Summer Warlord Tournament

Post by DUEL Sylus »

It's time for the Summer Cycle Warlord Tournament!

This double elimination tournament, open to warlords only, will be held on Saturday, August 27th with an approximate start time of 8PM by the RhyDin clock.((EST))

The prizes up for grabs are as follows:

1st: Overlord Challenge
2nd: Baronial Challenge

These prizes shall not be subject to the Test of Worthiness, nor shall they count against a duelist's challenge rights per cycle. The grants are valid for 7 days after the conclusion of the tournament, after which time they become void if no challenge has been issued.

Furthermore, the winner of the challenge between the Overlord and WLT Prizeholder will be the first Overlord allowed to take on their own Squire. The squire may be any duelist on the standings ranked Grandmaster and below and their symbol of station shall be...
The Shield of Gondar

While not having any association with the First Overlord, it is tied to the legacy behind the first Overlord for being the first in Arena Existence. An hoplon style shield of wood with a thin layer of polished bronze over the surface. The Shield of Gondar is known to change its appearance to reflect the Squire using it, though this is not always true. How much the shield can do depends on how much the squire themselves can unlock.

With the nature of previous Squire weapons, the power of the shield can either help or hinder the Overlord's Squire. It holds two enchantments. One allows the squire to reflect light from the surface of the shield in an attempt to blind their opponent and the second allows them to bend light around their person in a momentary chameleon state that does not always work.

Remember that you must have 1 regulation duel on record since the last tourney in order to be eligible to join. Please sign up below as seeding will be based on registration order, with walk-ins being added as they arrive until approximately 8:10pm, after which seedings shall be locked.


((The 5 minute rule will not be put into effect unless warranted, and at the caller's discretion, but please try to be courteous to your fellow duelists. Example of what warrants the rule to be put into effect: 30-45 minutes have passed and only 3 rounds have been called.))

Prize Pool Updates!

The previously stated prize of an intercession free baron challenge may instead be taken as an IOU for the barony that will become vacant pursuant to the coming tournament of barons (not yet announced, but should be held in the next couple weeks with the winner ascending to Overlord).

Aditionally, since there is currently no Overlord to be challenged, the seven day period in which one must utilize the overlord challenge prize shall be extended to seven days after the new Overlord is officially recognized on the standings.

So, to recap, the prizes are:

1.) A test free Overlord challenge, to be issued within 7 days of when the next Overlord is on the standings, and;

2.) A claim to the soon to be vacated baron ring of the forthcoming barons tournament to select a new Overlord OR an intercession free baron challenge. (to be decided at the time the prize is claimed).

Thank you and good luck tonight!

Of a HUGE pool of four, Claire, Terry King, Rhiannon and Xanth the Manth, Terry King went undefeated the whole of the night and defeated Claire Something or Other to win this cycles Warlord Tournament.

Terry King has taken the Future To Be Vacated at a later Date
Claire has taken the Future challenge to the Future Overlord from the future Baron's tournament to be named later.

Thanks to all who participated.
