The Prize

With the recent addition of Clan Wars to Old School, now seems like a fitting time to announce the Clan Cup 2014. While PvP will make up the majority of the event, this year’s Clan Cup will also see the addition of two PvM cups and one Skilling cup. On the 7th July registration will open for the Clan Cup and we would like your feedback prior to this.


 
PvP Cups
This year there will be five PvP cups for clans to compete in; All-Out Cup, Pure Cup, Capped Cup, King of the Hill and Team Cup.

clanwarosrsdevblog-20154444.PNGThe All-Out Cup is what it says on the tin, it is an all-out battle and you can bring as many people as you can pull. This Cup will highlight those clans with really active players who know how to fight in large groups.

The Pure Cup is the same as the All-Out Cup, but Defence-noobs are not allowed. All participating clan members must be 25 Defence or lower.

The Capped Cup limits the amount of players you bring to each battle to 30 per clan. This cup will highlight high level clans with really strong war leadership and organisation.

The Team Cup will be limited to 8 players per side and is a great chance for small PK teams to show that they are best PvPers in Old School.

The King of the Hill Cup will be a great way for clans to show that they can do more than just kill. Every war will take place in the King of the Hill game mode available at Clan Wars and will be limited to 30 members per side. An objective to achieve brings a new challenge to the table for any competing clans. Only clans that truly know how to work as a unit will be able to stand a chance in this cup.


 
PvM Cups
There will be two PvM cups; the Endurance Cup and Head-to-Head Cup. Any events taking place within the PvM cup will be held at the PvM Arena.

The PvM Arena will be a safe area in which different boss monsters will be spawned depending on the event taking place. Clan leaders will be able to access the PvM Arena and invite their members between the times of 6pm BST Saturday and 2am BST Sunday.

The Endurance Cup will test a clan’s ability to make the least mistakes possible and to know the bosses they are up against. A group of 15 clan members will be invited into the PvM Arena in which a series of bosses will spawn once per minute. The challenge is to get as many kills as possible before the last member of the team dies, and the two teams that top that list will move on into a final Endurance challenge.

The Head-to-Head Cup is a battle between two clans to steal kills away from the opposition. Both clans will be set up in the PvM Arena where bosses will be randomly spawned, the clan that deals the most damage to any boss that spawns will get a point. The clan that has the most points by the end of the one hour time limit will be the victor.

To prevent any underhanded tactics being used, there will be a display board outside that will display the results of the events that have taken place.

Skilling
The Skilling Cup will allow skilling clans to test their total levels against each other. Each week a different skill will be chosen and the Skilling Arena will be opened up to 5 members of each clan for one hour. The Skilling Arena will be filled to the brim with resources to train the skill of the week, and the clan that gains the most points by training the skill in the arena will take home the gold. The Skilling Arena will OSR_-_fishing_harpoon-19182204.jpgonly be available for the timed challenge during the Skilling Cup and no experience will be gained there.

At the end of the 5 weeks that the Clan Cup will run for, the Skilling clan with the most points will be declared the winner of the Skilling cup.

As with the PvM Arena, there will be a notice board outside of the Skilling Arena to show the results of any events that have taken place.

Tournament Progression
PvP Cups
The progression of the PvP section of the tournament will be very simple, with a loss meaning elimination.

PvM Cups
For the Endurance Cup the first four weeks of the competition will be used to host the Endurance challenge for all clans entered. In order to retain the competitive aspect of this cup and step up the challenge a touch, the clans with the two highest scores will then re-take the Endurance challenge with the bosses spawning at a rate of one per 30 seconds for the week five final. The clan that gets the most Endurance points in the final will take the cup.

The progression of the Head-to-Head cup will be elimination style, with the losing team of each matchup being eliminated.

Skilling Cup
The points gained by all clans would be totalled after the final week’s event and the clan with the highest overall Skilling points would win the cup.


 
The Prize4HrATpM.png
The winners of each cup will become permanent fixtures in the landscape of Old School, with every winning clan getting a dedicated statue in an appropriate location somewhere in the game. If a player left clicks a statue, they will see a message boasting the victory of the clan and letting them know what cup they took.
