3-leg Team PVP Event - sign-ups

If you want to go fast, go alone.  If you want to go far, tie your middle legs together.

Inspired by original EtG's 3-man PvP
Hosted by asdw152 and Septima Rhay

Team and Element-use Rules:
Players unite as 2-player teams.  Each team plays three best-of-5 matches each round; each match is a 'leg' that can be played by 1 of the 2 teammates.  A player must play at least 1 leg/match per event round.  Once per event may one team member play all 3 matches in the round (only due to scheduling/availability issues).  Teams choose 1 element for each match/leg and 1 overall team element. For each match/leg, there will be a randomly assigned 'battle element' that apply to both players in the match/leg.  So, for each match/leg, the player builds decks from 3 elements: (1) team element, (2) leg element, and (3) battle element.  We are using a swiss-style, double elimination match format.  Teammates should discuss how to manage deck building, scheduling matches, which leg(s) to play, etc.

Spoiler for Team/element example:
Team name: Lodes-of-fun   vs
Team element:  :earth
Leg 1 element:  :entropy
Leg 2 element:  :air
Leg 3 element:  :aether
     Team name: Stacked
     Team element:  :gravity
     Leg 1 element:  :death
     Leg 2 element:  :water
     Leg 3 element:  :time

For each leg/match, the event hosts will randomly assign a 'battle' element. Example:

Round 1 battle element for Leg 1:  :life
Lodes-of-fun Leg 1 builds decks with  :earth :entropy :life
Stacked Leg 1 builds decks with  :gravity :death :life

Round 1 battle element for Leg 2:  :light
Lodes-of-fun Leg 2 builds decks with:  :earth :air :light
Stacked Leg 2 builds decks with:  :gravity :water :light


Deckbuilding Rules:

Players build decks for each leg/match that consist only of cards from their 3 available elements (as noted in the above Team/element rules section).   Battle elements are randomly determined before each matchup is posted.  Battle elements cannot be either of the two dueling players' 'leg' element or 'team' element and will always be something else.

- Each deck may use 10 upgraded cards
- No non-ppm chroma cards
- You may change decks between games
- You may use Pillars, Pendulums, and Mark cards (ppm) quanta cards) that don't match your 3 Elements
- You must use at least 2 of your 3 Elements in each deck (If you use an element, you must use at least 4 non-quanta cards)
- You may not use the same combination of elements more than twice in a match (This refers to your 3 Elements); the trio counts as a different combo - basically there's 8 possible combos per best-of-5 match.

The size of each deck is not limited, however there is a maximum number of cards in your deck that can be from one single element (see specific numbers in spoiler below).  This means all decks must be a duo or trio. 

Spoiler for Max cards from 1 element per decksize:
Decks sized 30-39 may have no more than 25 cards from one element
Decks sized 40-49 may have no more than 32 cards from one element
Decks sized 50-60 may have no more than 38 cards from one element
Spoiler for Deck examples assuming player has earth, entropy, and life:
Earth/Entropy duo
054vc0150u024vo024vn0958o015aa0658u0259202594045930159f0259l0558r035c9018pn
3 Life cards in deck means life is NOT used. 40-49 size deck with maximum 32 earth cards.

now it's a trio
054vc0150u024vo024vn0958o015aa0658u0259202594045930159f0259l0558r015c8035c9018pn

illegal entropy life duo
054sa074vc0550u014vl064vm024vn01590035cr018pn
Not enough of 2nd element (4 card min) to qualify as duo; note that graboid is legal in deck

legal entropy life duo
044sa064vc0550u014vl02503034vm014vn045cr045i4018pn
Note that water and quantum pillars are allowed in this deck
