@menos_kegare: this not actual chess

just tourney where team based on chess layout

@menos_kegare: So every class of pawns that have multiple pawns consist of the same fictional character right? So if i choose Batman as a Knight every pawn will be Batman right?

@menos_kegare: rooks can not exceed herald

Basically the knights and pawns are useless. Also may want to set some limits on abilities or things will be ugly.

@seagod: depends on gear. the aim is to eliminate the king asap.

if powerhouses match up nicely then the fodder can sneak in towards the king

limits are in rules of fight

@mojo-verse: no I mean as soon as two queens clash or two rooks clash thr knights and pawns will be killed via collateral damage and the bishops either dead o badly injured.

I swear fizzwhizz did something like this a few years back.

@spinach: he tried to but it never got off the ground.

@seagod: depends on environment n distance n gear

@seagod:

Ok yeah i vaguely remember signing up, thought i was going crazy for a bit there. Thanks.

@mojo-verse: what gear could a street level or fodder character possibly have that can stand up to a herald tier?

@seagod: that's why queens n rooks = stronger pieces than pawns

how many female herald tiers are there?

herald tier reduced to high tier

u will have 2 batmans

@mojo-verse: Question.

So for the king do we pick either any power or gear and one of those gear options or is it any power or one of those gear options?

@seagod: only 1 power or 1 gear from the list

just convince voters ur king survives longer than other king

@mojo-verse: well that's pretty lame tbh. those are barely any options and are all pretty lame and useless. With those options the fodder can kill you pretty easily.

@seagod: eliminate other king first n the match is over like in real chess

king is not suppose to be immortal

@mojo-verse: dude even if the king isn't supposed to be Immortal the options are pretty weak. Like all it takes is the Queen a second to kill the King as soon as the fight starts

This is going to end horribly if it lifts off the ground, and the fact that you cannot see that is astounding.

@deathhero61: trying to warn him

@seagod: u have a queen too

@mojo-verse: and? There are ways to distract a queen long enough to km the king

@seagod: The main problem i have is that the queen will wipe out the other pawns on both sides quite easily making the only debate the battle between the queens.

that's why u prove to voters ur king outlast the other king

in real chess, that can happen

@mojo-verse: Look gonna be honest I've talked ti several members of the site on discord and stuff and honestly you probably won't get any participants in the tournament.

@shade545: Honestly that's true. Or if any character has a cloning or summoning ability it's a instant win. Plus basically all the options for kings won't do any good except maybe intangibility.

@mojo-verse: The planet can get blown up in an instant. Bye bye other pawns.

@shade545: honestly I think the tiers are too far apart tbh. They should all be around the same tier but slightly better stats here and there.

@mojo-verse: you might want to redo this before it's too late

@shade545: battlefield is indestructible n rules limit certain attacks i.e. no AOE

@seagod: where does jean grey or wonder woman rank on the tier scale? could a bullet kill them if they not ready?

@mojo-verse: Jean Gray maybe and for Wonder Woman it depends since some incarnations are bullet proof while others aren't

@mojo-verse: can you explain what was updated?

Explain the roles and limits , I not sure what you mean in the rules

@mojo-verse: I may join just to show how easily the tournament can be broken.

@smxlr8:

some stats have been nerfed

battlefield has been added

more items/powers can be picked for king

new time limits for start of battle i.e. 5 mins only knights n pawns can mobilize

pawns can become queens

@seagod: new updates added

items n powers now separated

pawns can become queens under some conditions

@mojo-verse: what do you mean by high tier ?

@smxlr8: I'm just gonna use ET's HTT limits to pick

@seagod: you are going to enter this ? why?

hue hue hue ... I'd like to see people fare against queens like Spectrum with fodders XD

@smxlr8: haven't decided yet. Depends if i can find a good team. And idk boredom maybe

@ssj_god: I mean honestly you just gotta kill the king so just have the queen distract the queen and have a bishop,knight, or pawn with a cloning ability and it's a pretty easy win

@seagod:

or .. just have a mid tier level teleporter and have the queen teleported beside the opposite king. if it's even a decently fast queen, it's game over then and there.

@ssj_god: yeah tbh the rules are easily breakable.

Instead of those lame options for the king give the king a free choice or a noncombat power or gear.

@ssj_god: @seagod: this wont turn out good

Its a cool concept, but I think it could be fleshed out more.

cloning n teleportation have been disabled except for knights n pawns
