TOURNAMENT FORMAT: No changes to the standard qualifications. Initial rounds will be round robin in pools. Number of pools and fighters in pools will be determined by the number of entrants.

Ties in the pools will be determined by tie breaker rounds as necessary. Single pass/best two out of three will be determined by the number of entrants. We are looking for the final victor to have roughly 20 passes during the tournament.
Weapons form is fighter's choice, finals are as we initially described, best 3/5.
Round 1: Great Weapon
Round 2: Sword and Weapon
Round 3: Sword and Shield
Round 4: Fighter’s choice
