RPGVO 2023 Nomination Thread

[074]

It's that time again.  Another EVO, another RPGVO.  Your favorite full-bracket double elimination tournament is back - with some minor changes.

Once again, use the CKDL Ranked List.  Please try to nominate ranked duellers.


A couple of new rules, however:

Substitution Summons are banned.  You may opt to nominate a version of the character without them, but the summons (Aeons, BoF3 Dragons, Call Team) are not allowed in any capacity.

Eject effects are now banned.  By popular demand, ring-outs are no longer a consideration.  As with the summoning rule, characters with Eject are still allowed but they will not have access to that in their moveset.

The following Godlikes have been banned in the interest of keeping Godlike more interesting this season: Zophar(L:EBC), Lady(SH3), Myria(BoFs), Ghaleon(Lunars), Fou Lu(BoF4), Xorn(G3), Souji Seta(P4), Profound Darkness(PS4), Elc(AtLC), Indalecio(SO2) .  This list may be subject to future adjustments.

Shedinja(PKMN) is also banned for the reason that it is simply incompatible with the format.

Other than that, feel free to nominate four to six characters per division.  Have fun.

EDIT: Nominations will be extended to 08/11/23.
