@Veara Titan 
Cito Spiralis should also be added to the banned spells list since it makes it impossible for a person to cast while under its effect.

  

I also feel that the wand to a chicken spell should be banned unless it has already been banned idk, kthxbai <3


I was thinking about banning this, I just wanted to see if any players would think of banning Cito Spiralis first though. I'll add it to the list.

Also Ninja something, Congregate Anates is a bugged spell as of now, so it shouldn't be casted anyways. Casting it during the tournament will obviously get you in trouble for casting a bugged spell.

a) If you're lucky enough that someone in your Group is online, AND they're willing to duel with you, then yes, they can substitute for Bob.

b) Umbreo will not be banned because the whole point of that spell is to have Blindness you can't take away, but not so long that it's very very annoying.

What are you talking about. The battles will be 1 team against another team, which is, in total, 4 people dueling at once. I fully agree with Ollie's logic that if one person is stuck, the other will defend.

I don't really see how the 'other' will defend? I thought it was clear that Protego with an Orbis was a bad combination in general. That also means if a person has been cast on with Orbis, and a teammate tries to defend with a Protego over the affected person, then the Protego will still deplete itself. With that said, once the Protego has been depleted, that teammate will then be left vulnerable to be also cast on with another Orbis, unless you allow Protego spamming.

The thing I don't want to do with this tournament is ban a bunch of spells. Last tournament, a bunch of spells were banned, and dueling was a bit constricted. This time, I'm allowing more spells because I feel it will create more interesting duels. 

 

In response to Seph, the kind of defending I had in mind was not casting a Protego over the Orbised player, it was more so attacking the other player, possibly even by Orbising one of them back. Also keep in mind, a good amount of time, the person that is Orbised can still cast, and they will probably be Episkying themselves. I'm not saying that the Orbis won't affect the team mate it's casted on, because people cast it for a reason, I'm saying that it can be defended against. This is also disregarding the fact that the player that gets Orbised might get "bugged" and will not be able to cast. That is a problem, but if you really want Orbis banned, then ask others to like your reply. If I see enough likes, I'll add this spell to the Banned Spells list.

 

Also Bella, I'm not going to go around and tell you how to defend yourself against Umbreo, so you'll just have to figure out a strategy to fight against it. Maybe keep up Protego when you're not doing anything in the duel.

You're referring to 1v1 duels, which SOME of this is true. This is a 2v2 duel, and strategies are different! I recommend coming up with some strategies in your 2v2 duel.

 

But I am leaning towards banning Umbreo, because this spell should be countered with Nullum Obscuro.

@Veara Titan, let me explain to you, as the creator of the spell, what it's meant to be. It is meant to be unstoppable blindness, but that being said, it is meant to be much shorter and I intend to cap it to be much lower soon. If you make it counterable, it loses what makes it different than Obscuro. As for your logic, I don't understand it either. Unbanning spells doesn't make varieties, it just means they'll use that spell. There is a set meta, Bella is right, and banning the spells in it would encourage variety, not keeping them allowed since most duelists gravitate to a handful of spells.


If you were to unban Alarte, you can bet every duelist in Tiers 7+ who had it would use it. But by banning it, you force them to use other damaging spells. By banning Umbreo, you are forcing them to find other ways to cripple their opponents, if you allow it, why would they use Umbreo which is two minutes of unstoppable blindness, over Obscuro which someone with Nullum Obscurus can get rid of in ten seconds?

Don't forget that Umbreo's "secondary effect" is AoE-type blindness, as in it can blind more than one person at a time. But I will probably be banning this spell, so people stop fussing over it :P

Stop fussing over it? That's a pretty interesting way to say we got you here. :P Anyway, that's not enough to make it viable if Nullum Obscurus was to begin affecting it, since one Nullum would nullify it.

So far, we have only 5 teams signed up! If we don't get enough teams, the tournament won't be as fun, and there will be only Group 3 teams battling.

 

There's also only one Group 1 team :3

 

Start signing up guys! :D
