Event details
Barony of An Dubhaigeainn Rapier Championship Tournament – Let’s Make a Deal Most Fowl!
I, Demetrio Antelini da Lucca, An Dubhaigeainn’s current Champion of Defence, send greetings and invite you all to attend Potted Arms on June 17th. I will be hosting a tournament on behalf of their Excellencies, who will observe the combatants and select from the populace their next Champion. The tournament will be themed around the title, “Let’s Make a Deal Most Fowl.”
The tournament will begin with a Round Robin with a twist. This stage will score in 2 ways. The first will be the standard scoring for a Round Robin format. However, at the conclusion of each bout, the combatants will get to choose from a selection of blind prizes, with the winner of each bout selecting first. This gives the winners the best chance at that particular bout's most lucrative prize offering.
At the conclusion of the Round Robin, scores will be tabulated and the results will seed a 2nd tournament. This second tournament will follow a standard double-elimination bracket format. The exact structure will be determined once we know how many fencers are entering the tournament. The finals will be a best of 5 with matched weapon forms. The combatant with the better standing up until the finals will select the first weapon form, and the lower will select second, continuing to alternate choice until a winner is determined. A combatant may not select the same form twice, but a form may be chosen that has already been selected by their opponent.
