Doomtown Savage Lands Series League


For this Series, we’re doing things a little different pardners. Rather than having your players vote on the upcoming story, we’re letting their decks themselves influence the fiction! Each player will have the opportunity to submit their decklist to dtdb.co and the Pine Box team, complete with any narrative they wish to include involving the deck, matchups, or anything else that happened during the round-up. These entries will be used for upcoming fictions on the Gomorra Dispatch, growing the tales of the Weird West beyond Gomorra.

---------------------------------------------------------------
The rules:

*All games can be played on either OCTGN or Tabletop Simulator, but if the players cannot agree (say for a top 4 match) then by default it must be OCTGN.

1. Players are NOT locked into one faction for the league.  Play any faction you like, switching between games as often as you like.  (Top 4/8 will still be locked into one single deck for all games, however)

All official Doomtown: Reloaded sets up through Hell's Comin' With Me are legal (see the link below for the current banned and errata list for tournaments)

2. Time limit is 55 minutes by default, unless both players explicitly agree otherwise before the game starts.  A 10 minute warning is required, and when time is called the game immediately moves to sundown (same as the current DtR floor rules).

3. Maximum 20% of games can be played against one player at trigger points which are: 10 games and then every 5 next games.  You can only play one person 2 times during your first 10 games, then once every 5 additional games.

Example:  I play Swider twice in a row, then cannot play him again until we both have 10 games under our belts.  At that point, we can play once more, and once we both have 15 games reported we can then play again. 

4. Current DtR tournament rules apply to determine winner.  Of particular note is that we have a new rulebook and errata, and as always the league uses the latest tournament-official rules.

Rulebook:

Normal win condition rules apply up until the time limit is reached.  Then, if the time limit is reached and there is no clear winner, immediately go to sundown and each player adds up the total of their control + influence.  Highest total wins, and if that is also tied then the highest CP total wins.  See the official rules for further tie breakers after that.

5. Minimum of 5 total games is required to move onto the semi finals.

Top 4 players qualify to semi finals (unless we have 20+ players, in which case we will cut to top 8)

6.  Have fun and be respectful!  This league, while competitive, is just as much about community and the exciting continuation of the game we love!

Additional information

1. Please make screenshots at the end of the games - this helps in case there is a dispute and someone remembers wrong.

2. Make sure you explicitly state this is a league game in chat before the game starts.  Also some people use different nicknames on challengeboards and OCTGN - be sure you know what your opponents challengeboard username is.

3.  For discussion, arranging games, or announcing availability you can either post to the discordapp.com chat:  https://discord.gg/S6xFzS2

Minimum of 2 games required to receive promos, and the top 4/8 will have additional promos.
