B.R.U. Format:
B.R.U. will be a tournament fought between opposing teams made up of 5 members. Each team will be headed by a captain that will handle the team composition and logistics. The members of a team are not set, so anyone may be substituted at any time leading up to the tournament start. After a team has fought a round a substitution may not be made. No one player is allowed to fight on multiple teams.
B.R.U. will be supported by a custom module made by the Balion Dev Team.
Teams will be designated by the color arena armor that they wear. The available colors are white, blue, green, red, and yellow. The team's color will be given to the captain before each engagement. The number of teams expected to register is 10. The bracket will be modified to accommodate more/less teams as needed.
B.R.U. Skill Challenges & Bracket:
B.R.U. will be a test of all three skill classes. The skills will be divided in the following categories: Melee, Ranged, and Cavalry. Each skill challenge will be fought and completed before continuing. A skill challenge will be made up of 5 total rounds fought between opposing teams.
The bracket will be made by taking the total number of teams and dividing by two, unless the quotient of this equals more than 5, in which case additional team groups will be made. During a skill challenge, all teams will fight simultaneously during each round. The teams will be ranked following the completion of 5 rounds, after which the lowest teams will be drop with the higher teams advancing.
