Anyone can join any tournament (how else are you supposed to get experience) as long as you have legal equipment from Hasbro or takara tomy and you know the rules you're all good
These are a few of the the rules I'll be updating / changing for all upcoming Blader's Kingdom events, please feel free to comment your thoughts on these rules below.
Scoring (double elimination section only):
- Burst = 2pts
- K.O. = 2pts
- Spin Finish = 1pt
- Self K.O. = 1 pts (for opponent)
The top section duels will only use the DB, DX, & Standard Type stadiums; these stadiums will be rotated out for each round. The stadium order will be chosen by dice roll to determine the first stadium, a coin flip to choose between the remaining two, and the last one is set as is. The first four matches of the winners (round 1) will be in the first stadium, the next two matches in winners (round 2) and the first two matches of losers (losers round 1) will be in the second stadium, and the semi finals of winners and the losers round 2 will be in the third stadium. From there, you'll reselect the stadiums and losers round 3 starts with the first stadium, losers round 4 uses the second stadium, and the finals starts with the final stadium. If the finals goes beyond the one match you will reselect once again to determine the final stadium.
For all three stadiums, pocket bounce hits are not considered K.O.'s. For a blade to be considered "knocked out" it must have touched something outside of the stadium, ex: the floor underneath the stadium.
Judging (double elimination only):
- Each top section duel will be judged by a non-participating blader, if one is not available the a participating blader may judge until a there is a non-participant available.
- Judges will use their cellphones to record battles and use that footage to determine a victor if one is not clear.
- If the judge is unclear of the outcome of a battle they will call it a draw and move on; there will be no second opinion from another judge.
- Both bladers will have ONE contesting "card" they can utilize throughout their duel. This contesting card can be used to contest the call of the judge and get a second opinion. The judge will call over another available judge and that judge will make their decision without knowing which blade belongs to which blader AND without an commentary from the bladers or judge.
- If a blader uses their contesting "card" and the initial judge's call is correct, that blader loses their contesting "card" and my not use it again. If a blader uses their contesting "card" and the initial judge's call is incorrect they keep their contesting "card" for another use.
- If a blader has used and lost their contesting "card" but would like to contest a later call by the judge they can do so by wager a point (if they have one). If they lose the call contest they will also lose their point. If they win the call contest they will keep their point.
After bladers have revealed their beyblades, both bladers will make any mode changes to their blade behind their deck box or by turning around. Once bladers have finished their mode change they will announce "SET" to alert the judge and their opponent they have completed their mode change. If a blader or both bladers decide not to make any changes they have made their decision to stay in their current mode and can not make any further adjustments.
Self K.O. (double elimination only):
There will be no non-contact self k.o. grace period. Any beyblade that leaves the stadium without contact is considered to have self k.o.'d and 1 point is awarded to the opposing blader.
Issues with rules:
If you have an issue with a rule and would like to voice it, please refrain from doing so during the tournament, no rules will be adjusted during the day of the event. Please leave all your concerns in the WBO thread for consideration.
