Since I never posted in here, I need to comment on the tournament format, since I always comment on tournament formats. So for me, creator of the original team tournament which never took off rabblerabble, I think the format is kind of eh. Like, you /can/ call it a team tournament, I guess. Since there's multiple people involved. But it's not a team effort. It's just the sum of three individual duels. The winning "team" just happens to have the two duelists who won. Which works, I guess. But it could be better. Pokemon-style like M suggested might've been better, though it could lead to massive stomps -- or glorious comebacks. The whole varying weapons might be fun, who knows.

But imma say that TMTAKAPCDDT's format is superior for straight up 3v3 duels.

By bro'ing up, we reduce the individual's weight with regard to the duel/match's outcome. Duels become a dynamic team effort, outcomes are no longer set in stone. Dueling becomes fun again.
Fair-er matches, yet still room for god-tier/no-lifer heroics. Everyone wins!

etc.etc. also my picture from the original thread disappeared what the hell

Spoiler: bloop

Oh, and so converting that ruleset to 3v3s would make it exactly team fencing format, which you can look up/at if you want.

"Wily would have been a better choice than cal" pls no give him ideas pls

 

[Juve]

Wily tends to beat me more often than Cal, or at least his no-nonsense style tends to throw me off more.

 

[WilySly]

Wily was busy watching 2 Guns and eating a carne asada burrito.

 

[Catholic]

Guys, it's a 4-team double elimination tournament. Scheduling should really not be hard.
