How To Start a War

[+mmf]

Wars are set up independently at the discretion of team leaders, who can agree amongst themselves which game format and war format they would like to play in. Team leaders should use the #leader-chat channel in the DuelistGroundz Discord server to request and agree upon wars. All match results in all wars are to be reported to WarBot through the Discord channel. Every war should have its own thread in the Team Wars & Ranked Games subforum. The title of the war should be as follows:

[X] Team A vs Team B

 

where X is the format the war is played in, either Goat, Current, Duel Links, or Legacy. Example as follows:

[Goat] Damage Step vs the Seraphim

 

The "default" format for wars is typically Double Elimination, in which every team starts with 6 hearts and each player is eliminated after losing twice. Additional formats include Heart Points, which works like Double Elimination, except players can lose any number of times without being eliminated, and Crossfire, in which teams agree on rosters of 3 or more players (same size for each team), and each player is eliminated after losing once. A variation of Crossfire called ABC can be played in which ordered rosters of 3 or more players are submitted to a neutral staff member, then paired against each other. Any of these formats and more can be played for wars as long as the captain of each team agrees upon it; for example, two teams may agree to play a war in another format used in some other event familiar to the players involved. If no match is played for an exhibition war after seven consecutive days, either team captain may request that the war be ended by war staff, as explained in the thread here.

Make it a rule that a player can only be on the 3v3 Roster twice in a row before another player takes his place.

A player may not play in more than two consecutive regular season wars for the same team.

Edited this in. We'll see how this works.

I like this a lot. Always been a fan of Round Robins.

if Activity prevents it from working we can come up with something else.

I reverted to the old rules, e.g. without a restriction on consecutive 3v3s per individual, for the time being. The minimum team size has been appropriately adjusted.
