Fall Classic Tournament. This tournament will be very very different. Here's how it's operating:

It will be swiss style.

It will be *wild* (with card bans I'll get to later).

It will be you have 4 decks. Opponents have 4 decks. You ban 1. They ban 1. You play until 1 person has 3 wins, do not have to rotate decks. So you can play the same deck 3 times in a row, or each deck once. Whatever you want.

Each round will take place over a few days, and I'm not sure how many rounds we have. Will figure it out once sign ups are done.

Going to give sign ups a full week, we really want everyone who still plays to partake.

These are the cards that are banned: (Feel free to suggest more, I'm aiming for 1 per class and a few randoms)

Neutrals
-Piloted Shredder. The only real nice change to the game is the lack of a 4 drop you see in every deck. Still unreal OP.
-Dr Boom. Still the best card in the game ever. Would be a fine 10 drop. Stupid stupid card, not going to be in my tournament.
-Yogg Saron. Maybe not even good anymore, but I still hate it.

Druid: They nerfed every OP card.
Hunter: If COTW wasnt nerfed, I'd ban it. It's still very strong but OK as is. Considering a Mad Scientist ban.
Mage: Do I kill freeze, or just because people can put in Kezan it wont be strong in this? I dont know.
Paladin: Mysterious Challenger. Sorry guys, this wont be a tournament of Hearthstone circa 8 months ago. Also dont want to make people tech in Kezan or Eater just because 1 deck is super cancer.
Priest: No bans, but I do think priest is viable in this format!
Rogue: Poisoned blade. Too strong.
Shaman: I think a wild-ish format with potential chows and more board clears limit shaman's OP-ness, and they did just get a round of nerfs. I also don't want to ban out Doomhammer as that's really TOO much (although that weapon should've been fundamentally changed). So, I'll just ban rockbiter, to limit the total insanity that is Doomhammer, even though it was changed recently.

That's it for now.

I'll do some casting and stuff for some of the games if I'm around.

id ban mysterious challenger and maybe one warrior card (death's bite or ghoul?), implosion?

also, in.

we might also wanna ban Nzoth in wild

i banned mysterious challenger in the list of cards

implosion is a good idea. **** that horrible rng.

happy to leave up those warrior cards. think the issue with warrior is they have a ton of good cards rather than a specific unfair or op or super rng card

oh right.

but maybe since its wild we wanna keep implosion and ban something else? councilman or imp gang boss perhaps?

My first thought was banning implosion. That's one of the most broken cards in the game. I'm in but the formats a little weird

In

why is format weird

In if we ban tunnel trogg , though I haven't touched my na account since the last tournament so will have very limited card selection

if we play each other i can play you on EU

in

Emtomb for Priest and 0 mana 5/5 for shaman ?

tunnel trogg isnt even played until "tier 3" decks according to some wild lists

IN

why would i ban those

Do those classes have access to cards that are better/more OP/less fun to play against?

Oh, we dont HAVE to ban a card per class.

In

also, think i'd be ok with a mad scientist ban, **** that card

I would also like to ban secretkeeper, shielded minibot, muster for battle, haunted creeper, redemption, noble sac, avenge, competitive spirit, true silver, blessing of kings, keeper of alderman, sludge belcher, loatheb, tirion and rag

Give me sludge belcher or give me death

That would be generous. Thanks for the offer. Do we not need to keep the same decks throughout the tournament though?

In

uhhhhhhhhh

You do not. You never have had to keep same decks. Only rule is you cant change decks while in the middle of a match (as in, stop playing, re-create the deck, resume the match)
