NYCYDC - House Cup Monthly Tournament

Details

Welcome to the NYCYDC Monthly House Cup!

This Yugioh GX-inspired tournament has you taking on the role of a student at Duel Academy!

This tournament will be conducted in Advanced format and newcomers of all ages and skill levels welcome!

Duel Academy has its 3 iconic houses:

Obelisk House (Blue)
Ra House (Yellow)
Slifer House (Red)

This tournament will be conducted in a freestyle format. You can duel against anyone you like in open matches and your Wins and Losses are calculated as follows:

+500 points per game win
+250 points per game loss
-100 points per surrender

Your goal is to duel against as many people you can to earn points. Your points will carry over to every monthly House Cup tournament. Win or lose, the more you play, the more you earn!

When you earn a certain amount, you’ll be able to stake those points in a Promotion Duel! Each of the three houses has a head of house (think like Crowler, Sartyr and Banner, the heads of house from GX).
Dueling a head of House will come with its own set of rules where you may lose points for a certain action done in a duel. Winning a duel against the head of House will award you with double the amount you’d normally win in a match! Losing however will result you in losing the same amount of points as well. The stakes will be high!

Have fun dueling and earning points!

Tournament Rules:

  1. Be respectful to other duelists. We will not allow or tolerate any form of toxic behavior.
  2. Arrive on time! As much as we’d love to duel all day, we have a time limit for our tournaments.
  3. No cheating of any kind! If we catch players cheating they will be removed indefinitely.
  4. Respect the cards and handle with care. Don’t damage the cards, because you wouldn’t like it if someone else did the same to your cards.
  5. Thievery is strictly prohibited. If we catch wind of anyone stealing cards or personal belongings, you will no longer be welcomed.
  6. Focus on dueling. We love to have a good time and chat with our fellow friends but respect the duel and do not distract or stray away.
  7. Respect the RSVP! If you plan to attend and do not show up then you’re wasting everyone’s time. Always make it known if you are attending or if you cannot attend.
  8. Food and drinks are allowed but do not eat during a duel and do not make a mess!
  9. Slow play of any kind will result in an immediate loss. We are implementing a 5 minute rule for each players turn and this includes responding to a card or effect. If the timer reaches 0 then you will automatically lose the game (not match unless it’s game 2 or 3)
  10. Have fun! Enjoy the game and the presence of other duelists.

Our monthly tournament will also be open to the public for anyone to join.
