What is an Arcadian?
The Arcadian is a way for lesser known players to get a bigger chance to shine. The top 10 players on our power ranking will not be allowed to enter into the singles bracket. This means that Sethlon, Oracle, McBad, Denti, Infinity, Dakpo, Aerolink, AustinRC, Bwett, and Lunchables will not be able to take your money!
This tournament will also be added to the Power Ranking, giving you more chances to increase your score!If you're not satisfied with your current PR rank and are below top 10, this is your chance to redeem yourself and correct it. If you're the hot stuff, it will be YOU that will be playing lots of matches throughout the day, grinding against your peers for more points.
In addition, since I am confident that DFW is unstoppable in this game, even outside of our top 10, if there are at least 40 confirmed entrants on the Tourney Locator event, then I will award $50 to any player from outside DFW that makes top 3.
Play the Pros
Even though the singles tournament cannot be entered by ranked players, some of the top players will still be in the venue. Each of them will have $10, and you can challenge them to a best 2/3 singles set by wagering $1. If you lose, your dollar will be added to their pot, and if you win, you get all of the pro's money, and they go back down to $10. You can challenge each pro a maximum of THREE times throughout the day. The first two pros to challenge on this list is yours truly, Oracle, and CT|TLoc Denti!. (Note: this challenge is also only open to unranked players. Sorry, Sethlon)
Side Event
Tenatively, we have planned draft crews, where 1st and 2nd placers in the tournament will pick from the players there to form an 8 man crew. We can also do Waseda Doubles, which is random partner doubles, or a singles tournament where you can't play your main, or just turbo mode. Be sure to vote in the poll to find out!
