Tiny/Tall Tournament

Fighters will be divided equally into two groups by height, half the contenders will join the “Tiny Tournament” and half the contenders will join the “Tall Tournament”. Each tournament will be fought in a round robin with the top fighters from each pool having a finals match to determine the winners for each tournament. Finals will be a best of 3.
Note: Depending on timing and number of fighters, we may swap to a double elimination instead of a round robin. We may also have multiple pools going at once for each tournament.

Kunst Der Verteidigung (Art of Defense) – Titan’s Tournament

This competition is an art + fighting tournament wherein each entrant either teams up with an artist or makes a piece of art for the competition.

Each rapier fighter shall create a piece of art or team up with an artist as a partnership to form their Fighter/Artist team. The art will then be part of the prizes at the end of the tourney!

Art entries can be simple items such as baked goods or other easy creations, no documentation is required. Ideally items will be handmade.
Note: We will have a few extra art pieces for those that wish to participate in the tournament and weren’t able to complete an art piece. These will be first come first served and will be limited.

Art Prize Competition: Judged by participants of the tourney. Each fighter and Each artist will get one token to vote for the art they would most like to win. (Fighters who create their own art get 2 tokens – one for being an artist and one for being a fighter). Each art entry brought by a Fighter/Artist team will receive points equaling the number of teams plus 1 point for each token (ex: if 18 teams enter and the art received 5 tokens that art will have earned 23 points).

Rapier tournament: This will be a Swiss Round tournament. The winner of the tournament will receive points equaling the number of combatants. Each subsequent person will receive one less point (ex: If there are 18 entrants, first place gets 18 points, second place gets 17, third gets 16, etc).

Prizes: Will be distributed to the Fighter/Artist team with the highest combined point total first. One prize will be picked by the team (up to the team how they wish to handle it between them). We will then go through each team in point ordering.

Additionally, the first placed Fighter will receive a Torch which will serve as the entry fee for the Titan’s Tournament held at War of the Wings in October.
The first placed Artist will receive a prize to be announced at a later date.
