Styles of Battle

Styles of Battle

In Bakugan there are many styles to play the game, here we allow you to brawl in several of these styles with each one having special notes or rules to follow to help them run more smoothly. These styles are listed below:

1V1/2V2
 These are your normal matches, of singles and doubles. For doubles both teams will take turns posting where both members of each team will take turns posting for their team.

Battle Royal
Commonly done with 4 people all fighting one another, Battle Royals are often called a Free for All battle. In these matches Brawls are in Post order and normal rules still apply.

Boss Battle
Sometimes called 1 vs Many, these battles have two teams, one with only one player, while the other has all the other brawlers. The lone player will have extra life points of 500*players on the other team. This would mean that in a 1v5, the lone player would have 500*5 life points, in total 2500.

Player Challenges Admin
Not recommenced for low levels as these battles are very lopsided and are intended to be very freaking difficult. Each Admin this there own challenge for you to face, see the spoiler below if interested. This style also has its own rules which are listed below.

1) You MUST wait for an Admin to respond to the battle, whether that takes a few days or longer than a month. Admins are busy people and upon making the brawl you accept this fact. Once an Admin has responded, the three day rule still applies.

2) Admins will use Admin only cards, and they will still have 40 cards in their arsenal and follow the count rules. However, these Admin cards will have effects ranging from ones your used to, to ones special and unique to us. These unique Admin Cards are rather brutal, but remember that you decided to challenge an Admin. Do note that none of these effects will be so far beyond the realm of normalcy that it's obscene.

3) Admin cannot play Gate Cards. Only the challenger can to make things fair.

4) Admins can challenge a Player instead, be it for a Punishment or a Rank up test. Though, you'd rather it be a Rank Up test, because admins will have no mercy in Punishment Brawls.

5) Admins will have powerful Bakugan, which have their own unique powers. Beware these Bakugan. Grimm's makes things difficult with normal strategies. Blaze's will roast you for poor preparation. Creation's will see how well you can read and understand, quite literally.

6) If you can win this brawl, you will be rewarded generously. However, do note that punishment brawls cannot be won. You may wonder what the punishments are. Do hope you never have to find out yourself.

{Admins}
Grimm is all about losing control to the chaos. You need to plan around that.
Blaze is all about Attributes and how they apply. Versatility is key.
Creation is all about how your effects work. Not the Rules as Written effects, but how they're applied.

More Styles will be added as time goes on.

Baku-Rumble
 Aka Old School or Video Game. This has 3 Bakugan, 3 Gates, and 3 Abilities, 1 of each type for both card types. The Gate Cards can be reused but the Ability Cards cannot. You can have more then Gate Card on the field at a time.

To keep track of the board, we have a layout you can use.
The board will look like so, with the owner of the gate shown in text: 

• When placing Gate Cards it will look somewhat like the board on the right.
• The first person to post will be P1 aka Player 1 while the second person will be P2 aka Player 2, or variations.
• Player 1 and their Bakugan will always be shown in Red, while Player 2 and their Bakugan will be shown by Blue. 
• The Gates cannot be placed on diagonals, only above, below, left or right of one another, unless it is the first 2 Gate Cards.
• You can find the images for the Gates within the Resources thread posted by Blaze found here.

Memory is important for this game as to win you need to win 3 gate cards. You can win a gate card in two ways.
1) Win a battle (reverse G-Powers wins and higher G-Power wins), you can use ability cards in the battle step only.
2) Double stand, by having two Bakugan owned by the same player on a gate card, one can win that gate. While you can win with this in mind. An opponent can interfere or let you win. Certain gate cards have effects, other cards give a certain boost while others can remove g-power too.

Special rule: The upcoming move effect has two rulings thanks to this brawl. The first one is yet to be discussed. The second it not up for discussion.

Move: allows you to move a Bakugan outside of battle to another gate card, but not the one actually fighting.

To help keep track of things, you must list out your Bakugan, Gates and Abilities by name within a Spoiler.
This is so Staff can keep track or what is used for the brawl. Trying to use things not listed within the Spoiler will lead to immediate loss.
