Cringe Tournament III

Conorach

Hi,

I think this concept is hilarious and very innovative. It'll require some solid strategizing and quick thinking on behalf of the participants and I'm very interested in seeing what kind of tactics develop.

However, I would like to ask for some clarification of the rules.

Comrade player cannot build or own units. Can they own buildings provided they don't build with them?
Comrade player ACU can do any upgrades? Or are upgrades disabled / you can buy them (at what cost?)
Starting points do not get reset between matchs? So if you spend 200 out of your 220 points on the first match, and you win, you have only 120 for the next match? If you lose you have nothing? Or do you always have 220 points to spend regardless of how much you spent the previous game? I could see some interesting metagaming where it would be interesting to spend as little as possible and still win if you bring the leftover to the next game.
If you have the same race as an opponent, do you have access to all units they bought? Since the Comrade can't build, does it not make sense they should be the same team, but different from opponent?
Are Comrade ACU allowed to reclaim if they're not allowed to build? how about repair or assist?

@Conorach
1 Cannot build nor have units.
2 Upgrades are allowed
3 You get 100 points after the win and 80 after the loss.
4 You Factions can not be repeated by 2nd team.
5 Reclaim, repair and assist are allowed.

Lunyshko

@pyzu well agressives moves with comrade acu were intended. But suicided motives will bring harm to both teams but mostly to the suicidal team.

So this means everyone plays different faction? Who chooses factions first?

Lunyshko

@pyzu Higher Seed gets to pick first!

This is delightful, and I'm surprised more people are not joining (my connection at this rental is terrible or I totally would).

Might buy still don't have an answer to my question above

Lunyshko

@veteranashe you have to buy each unit individually. You pay for the ability to produce unit that you bought.

veteranashe

Ok so you buy a t1 tank for 22, so you can build tanks, why are higher techs cheaper?

Lunyshko

@veteranashe The higher tech the less likely you will even get to that phase of the game. And another point is that skipping stage is econonicly advantageous.

Pyzu

if you buy T1 radar can you only build T1 and not T2 or T3?
What if you buy T1 and T3 radar but not T2?
Does buying SACU unlock all presets?

@pyzu If you buy T1 radar tou can only build t1 radar.
If you buy T1 and T3 radar then you can only build t1 and t3 radar, no t2 radars for you.
Buying SACU unlocks all presets.

Pyzu

Can you win by building the wall pattern after killing the Captain acu but leaving Comrade alive?
Also

If you buy T1 and T3 radar then you can only build t1 and t3 radar, no t2 radars for you.

Do cybran shields work the same? You have to purchase all 5 shield tiers for 25 points to have access to all of them?

Lunyshko

@pyzu 1. Yes.
2. Yes. But i do not imagine a case where you need all 5 of them. I do not imagine a need of 2 different tech level shield for cybran. First cyb shield is simply very good.

Pyzu

Will players know what map they are going to play before buying units? (So you know if you need navy/land units at all?)

Lunyshko

@pyzu Yes. All maps will be reavled 1 day before the tourney.
