Hard Choice
There aren't many Tournaments on the map, and this one has been long overdue.
Rules:
1. Each participant plays with only one Castle throughout the Tournament (specified during registration).
2. The Tournament will be held on version HotA 1.5.3 + latest HD mod version; tournament rules are enabled in all templates.
3. Standard HotA rules apply. Chess clock timer is used.
4. Players bargain for color choice rights. If identical Castles are chosen, they additionally bargain for hero selection, except for mirror match templates.
5. Template selection is done by banning. A coin flip determines who bans first; the player who guesses correctly chooses who bans first.
In BO3 series, there are special template selection rules. In the first game, standard banning applies. In the second game, the played template is removed from the list of available templates, and the loser of the first game starts the ban (i.e., bans one more template). If the score is 1:1, two previously played templates are not available in the third game.
6. Players may mutually agree to make any changes to the rules, except for changing the starting Castle.
7. For each completed match, participants must submit a report and confirmation in this thread, created automatically.
Saves from all matches must be saved until the end of the Tournament and provided upon request by the Tournament organizer or any member of the AC (Administration Committee).
8. If, after the time on the timer expires, a player is in battle for more than 10 minutes, their opponent has the right to demand that they finish it (quick battle Q or retreat).
9. The preferred time for games is daytime (12-24 Moscow time) on weekends and evening (19-24 Moscow time) on weekdays. If a participant cannot play at this time, the absence of a game result will be interpreted by the tournament organizer as a win for their opponent.
If an agreement on the game time could not be reached within the first week, you need to write to the organizer to schedule an ODD (One Day Delay). If no suitable time can be found, an ODD will be scheduled for Saturday at 6:00 PM Moscow time.
Templates:
6lm10a, Spider, Kerberos_1x1, Nostalgia, Jebus Cross, Diamond (roads), Mini-Nostalgia.
For identical pairs, the following are added to the list: h3dm1, mt_Jebus.
On the mt_Jebus template, blue player chooses the starting hero first (bargaining only for color). Rematches are allowed once.
On h3dm1, red player can ban from 0 to 3 starting heroes; then, blue player selects from the remaining heroes first (bargaining only for color). If any of the banned heroes appear on turn 111 in a tavern with troops, it is considered a technical rematch. Rematches are allowed once.
On Kerberos_1x1, the timer applies as with other HLs (High Level maps). The default version of the template has been changed for 1v1 games: the center 20k passage points have been reduced to 12k.
Installation instructions: copy the "Kerberos_1x1" folder (extract the archive) from the attachment into the HotA_RMGTemplates folder (only rmg.txt should be inside).
On Nostalgia, computer selection works as on Mini-Nostalgia.
The attached Diamond includes mandatory roads with respawn points. Currently, this version is not installed by default; you will need to add it yourself.
Installation instructions: copy the "Diamond (roads)" folder (extract the archive) from the attachment into the HotA_RMGTemplates folder (only rmg.txt should be inside).
You can study the templates in more detail using the "RMG Template Editor," which is located in the game's folder. You need to run it and open the text files of the templates you are interested in through it, which are located in the HotA_RMGTemplates folder.
Regulations:
All participants are divided into 3 groups of 16 people each.
The Tournament consists of two stages.
1) Preliminary round - BO1 match between players from group 2 and 3. The winner plays a BO1 match against a player from group 1.
2) Playoffs - Double Elimination. The winner of the preliminary round enters the upper bracket (16 players). Both losers in the preliminary round enter the lower bracket (32 players). Games in the upper bracket are BO3. In the lower bracket, they are BO1. Grand final is BO3 if the score is 1:0.
Dates:
Registration until August 18th.
