Forts - 1v1 Meme Tournament

[p][/p][hr][/hr]
G'day Forts fans!
[p][/p][p]Now that the 5th season of the FPL is over, the time has come at last to bring some smaller events in between seasons. This one will be very special, and first of its kind: a meme tournament![/p][p]Bored of seeing the same strategies being pulled off over and over? This tournament will specialize in crazy contraptions, strange physics interactions, and unintended strategies the devs never had in mind when making the game! It will be held on July 12th at 7pm UTC. It will be a simple 1v1 single elimination tournament, all matches being best of 1 except for the finals being bo3.[/p][p]In order to win a match, you will have to use a strategy with the most significant part being unintended by the developers. This includes but is not limited to:[/p]
  • [p]Tier 3 weapons (vertical cannons for instance)[/p]
  • [p]Particle accelerators[/p]
  • [p]Concentratinators/runes[/p]
  • [p]Pile style Slingshots (not necessarily of your core...)[/p]
[p]Using a standard strategy will result in disqualification. Also, the player who pulls off the most spectacular meme strategy during the tournament (decided by admins and audience) will get an extra $20![/p][p] [/p][p]Registration will open at 7pm UTC on the 16th of June. In order to register, every participant should ping 42scientist on the Forts Official Discord server with their challengermode account linked, and then be invited on Challengermode. Only the first 16 will be able to participate, so be quick![/p][p] [/p][p]Hosts: Project Incursus Salzwerk
