Nicely set out rules. Will think about building but IRL seems very restrictive for anything I'd want to build in the BW class.

this thread's name made me think of Click getting beaten for some reason... pretty sure IRL BW and DSL-S BW aren't that different by the way.

I am also unsure about your controlled movement rule, it looks unclear and confusion-inducing to me.

Otherwise I have a rammer idea, so I will build something. If I remember :P

2 v 2 match format? Are bots getting randomly paired up? Or did you mean a 4-way match?

Whoops, thanks for catching that. I meant 1 vs 1 matches. Fixed now along with some other mistakes I may have missed.

Also, is there a way to fix this into a poll? I didn't realize the "new poll" option until I have posted this tournament idea.

Edit: Never mind, I found it.

Okay, There are now 8 votes, but before I PM Craaig, are there any other things you would like me to include or change in the rules?
