Winter 2021 All Ranks Tournament

[Max Lager]

Coming soon to Twilight Isle! The Winter All Ranks Tournament! One night only! Sunday, December 12th at 8:00 PM by the Eastern Clock, the Duel of Magic welcomes spellcasters of all abilities for the Winter All Ranks Tournament! Come out and fight at Wizard ranking for a chance to win one of several prizes.

All entrants who pre-register before 9:00 PM on Friday the 10th and show up by 7:55 PM on the night of the tournament will receive 1 win right off the bat. Unlike past tournaments where an activity duel was required prior to participating, the activity requirement has been waived!

First place: 5 Wins (or the number of Wins you rack up through the tournament, whichever is greater) plus your choice of one of the prizes listed below.
2nd-5th place: Earned Wins plus your choice of one of the prizes listed below.
Everyone Else: Earned Wins.

Prize Pool!
Twin Win Pass - The Twin Win Pass is a special pass that is used at the end of a regulation night of duels. Every Duel of Magic duel that you fought throughout the night will be doubled! This choice does not need to be made before a night of regulation duels, it instead can be used after should the pass holder be impressed enough with their gained wins throughout the night and wish to double them.
The Twin Win Pass may be used during the cycle it is gained or during the following cycle.
A pass holder may only use one pass at a time.



Empowered Air Gem Familiar – With the aid of this familiar and the gem about its neck, the caster becomes instilled with the fury of the Tower of Air. While its power may fade, the familiar and depowered gem may be kept. Allows the user to use Elemental Fury in normal regulation duels until the next All Ranks Tournament. Unable to be used in challenges.



Mystery Box Prize! What could be inside?



The Baby Catalope! Besides being absolutely adorable and friendly, this creature (which can grow to be as large as your average size doe) leaves behind a trail of ice on water giving the owner safe passage to travel across!



A pair of Thermo-Gloves! Useful for the experimental caster in all of us!

[[OOC Info:
No activity requirement. Yep, you read that right, NO ACTIVITY REQUIREMENT!
Format will be single elimination for greater than 10 people, double elimination for less than 10.
Seeding will be based first on RoK Rankings, followed by sign up or walk in time for those that don't pre-register.]]

As we close out the year for our tournaments, the Isle has chosen to load up on tasty eats for our duelers and spectators alike! There's plenty of options of things to load up into your bellies and celebrate the end of the year with us!

Try the bite size pomegranate and brie bites, some of the snowman cheese balls with spicy crackers, or even the festive colored holiday deviled eggs!

There's turkey and cranberry stuffed pastries, the highlight of the evening --the Starlight Roast, as well as mushroom wellington!

To go with that there's roasted lunar carrots, duchess potatoes, and asparagus covered in bacon and cheese, yum!

If you're after a sweet bite or three, there's some white chocolate dipped waffle cookies, chocolate rice krispie balls shaped like figgy pudding and as always: Max's special sugar cookies! Have a bite, they're sure to brighten your mood even on the darkest night!

Then to wash it all down, along with the Christmas Special drink being served all month long, there are some specialty drinks for the evening! Try the Holiday Punch, the White Christmas Sangria, or the Pomegranate mules, they're sure to please!
