Thats part of the 2v2 strategy. One can be the one that takes out the cold and other the other element. Anyone that complains about gear shouldnt be in the tourney anyway imho. all you need is tgods/DH boots or WW/vex, ohm/raven or just stacked res and pair any one of those items to counter a cold/fb or lite team.

5x 20/11 vs cold + other element
40 from torch/anni
Tgods
30-41 cr ring
DH
trangs
7/15 or 7/29cr in vmagi
hoto/7/30 wizzy or 7/30 chuta w/e you prefer
2/20/2 magic or maybe one with res w/ 2c 30 cr jewels
2/10-20/40cr ammy
E spirit

youre at 380 CR with lowest cr stats i listed, with open belt/boots and one ring.
Youre at 450+ if you got wizzy route and on the higher end of the cr i listed.


So it's just a cold stack setup+fire/light stack item while still hitting 420/450. Meanwhile, the cold sorc's partner can maintain maximum HP because they don't have to use any cold stack gear.
Sure it's balanced in a sense, but it's a competitive advantage based purely on the matchup - which adds a dynamic to the tourney that I am not a fan of. If other people feel strongly about it please let me know, we have two weeks before signups close to potentially change the rule.

I don't mind any way you slice it. Be like Goku and relish the opportunity to fight someone at their best even if potentially they are better than you. Just makes the chance of victory that much more satisfying when accomplished.

ya this tourney is def a chance for the less popular non-200fcr builds to have a chance to shine. i think all sorcs should always be allowed to have a shot.

I get that, but youre basically making a fire 2v2 tourney, Maybe if someone feels like going light to try and 1-2 hit KO someone. A good FB sorc thats 450cr can 1v2 to blizz sorcs. Personally I think you should leave it open to anything. If the other tea chooses to go 2x Fb then its on them.

If Icey wants to run a tournament with his rules and his own FG, let him run it.

You are welcome to run your own tournament with your FG and the rules that you think make the most sense.

If you think you can compete with the rules he has laid out, sign up. If not, don't sign up. Move along.

one potential workaround is that the cold sorc's teammate also has to use a cold stack setup regardless of the m/u. that would at least even out the playing field.

you are saying that a fb sorc inherently has an advantage over a cold sorc, which I am not saying is valid or invalid, but the goal of this tourney is not to rectify that.

2020 and people finding outdated rule sets + arguing about rules

🤦‍♂️

The original and current rules from the OG svs ladder don’t cap es at 79% or whatever so you obviously didn’t pull this rule set from there, as I said earlier.

I don’t care as I’m not playing anyways I just find amusement in people trying to change/modify rule sets to a 20 year old game
