Pick/Ban
With Over 1800+ and counting pets to choose from, it has created a roster of fighters that is too large for fair play in a blind pick situation.
So we will be instituting a pre-fight phase. This pre-fight phase consists of selecting 15 pets to form your roster (this is like a deck in a card game), then banning some of your opponent's roster, likewise, your opponent does the same for you. During this phase, you will also be selecting 3 pets from your roster for your final team. To help with this we've created a website tool! Pet-Draft.com
How to use:
1. A host accesses pet-draft.com and inputs the player's usernames.
2. A custom link is generated for both players to access the site.
3. Both Players Select "I am Ready"
4. Each Player puts in the 12 pets they have picked for their initial roster in the list. (players should have this list decided upon beforehand)
5. Upon seeing their opponent's choices each player may now choose 3 additional pets to counter anything they may see.
6. Follow the instructions on the top of the screen in GREEN.
If it is not your turn the Text at the Top will be in RED.
7. Whenever finished picking and banning, each player will have a team of 3 Battle Pets.
This will be the team you use against your opponent in your match.
This will be the team you use against your opponent in your match.
A Second Match
8. After a short amount of time, a button will pop up for another round.
Once both players have confirmed you will be taken back to step 6.
A Video Explanation of the Pick and Ban System:
< Notes >
When a player BANS a pet it is BANNED for both sides.
When a player PICKS a pet it does not remove selection from their opponent to also choose that same pet for their own team, if their opponent had that pet as a choice in their pool as well.
Pet abilities are not banned and likewise your ability choices are not known to your opponent before each match.
The match begins after the last pet has been selected and both players are ready to begin.
After each match the pool of choices is reset to 15 and each player begins the pick/ban system again.
