Inception OldSquad Soccer System & League

[ADMIN]

Hi there, OldSquaders!

Not sure how many of you like fun activities in this game, except of exp and AFK/Hunt, but for those that like to have fun from time to time, we've come with a HOT new system!

OldSquad Soccer System - Our new UNIQUE Soccer System.

Why we're calling it UNIQUE? Because it is totally different compared to a normal System.
Before telling you details about this new system we have 2 things to announce:

• We'll need 2 teams that want to "showcase" this System on Test-Server, to make sure it works perfectly before releasing it.
• When everything will be 100%, we'll release our OldSquad Soccer League, which is a 2 weeks championship, more details after presenting the Soccer System.

Soccer System:

• Just like in the normal Soccer, there will be 2 teams fighting in the Soccer Stadium, located in Arena.
• Each team must have its own dedicated Guild to participate at the Soccer.
• A team can consist of 1 up to 5 players.
  • Gameplay:
    • All soccer participants will be granted with 100% absorb of damage.
      • That means, you won't be able to kill any of the opponents (so, anyone is free to join, no matter level/resets).
    • In order to win, you'll have to be the first team to reach 5 goals (100 points).
  • HOT:
    • Instead of damaging opponents, each player will have a "STUN" effect, added on the first attack every 20 seconds.
      • Basically, you will be able to STUN opponents, one at a time, with a 20 seconds cooldown between stuns.
      • The first touch of the opponent (skill/left click) when cooldown is available will cause the STUN effect.
    • Each character can use only ONE skill at soccer, and there are different STUN durations:
      • Lightning: SM, EMG
      • Penetration: AE
      • Force Skill: DL
      • Weapon Skill: BK, SMG
      • Chain Drive: RF
      • Drain Life: SUM
    • Stun Duration:
      • Range: 4 seconds (SM,AE,SUM,EMG)
      • Medium Range: 5 seconds (DL)
      • Melee: 6 seconds (BK,SMG,RF)
  • HOT:
    • Every 15 seconds, 1 random player from each team will be BUFFED or CURSED.
      • The effect will be the same for both teams (if one is BUFFED the other is BUFFED as well, with the same effect).
      • There is a 33% chance for BUFF and 66% chance for CURSE.
      • Duration of buffs/curses is 10 seconds.
      • Buffs: 
        • Quickness Effect - It will boost movespeed.
        • Mana Shield Effect - Immune to stuns from players.
      • Curses: 
        • Ice Effect - Will decrease movespeed.
        • Order of Restraint Effect - Will chain the character, making it unable to move.
        • Blind Effect - Will block the character soccer skill.

Note: System can be adjusted based on your feedback.

OldSquad Soccer League:

After the Soccer System will reach its final version, we'll start the registration for OldSquad Soccer League.

• You will need a team of 3 characters (must be different classes).
  • You can also have 1-2 backup persons (again, different classes).
• There will be a total of 8 teams allowed (first 8 registered + the next 3 as "back-up" in case first 8 don't participate).
• One Season will last for 2 weeks, with 2 rounds (1 round each week).
• During each week, each team must play versus the rest of the teams (7 games per team).
  • The date/hour will be set at a common agreement between teams captains.
    • When a date is confirmed by both, staff must be noticed, if one of the teams won't be there at that hour, the other one wins automatically.
  • One win = 1 point.
  • One lose = 0 points.
• At the end of the 2 weeks, the first 3 teams with most points will win some nice rewards.
• The last 2 teams from Season will be eliminated from League, and won't be able to join the next Season.
  • 2 new slots will be open for 2 new teams on each Season, + x extra slots based on teams that don't want to continue.

How will the showcase teams be chosen and will everyone be able to practice on Test Server before the event goes live?

We won't choose, we just need at least 2 teams testing the system and bringing feedback/reports, any number of teams will be able to test the system anytime after it is done and up on test-server.

While the league will have its own games, the soccer system can be used anytime after release, by any guilds that want to have fun or train for the League.

Thank you!

We're close to finish the beta version, most probably it will be ready tomorrow, when we'll need you to test it, any team/players singing up for tomorrow?

I'm available, my guys might be depending on the time.

I think STUN effect should be reduced to stun maximum of 2 targets at once or even 1. If you make it like this - will bring even more tactics to the game.

There is no AoE stun as there are only single-target skills available for all classes. You can STUN only one character at a time, then wait cooldown for next STUN.

Coming up with new info, presenting the classes attributes at soccer:

• RF: 
  • PRO: 8 Seconds STUN.
  • PRO: Very powerful shots on Ball.
  • CONS: 2 Range on Soccer Skill (Chain Drive).
  • CONS: Can't get Ball out of bad zones.
• SM/EMG:
  •  PRO: 6 Range on Soccer Skill (Lightning).
  • CONS: 5 seconds STUN.
• BK/SMG:
  • PRO: 8 seconds STUN.
  • CONS: 3 Range on Soccer Skill (Cyclone).
  • CONS: Can lose control of the Ball, being moved back.
• DL: 
  • PRO: 6 seconds STUN.
  • CONS: 4 Range on Soccer Skill (Force).
• AE:
  • PRO: 6 Range on Soccer Skill (Penetration).
  • PRO: Can use left-click attack with 6 range that can STUN as well.
  • PRO: Blind Curse doesn't reduce AE's power (she can use left-click if skill is blocked).
  • CONS: 4 seconds STUN.
• SUM:
  • PRO: 5 Range on Soccer Skill (Drain Life).
  • PRO: 15s cooldown on STUN instead of 20.
  • CONS: 5 seconds STUN.

Other mentions:

• You can't use items at Soccer (looking at you, Antidote!).
• Pets (Fenrir/Dark Horse/Raven/Uniria/Dino) are not allowed at Soccer (you get Stun until you put them in Inventory).
