    So i wanted to make a tour testing our knowledge of the tiers and also putting u at an edge with a harder teambuilding process such i present to you the pokemon e-sport league (PEL) the rules are the following
    1 standard ou (with all of thoose clauses)
    2 a draft pick mode for all pokemons (except ubers)
    3 Single elimination
    4 3 teams build per round
    5 conquest format

    For thoose not used to conquest its basically bo5 where u instead of having to win 3 Times with one team have to win once with all our 3 teams making teambuilder more important than ever.

    For the draft pick its that u pick 24 pokemons you start with 40 points/currency
    Ou pokemons cost 3 points
    Uu pokemon costs 2 points
    Ru pokemon cost 1.5 points
    Nu pokemon cost 1 points
    Lc pokemon cost 0.5 points
    The pokemon u choose will be ours to build 3 teams with each round

    To make it have a more competetive feel and for who wins/loses proof i request one of you to record the battle for it to be posted on an setup youtube channel by me will try to maybe commentate but if anyone is willing to commentate just ask me

    To participate post in with 24 pokes if our pokemon goes over the 40 point benchmark u are disqualifed

    Gl everyone and Let the pickings begin may the best win it all

    umm.
    Very hastily (read: poorly and unintelligibly) presented for something so very ambitious (at least as far as I can gather)
    Reject.

    Okay, after reading it a couple times I think I get what you're trying to propose.

    One question though, how does the "draft" work? I mean, I know the concept of it generally well but I don't see how it's going to work. Are you going to have everyone participating post in the thread in order of what Pokémon they want? If that's the case, this will definitely not work because you have people not caring about these tours after signing up and then throwing in forced posting for the draft is just too much for this to run efficiently.

    Did not think that long then i might have that in the signup thread u post 24 pokes when u sign up and everyone could pick the same pokes then for your knowing i kinda had in mind a po channel where we draft or mayb a Skype/teamspeak call but realized thats not gonna run smooth

    Getting people to "buy" 24 Pokémon as part of their signups might work. If your plan was to make it so 2 people couldn't draft the same Pokémon then that's not going to work in any way.

    The biggest problem I have with this is what you refer to as "Bo5 conquest" format. Well ok you have to win with each team. But what if you don't. Do you just replay until you do? What if your opponent has a team that is an almost hard counter to yours and just keeps pulling it out because you can't win against it with your last team, making "teambuilder more important than ever" isn't a good thing, it's called increasing the matchup factor and making games more about rolling a dice than playing. This odd format of battles just doesn't make any sense. On top of that best of 5 for a whole tour even in the traditional sense is just far too much caring to expect people to do.

    Rejecting again 1/2

    I am gonna explain the conquest format then when u win with 1 team u cant use that anymore yes u can say that its matchupp dependent but the draft is as much a part of the game as the battling here
    And if the problem is bo5 then i make it bo3 in Every round except finals wich is bo5

    That's still a heavy amount to do.

    In hosting previous tours, it's hard enough to get users to do a single match in 10 days, much less a bo3 or even bo5.

    Just keep that in mind.

    As the teambuilding takes a long time i was actually planning on having maybe around 16 days rounds

    That's what I have the biggest problem with.

    The Best of 5 situation along with a convoluted "conquest" format doesn't help this tour either. 16-day rounds also means that this tour would go on for an eternity.

    Sorry but, I'm also rejecting 2/2
