Trying to do away with that pesky tier system. Here's my proposed replacement so far.

[h2]Current Tournaments:[/h2]

[b]The Humanoid Blood Crown[/b]

[i]Contenders wishing to seek access to this tournament must be humanoid in nature, and are restricted to a certain height and weight. The weapons used in these matches are randomised, and a contender must make do with what they are given - even if it's far from their skill set.[/i]

[b]Magic[/b] Here's where it gets a little complicated. List your spells, describe what they do, and more importantly, state how long it takes to prepare. Anything over [b]five seconds[/b] will require a turn to "charge".

[b]Abilities:[/b] These are the things your fighter can do without the aid of magic. This covers things like cybernetic implants. If in doubt, ask me. This also covers anything your armour can do, like cloaking.

[b]Combat Experience:[/b] Amateur, Trained, Veteran, Champion, Master.[/hider]


If you're wondering about how I'd pair warriors, I would first try to match them judging by their perceived strengths, but would probably fall back to nerfing if needs be. For example, I'd disallow a character from flying, or weaken their armour/skin, or slow them down etc. Though I'm also hoping my randomised weapon plan, will play a part. 

I intend for a weapon pool to be displayed prior to the match. It might involve a laser blaster, a P90, a chainsaw, a greatsword, a bolter, a light sabre etc. I'd then roll a dice. Would make for an interesting twist, I think. 

What'd you think?
