Description:
Academy of Artillery #2



Rules:

All matches are 'Best of 5'.

Players can agree on which scheme to play first, the loser gets the next pick, then alternate until someone reaches 3 wins first.

If players can't agree on first pick, play 'Comet Dodging' to decide who gets first pick, then alternate.

Map choice and style is decided by the player who picked the scheme, opponent cannot refuse the pickers map choice.

NO NSFW MAPS

If a draw happens on a mutual pick, both players must agree to a new scheme, they can however agree to the same scheme again.

If a draw happens when a player picked the scheme, that scheme goes back into the available schemes to pick and the other player gets to pick the next scheme from whatever is left to pick from.

TIEBREAKERS

In the event of a tiebreaker between any 2 players, they must play a Bo3 match using any of the 5 schemes.

The 1st pick will go to whoever won in their group stage match.



Live Streams:

It will be mandatory that the Semi-Final and Final matches will be scheduled in advance and streamed at https://www.twitch.tv/WormsArmageddonCWA

AT LEAST 72 HOURS IN ADVANCE FOR THE MATCH TO BE SCHEDULED FOR STREAMING!

All other matches are optional though appreciated if you can organize for them to be streamed.

If possible, I would like to stream every single match live.

There will be deadlines set for each stage, there will be no extensions. By signing up to the Cup you agree to these terms.

Group Stage - 4 weeks
Playoffs Quarter Finals - 2 weeks

These timelines are set in stone, each stage will take that amount of time before advancing.

Which means if one stage is finished early we must wait to proceed to the next stage.

It is each players responsibility to organize their matches before the deadline.

Organizing your matches within the official Cup thread takes priority over all other forms of communiation with your opponent when judging who will proceed due to unfinished matches.

Though players CAN organize their matches outside of TUS if they wish.

We are thinking about adding SD back in, BUT, it'll happen really late in the game and will only ever really be activated when players take "too long" to finish.

This would keep it from getting too boring, and adding a bit of excitement back into the game if it gets too stale.
Yeah, this sounds like a good idea. 👍

Though I've yet to see a boring/bad one yet, but only seen half the forts replays from this cup

Yeah, I think I also didn't personally see a game taking extremely too long (like over 1h mark), but I imagine it could be useful for those situations (like if both players have even worse BnG skills than me lmao)

If a troll wants, he can darkside at the bottom of the map while the other player will have to dig all the fort with bazookas and grenades until kill that worm. That's the problem of "Nothing happens" Sudden Death. So, I think either a long time to happen Sudden Death with decent water rise or a medium time to happen sudden death with slow water rise would be valid for testing.
My favourite water rise number for schemes in general is 13 pixels, because it's between the 5 pixels that is very slow and the medium value that is faster than it should be in my point of view.

7 DAYS LEFT UNTIL THE GROUP STAGE FINISHES - I WILL MESSAGE THOSE WITH GAMES LEFT TO PLAY.

If a troll wants, he can darkside at the bottom of the map while the other player will have to dig all the fort with bazookas and grenades until kill that worm. That's the problem of "Nothing happens" Sudden Death.

If a player hides at the bottom and doesn't move, you can just start shooting the bottom away.

Anyone who does this, clearly doesn't take the game seriously so if it's a Cup/TUS match, you know you won't have to play them ever again.

I've never seen anyone actually do this just to be a troll, the only people I've seen darkside like this are noobs who don't know any better, they usually get better with good advice and help.

Makes more sense to hide closer to the middle anyway with this scheme, though keep them as spread as possible until you have less worms.

Group 3 - Potential Tiebreaker!

As you can see in the image following shortly, sock and StJimmy are currently tied for 2nd.

However, if MeTonaTOR wins against Mega`Adnan, he will take the #2 playoff spot with 2/8(2 matches won, 8 rounds won).
