Regular MMR season begins!

Hail all,

Thank you for participating in MMR: Snow Wars! With the end of that last season and Winterflame festivities, I'm pleased to announce a new season of regular MMR!

For a reminder:

This is essentially a 1 versus 1 series of fights through each month, with kombatants fighting each other once in a round robin fashion - i.e. one best-of-one fight between each contestant who has signed up with each other contestant in their bracket.

The scoring is simple - 2 points to the victor, 1 point for draws, and 0 for losses.

There is a twist to this monthly ranking system - you may fight against your opponents once more as another class! So if you have 4 classes, you can fight up to 4 times against each opponent through the month, but you have to use a different class each time.
For example, if I have 4 classes, I can fight against opponent A four times; once as a Fury, once as a Scoundrel, once as an Engineer, and once as a BEAST. I may not use the same class against the same opponent more than once.

The scores will thus be split into 6 categories: one for each class (5), and one overall points score table (1)

There will be prizes for the top person of each class per month, and for the top 3 fighters overall each month. The prizes will include credits and temporary titles for the month!!

What if you don't have enough credits or experience in another class, you ask? I shall subsidize a portion of credits needed to get lessons for classes if need be. This shall be capped at 300 credits per individual and I shall grant the subsidy at my own discretion.

As for experience - reach out to any of our kombatants in Clan Mournal Kombat and we shall gladly help with advice or spars!

Please send me a message if you have any questions or if you would like to sign up!

Come on down and TEST YOUR MIGHT!

In Honour,
Xuthori
