  2. Plateau ~ RuneScape Pure League

    Plateau - Runescape Pure League

    First things first, congratulations to Element (Finn, Doyph, Giga, Wessel, Jake, Runs, Andreas) on winning our first tournament - their video can be found here.

    Spoiler

     



    With our first formal tournament being a huge success, being one of the most entertaining tournaments to both watch and play in quite some time, we wanted to again push the bar and do different again to try and bring the community together.
    Instead of the normal tournaments where some matches would be predetermined, we wanted to put together an event where it really felt like anyone interested in playing could have an impact on their team and have most things be evenly matched as they can be.
    Everything down to the premade team identities is done to encourage putting aside all things outside of the league and playing for something independent of any other activities. Fun and competition are the focus.

    8 captains draft their team (6 each for rosters of 7) from a pool of players that register from all over the community in a streamed draft, then navigate a 2-3 week regular season where every team plays each other once (best of 5 rounds).
    "Regular season" matters, with the top 2 seeds moving onto the playoffs with a first round bye, while the bottom 2 seeds won't even make it into the playoffs.
    Playoffs are single elimination, best of 5 rounds.
    At least half of the regular season matches will be streamed on our twitch, with the entirety of the playoffs being streamed.
    Teams will fight for a current prize pool of 400m, but we're actively looking for ways to get it to 1b+ by the finals to match everyone's effort. (Sponsorship opportunities for server and stream media are available, please contact me if you're interested)

    We thank Sharkbrew for allowing us to cross-promote to raise awareness and hopefully encourage more people to register.
    Our hopes is that this is a fun way for not only existing players to have a bit of consistent action to start off the summer, but for players that don't get as much time in environments where they are encouraged to improve to do so as well.

    - also, paying homage to the IR team who originally did RPL with some of the original team identities etc, shoutout to them for the original ideas -

    Draft / League Play / Playoffs Format

    Draft Format
    Draft lottery (picking order) will be streamed on twitch for all to see and for everything to remain clear and
    consistent. We want to be transparent throughout the whole process.
    From then on the next day, captains will start selecting players from the available pool. The whole process will be streamed.

    League Play Format
    Every team plays each other once in a best of 5 rounds match, doesn't have to be on the same day.
    Fights will need to be submitted with proof that both teams are fighting for their match and not a scrimmage.
    At the end of the 2-3 week period, every team should have completed 8 matches.
    Top 1/2 seeds advance with a bye to the playoffs, bottom seeds 7/8 do not make the playoffs.

    Playoff format
    Best of 5, single elimination
    1/2 Seeded teams Bye into semifinals
    3/6 and 4/5 fight in first round to meet the bye teams

    It is subjective indeed, but you guys have no competition at this point and barely get to play minis with that team anymore. If it was on a game with a larger player base your ‘talents’ might be at better use

    thanks for your input, but i think the focus for most of us is just having fun with our friends on an old past time. half of us do not play any other games

    I would rather you all stop playing and move on with your lives because we tried this in 2017 and it didn't work, in fact it was actually worse in many ways than the HPC bracket 

    Most of you don't want to actually pure clan at all but rather have an outlet for your misguided anger and need to lash out at something on the internet

    well it's quite funny how people take things out of the game, like i said don't even understand why people worry about my fucking kid lmfaoo and than ur going to tell me that i can't brag about what I do and yeah that's the bare minimum but still are these keyboard warriors in my irl life on daily basis or are they even? no so why keep taking things out of the game? it's hella cringe and shouldn't even be acceptable, bet most kids on this game are losers irl crackheads and don't have anything going on irl no offense to them they do what they do and i do what I do.

    people worry about your kid because you brought it up, no? don't disclose information you don't want people online to take jabs at you for. pretty common sense. hoping for nothing but health and wealth for you
