All past winners of events will be invited to play in the event.
The remaining invitations will be given to the highest-ranked players, based on their player ranking at the end of Season 10.
The tournament will have up to 16 players. We will continue inviting players to play until we have 16 players, up to the 25th position on our rankings board. If we do not have 16 spots filled by then we will assign first-round byes to the top seeded players.
Event Format:
Double Elimination Bracket until four players remain. At that point we will go to single elimination for those four players.
This is a "bring 2" format with alternating rounds of Army Draft ("regular" Bring 2) and Pick your Poison rounds.
Opening round will feature highest seed versus lowest seed and so on.
A full bracket will be posted, but some games may be re-paired to avoid rematches.
Maps and points will be announced as we get closer to the event.
For this event, each player will submit two 600 point armies. VC allowed, no Marvel. You may not use the same army card in both armies.Standard 24-space startzone rules apply. Before each game, there will be a dice-off, done by the tournament organizers. The winner of the dice-off chooses first army choice or second army choice(or in Pick your Poison rounds, you may pick the army your opponent will play first.) out of the players' four armies, and the loser of the dice-off chooses to place first or second.
New Rule added, please read Dice off Equalizer - A new rule that will be implemented. A check before each game to see the dice off win % for the tournament for each player will be made. If a player has a lower Dice off win % than his opponent, he will automatically win the dice off. Should the win % be tied, a dice off will be performed.
Glyphs: Holdir (Heroic Attack), Valda (Move +2) and Kelda (Healer). Valda is the central glyph.
TG Trap:
Spoiler Alert!
Your figure is trapped. The trapped figure cannot move from this space. The figure can move only if a friendly figure occupies an adjacent space or if it is your last figure.
League Details:
Spoiler Alert!
Power glyphs will be placed, power side up, on maps before the game begins.
Time Controls - NEW
If, at the end of any turn, both of the following conditions are met:
One player has taken 30 minutes less game time than their opponent according to the app AND
At least 75 minutes of gameplay time has passed since the timestamp of the first set OMs,
Then the player who has taken less time than their opponent may end the game on time. The game will then go to partial card scoring.
Additionally, if one player has taken 60 minutes less game time than their opponent, the player who has taken less time than their opponent may claim a win on time, irrespective of the game situation.
The organizers reserve the right to nullify either of the time controls rules if we find that it is being abused or if we believe the time recorded on the app is incorrect.
Because of the time control rules, it is important to use the app's clocking features correctly.
Always press the "done" button when your turn is complete.
If you decide to move to a position where your opponent has the option of a leaving engagement attack or engagement strike, use the appropriate quick message button to tell them to make that roll.
If you have any out-of-turn movement (scatter, scurry, etc), press "done" when you are done with that movement.
If you decline an out-of-turn action (e.g. you don't want to attempt a leaving engagement attack on Krug, or you don't want to scatter), press "done" to decline the action.
Scheduling
Once a round is announced, you will have one week to complete your game. Please attempt to schedule a time to play your game with your opponent.
If after 72 hours (3 days) you have not been able to reach your opponent via PM, please fill out the missing opponent report to notify the organizers of the situation.
If you cannot come to an agreement with your opponent on a time to schedule the game during that week, then please fill out the scheduling conflict report.
If a game is not completed on time and the tournament organizers are not notified of an issue, both players will be given a loss.
The tournament organizers reserve the right to manually set the pairings involving players with a history of either failing to schedule their games, or not showing up for scheduled game times. Such players will also not be given the benefit of the doubt should scheduling conflicts arise.
Reporting Game Results (and dropping out)
The winner of the game must use the game result form to report results. (This will be linked once the tournament begins.)
If you do not want to continue in the tournament into the next round, please PM an organizer to let them know.
Etiquette for watching games
Only the tournament referees (awesomeunleashed, Bengi, dok, Filthy, Kinseth, Typhon, Xorlof) are authorized to make binding rulings. If no referee is present in a game, ask before offering your opinion.
Refer to this thread for the etiquette rules of the Online Heroscape tournaments.
Disputes
The tournament referees are awesomeunleashed, Bengi, dok, Filthy the Clown, Kinseth, Typhon2222, and Xorlof. These players may make rulings on in-game disputes (line of sight, figures fitting on a space, dice rolled too soon/too late, etc) in games where they are not playing. If there is a dispute and one of these players is online, they may issue an on-the-spot ruling. If you have a dispute you cannot resolve, and none of the referees are present, you may stop the game and PM the tournament referees for a ruling.
NOTE: if a ruling is made late in the week and there is not enough time to schedule completion of the game, the tournament referees may issue a forfeit loss to the player who was ruled against.
PRIZES: The winner this season receives a set of 12 of our very cool custom Heroscape dice.

Re: Online Heroscape - End of Year Championship 2013
My Black Wyrmling trainwreck is going to make qualifying for this tougher than I thought... I figured I was in with my run to the finals a few seasons back.
Re: Online Heroscape - End of Year Championship 2013
Only events that count towards your rankings are Officially run Online Heroscape Events designated with a season, or a side event we have officially endorsed(Team Tournament).
To know if an Event is considered official, you can check out our Champions of Valhalla thread that will list all official winners of events.

Re: Online Heroscape - End of Year Championship 2013
Team Tournament is not a "side event", it just didn't count as a regular season. Just like this end-of-year championship won't either.
Basically, if it's an event that was run by the regular group of (non-Superscape) event organizers, then it counts towards both the rankings and towards qualifying by winning the event. The only other event that counts is the very first online event (I don't remember who organized that one).
Re: Online Heroscape - End of Year Championship 2013
This is more of a question for next year, but I'll ask it now:
Is the online leaderboard going to get reset after this championship? There are some players that have gotten a lot better since they started playing online, but probably do not have a chance at making the top 16 for next year's championship just because when they started playing, they weren't as good of a player, and they picked up some a lot of losses early that make it tough for them to climb the leaderboard.

The main leaderboard that is used for pairing will not be reset; however, it is possible that the leaderboard used for 2014 championship purposes will only use 2014 games (we're still discussing it). Also, of course, everyone who wins a 2014 season will get in regardless of ranking.
