Some interesting months lie behind us. Warcraft 3 got patched, we moved back to Battle.net, Trunks secured his FML title and finally we got our FFA bot running, thanks to SomethingWicked, Ping and Massmoretankz. It took more time and effort than expected, but the collaboration with Ping’s wc3melee.com is a great solution.
Before we get to the actual announcement, we would like to officially welcome Massmoretankz and Vyvanne to the admin team.
After two FML seasons in a row, it’s time for Team Battle Royale. As in the previous events, four or five teams (not decided yet) will fight for the prestigious title. Teams will be drafted by captains after the sign up phase concluded. The special thing about TBR: All matches will be played anonymously and there is no scheduling required. There will be a preset match list, for which players will be seated by their captains depending on their availability.
Schedule
Sign up phase: June 12 - June 30 Draft and orga phase: July 1 - July 7 Event: July 8 - August 12 (we won't start before July 8 due to FIFA World Cup)
Game Modes
While TBR 2 was powered up by captain cards, TBR 3 will have no such cards, but bring joy by game modes themselves.
4-way
4-way Random Hero
4-way Pacifist (no player is allowed to go above 55 Food before he hasn’t hoarded 10k gold initially)
2v2v2v2
8-way Preteam (with two players from each team and pre-teaming allowed)
Points
A team will get rewarded 10 points for each won 4-way (random hero or not random hero) and 15 points for each won 2v2v2v2 and 8-way.
A team will get rewarded 3 points for each player that has played at least three matches.
There are four “race crowns” (one for each race) that teams can win during the season, by having most (non 2v2v2v2)-wins with one of the races (random race will count depending on the race drawn in each match). Each race crown will be awarded with 10 points.
How to sign up?
As a requirement to participate in TBR 3, you need to join the FML Discord Server and play at least three inhouse FFA matches if you are unknown to the community. If you want to participate, please post the following details in this thread:
