes, as long as they are consistent with the characters' other showings
- Magic users are allowed, so long as they obey the rest of the limits
- No immortality or physically indestrucible characters and no charcters able to continiously transfer their consciousness to an endless number of bodies - one death = out of the fight.
- no teleportation
- no tech creation that has the potential to raise any team/character above the herald limit
Trade Round:
After the third draft round is over and before the actual battles start, we are going to have a "character trade" thread. This means that if one team desires to have a character from another team on their side, they must offer one of their choices as a trade in order to get him.
Drafting Format:
One person will debate for one character on a given team, the other person will debate for the 2nd character, and then they can both use/share the last character for debating.
That means both debaters will have to declare who they are going to be debating with. However, this does not have to be determined/announced until after the drafting and trade rounds are finished.

Yeah, but the individual rulings carry forward into future matches and should be saved here as well.

They are, everything was ruled legal in our match. They will be making changes after the matches are judged.

No need to be that way. If I ever get in another tournament I'm going to take a more active role in devising the plan and I'll be sure to follow the rules. Don't get complacent Galan, I doubt your next match will be so easy.
complacent? he'd have had to have done something to get complacent. 😐
Question (since nobody has really even adressed this existence from both sides besides the OP):
Wouldn't the Crimson Bands of Cytorakk seek to only ensnare the ones it was cast on? Since it was cast on the whole team that cast it, and the Crimson Bands to my knowledge have never been used as a shield like that by magic users... and I've seen Doom put in his own Crimson Bands before, I've been wondering if it would work as a shield, or only an ironic trap if you will.
Originally posted by illadelph12Even if, Doom is not Strange, especially Classic who could just summon Eternity on a whim.
Dr. Strange has used the bands numerous times as a shield and trap iirc.
Meh.

As well as the concentration to hold it (as it is no just think it spell), attack, and do all this other stuff makes me wonder about it.Meh.
