Rage: Tournament

An intra-clan contest.

To hone combat skills within the clan and for a bit of fun, an intra-clan contest has been organized.

Three take part: two contenders and a referee (the referee need not be of the Battleragers)

The fights take place in the Arena (up from the Temple of Leo). Fights go until the command Stop (from the fighters or the referee) or until one of the fighters flees to the Safe Room and he or the referee concedes defeat/victory. A bout runs in three rounds. Either two wins in a row, or win-loss-win. The outcome is the awarding of the winner's rank.

Tournament ranks are unofficial: the referee awards them and the fighter writes the rank into their title or description. They have nothing to do with the clan rank, which grows on its own from treasury donations and time in the clan. The starting tournament rank is Warrior ([W]). Then come the ranks: Blade ([B]), Singing Blade ([SB]), Master of the Blade ([MB]), Lord of Steel ([LS]).

The principle of gaining a new rank in the tournament: Two clan members in the same PK range and holding the rank of Warrior fight each other under the rules above. When one of them wins, he gains the rank of Blade. To rise from Blade to the rank of Singing Blade, he must defeat four times (without a loss) a clan member of the Warrior rank, or two of the Blade rank. To gain the next rank, Master of the Blade, he must defeat three clansmen of the Singing Blade rank. A fighter can become a Lord of Steel only by defeating in one bout two opponents of the Master of the Blade class at once.

*-------------------------------------------------------------* A tournament rank, for example [W], may be placed in your title or in your description. It is prestigious and handsome. Conduct yourself nobly and with respect. May Rage be with you!
