Proudly announcing: Lidakor's Two-Pool 2v2 Showmatch: MbL & Nicov vs. TaToh & DauT
The showmatch will consist of 5 games in total, each securing 20% of the total prizepool (a minimum of $100) for the teams upon victory.
Planned Event date: Apr. 28, 2019, 14 GMT
All five games will be played in a 2v2 setup on ECL_Hideout. The unique thing about the showmatch will be, that teams will be using to pools each, to pick civilizations from. The first pool is drafted by the teams similarly, as in the case of most tournaments. However, the second pool for each team will be drafted by the opponent. Every match, a player from a certain team will have to pick a civ from the team's Pool 1, the other player, from Pool 2. It is up to the players to decide, which player picks from which pool.
Thanks to this approach in civilzation selection, an additional strategic element is added in the form of how players combine their civilizations, as the opponents will most likely try to pick weaker civilizations for them.
In addition, slinging will be disabled until reaching Imperial age, and researching coinage.
Civilitations
Each team has one global ban for the five games.
Each team will use two pools (Pool 1 and Pool 2). Every match, one of the players from a certain team will have to select a civ from Pool 1, the other player from Pool 2. It is up to the players to decide which player picks from which pool, and it can be changed between matches. Pool 1 will be drafted by the teams first, with team in the regular ABBA... order.
After that, Pool 2 will be drafted. For Team A, Pool 2 will be drafted by Team B and vice versa.
