Final MW Release OCTGN Tournament!
Tournament Structure and Outline

This tournament will be played in 2 stages. The first being a round robin in smaller groups. The top 2 of each group will advance to the single elimination stage. There will be a semi finals match, and the winners of those will advance to the finals for taking first place. There will also be a third place match for the losers of the semi finals. The goal of this tournament is to do a run-through of any balancing needed for new cards.
To begin, Arcane Duels is accepting entrants. Or you can sign up on Challonge at https://challonge.com/tournaments/signup/pT6bLugU6p.
In order to enter, you must commit to playing one mage wars game per week. Failure to do so will result in disqualification
If you would like to enter the tournament, email arcaneduels@gmail.com with your name on OCTGN. The target start date is March 28th

Prizes
The player that takes the championship will receive a free copy of the new set! Even if you are international

The weekly schedule will be as follows:

On Challonge your matchups are announced. Feel free to play any matches that you have currently assigned too.

Competitors have from the matchup announcement on Sunday until 2359 Central US time Saturday to get their matches played and the results emailed to arcaneduels@gmail.com.
Rules
- If one party has been unresponsive in scheduling a match, they will forfeit the match and tournament
- If attempts have been made by both parties to schedule a match and it just doesn't line up by the end of the week, let Arcane Duels know and we will try to help on a case by case basis (typically by having the match scheduled for the following week with those competitors being required to play 2 matches during the next week). In some cases both players will be disqualified.
- If neither player has attempted to schedule, both will be given a loss
- If required, a judge makes the final call on a rule. Any argumentative discussion that takes an excessive amount of time will receive a warning. If it continues that player will be disqualified.
- If a player gets disconnected and dropped during a tournament match it will be considered a loss for that player
- All cards released on OCTGN are legal to use. All promotional cards available on OCTGN are also legal. If there are playtesting cards that update currently existing cards, you must use the newest version. For example you must use the Wizard that has Arcane Zap for 2 mana instead of the older version.
  We also may balance cards mid tournament. This means the newest card must be used!
- Players will build a spellbook with the standard amount of spellbook points and restrictions. They may change mages or books between games if they wish.
- Any promotional cards that have been officially released in a set will be considered to read as the official released in a set version
Restrictions And/Or Clarifications
- All playtesting rules under the Codex and Clarifications section of the Rulebook document in the link below will be used.

Other info
If you wish to be a caster please contact me at Arcaneduels@gmail.com. Even if you cannot stream you could always join me or anyone else casting the game. Players are allowed to cast for games that they are not competing in.
Judge positions will be less easy to apply for. If you wish to be a judge then you will not be allowed to participate as a contestant in the tournament.
Matches must allow official commentators and judges in as spectators. Non-Official Tournament spectators are not allowed to spectate a game unless both players agree to it. Some games will be streamed live, and may be posted on youtube for all Mage Wars fans to view.

Logistics
ALL coordination is suggested to be done through email. We also have been accepting Discord messages as well. Make sure to include Arcane Duels in your message so we can easily track match up coordination (everyone should CC arcaneduels@gmail.com or Coshade when figuring out when you can play your match). This helps us see if someone has been unresponsive and can take appropriate action

I've always loved Emerald Tegu. It can throw a wrench into a lot of games and is pretty solid for survivability.

Love the list Farkas!

Hey there!
This was updated back in May to specify. The original text was taken from Academy, so when you convert it to Arena you gains steps to an attack. You can reference these on the dropbox, but for a quick answer if you are on the forums here is the description for each (may change as this is still playtesting).

Air: During the Declare Attack Phase pay 3 mana for a +4 to the effect roll.
Fire: During the Declare Attack Step you may pay 3 mana to gain Melee +2 and Ranged +2 traits for that attack.
Earth - During the Upkeep Phase you may pay 2 mana to gain the Armor +2 trait until the end of the round.
Water: During the Upkeep Phase you may pay 2 mana to heal 2 damage.

We have made the tournament live! No one sent me their emails, but I know there has already been players in contact about the first match.

Good luck to everyone!

I imagine the community for 1.0 will always be around to play some games. Making house rules (and cards) has always been a thing and I don't imagine it will stop either.

General Discussion / Create a Card - Final Vote!

« on: July 15, 2020, 05:37:22 PM »

Hello everyone!

We are on our final vote for two new creature cards! There have been a ton of ideas thrown around so I thought I would gather them up. We'll be leaving the polls open for 2 weeks, then go straight to playtesting. We are looking for names and quotes so feel free to share them here or email us at Arcaneduels@gmail.com. Here are some thoughts on the two creatures below.

Holy Or Dark Level 5 Creature! The idea behind this card is that it joined the side of demons. Both the Dark and Holy side can take this creature since it has been on both sides.

Card 1 - Pretty basic concept here. Gate to Hell is a very unused card so hopefully this one makes it more viable. I would vote for this if you plan on taking Gate to Hell. I'm unsure if Holy has many uses for it though.

Card 2 - This helps both the Priest and the Adramelech Warlock a lot. Not removing burns can be very powerful with cards like Magma Golem. It might also make Combustion more of an option.

Card 3 - A solid card, Adramelech Warlock probably benefits the most because setting things on fire and demon creatures combo very well with this.

Card 4 - This gives more of a stronger solo creature card. It works well with both sides in it's own way.

War Level 4 - There have been a few ideas!
Card 1 is designed to be a tough of nails, slow advance creature. it's not supposed to be easy but also does not have a lot of damage in one action, but can produce a lot in a melee attacking round.

Card 2 is a great Warlord card. We are a bit worried that formations may make this card too strong as is, but it uses his giant shield concept to help advance troops.

Card 3 is similar ideas to card 1. It's less straight forward, but great for attacking into guards. It does not have the Vigilante trait so that may cause problems. If you do succeed in the defense (or use defensive enchantments) you still gain the guard marker. It also goes well with cards like Temple of Dawnbreaker.

Card 4 is more of a leadership card. It is designed to be heroric in that it can help friendly soldiers retreat or advance without worry of enemies around it.

Keep in mind if any of these cards appear overpowered, we will be balancing them down stats wise during playtesting. When you cast your vote, the overall concept/Traits will be preserved, but if you see high stats and decide the power card is just better, it will probably be nerfed to be balanced out.

Card 1 Option 1 ---> https://ibb.co/9ypbqrd

Card 1 Option 2 ---> https://ibb.co/JvMYwjk

Card 1 Option 3 ---> https://ibb.co/85RTfnv
