[PRE-SEASON] 1v1 Forum Draft Series!

[holepercent]

Welcome to the Forum Draft Series!

 

Old school players might remember this series which led to some of the very best matches and some really over the top builds the game has seen.

 

The concept is simple. 2 players take turns to ban any two towers, then pick 5 duals each, ban a triple and finally pick 7 triples each that he/she would be allowed to build. You cannot pick a tower which your opponent has already chosen. All picks are in pairs with the exception of the first and last pick.

 

The towers you select are the only ones you can build in the game. Triples must be upgraded from one of the duals you have selected. There is no restrictions on elements. You are allowed to pick a tower you cannot build just to deny your opponent that tower. 

 

The draft would run as follows:

 

Player A bans any one towers

 

Player B bans any two towers

Player A bans any one tower

 

Player A Dual #1

Player B Dual #1

Player B Dual #2

Player A Dual #2

Player A Dual #3

Player B Dual #3

Player B Dual #4

Player A Dual #4

Player A Dual #5

Player B Dual #5

 

Player B bans a Triple

Player A bans a Triple

 

 

Player A Triple #1

Player B Triple #1

Player B Triple #2

Player A Triple #2

Player A Triple #3

Player B Triple #3

Player B Triple #4

Player A Triple #4

Player A Triple #5

Player B Triple #5

Player B Triple #6

Player A Triple #6

Player A Triple #7

Player B Triple #7

 

For clarification of the rules, post in this thread or ask in IRC.

 

Game settings will be insane difficulty with no additional modes.

 

Once ready, post your steam ID and time available online to play in this thread. For pre-season, this will be open challenge. If another player is available and willing to be online to play the match, you are welcome to post your challenge. Once accepted, the draft host will create a new thread to start the actual draft. When the draft is complete, both players can agree to take a few days to plan the build before meeting online for the duel. The winner of each match is the player with the higher score. If you can, post the match ID and a screen capture of the victory screen after the game is complete. If your opponent agrees, feel free to play 3 or 5 games with the same set of towers.

To help generate excitement for this; I will be supporting the future tournament with prizes. Think mousepad and t-shirt.

Sounds interesting, never really thought about this game strategically but i'm sure this is going to be full of level 45-50 busts if both players pick/ban to screw each other up as much as possible.
