25 YO KT KO Round Robin Format Tournament


Dragon Reborn

Recommended Posts

As a promotion to help fill some cards AON will be hosting a 25 year old creation KO tournament.

This tournament will be different than what you are used to.

All fighters will be 25 year old creations weight 265-270lbs as this tournament will take place in the 265 division.

Scoring will not be based on wins, but on KO/TKO finishes.

The idea number for this tournament would be 10 fighters.  We will roll with 8 if we do not fill the full 10 slots.

Fights will be 14-15 days apart.  14 days unless a fighter has a 15 day injury in which we will push the date back one more day to clear the injury flag.

This will prevent the tournament from taking several months to complete.

Every fighter will fight every other fighter one time.

Points are very basic and simple.

Win: 2 points

TKO/KO : 5 points 

Inflict Cut: 1 point

Decision: -1 point 

 

**For future rules, TKO(CUTS) will not be counted as a full 5 points due to the injury inflicts and slowing of the tournament progress.  Cuts still score points as do KOs, but doctor stoppage will result in reduced points of 3 instead of 5 for the finish.  This will not be implemented in this season to keep things fair.**

 

Winner of this tournament will receive 2 million tycoon cash and a KO King trophy. (Increased from 1mil) 

Knockout King

 

If there is interest, this will be a repeating tournament where we change up the weight class every time.  Any donations towards the prize pool will be accepted and added.  The award is All or Nothing, as is the org name, so winner take all in this one.  

 

TIPS:

Remember your fighter will be able to train, but your skills to start off are vital.  Focus on your striking skills as this is a KT tournament.

Focus on your build and the fact that you want to get finishes.  Decisions will not win this thing for you.

This is a KO tournament.  Points for finishes matter.  Your fighter will have power for being this size so plan your hiddens accordingly.

What is the creation date and how long do we get to train before the first round of fights?

The creation date will depend on when we get 10 fighters.

 

The first round will be 4 weeks after the creation date.  So 4 weeks. 

 

This is a 25 YO creation so they will already have decent points at start.

Hey Dragon,

I do have one 'dealbreaker' question..

We will be allowed to create more than one fighter and test them before finally entering a fighter?

Honestly, it's not that I'm looking for an advantage in the tourney, more that, win or lose, I don't want to invest so much time (10 player round robin is a long tourney) on a fighter with no future.

yes test away.  first fight will not happen any sooner than 14 days of creation, so you'll have at least a week to sort it out.  Once the date of the first fight is set you will have to submit your fighter one week prior to the first fight.
