School of Brock (May 22nd)

[Tranzmaster]

 

Explanation:

Brock is searching for a new apprentice! Prove him you're worthy by showing off your battling and trivia skills!

The trivia questions will be asked in shout chat. The player who answers a trivia question (in shout/normal chat) correctly and is first, moves on to the next round. The others battle each other for a spot in the next round. The tier is UU.

 

Round 1: 21 players: 5 trivia questions. The other 16 battle each other for the 8 spots in the next round.

Round 2: 13 players: 3 trivia questions. The other 10 battle each other for the 5 spots in the next round.

Round 3: 8 players: 2 trivia questions. The other 6 battle each other for the 3 spots in the next round.

Round 4: 5 players: 1 trivia question. The other 4 battle each other for the 2 spots in the next round.

Round 5: 3 players: 1 trivia question. The other 2 battle each other for the last spot in the final.

Will skill swap + baton pass get officially banned from using on that tournament? :|

Also like because of the awesome poster, only Walrus' and Orangeslash's arts can compare to this piece of art

I take it there isn't a way to just win the entire event with superior trivia knowledge?

You can get into the finals with trivia alone, but you'd still need to play the finals match in a 6v6 UU format.

 

It would still get you 500 RP if you succeed though.

I only wanted to know because if it was that way I could have won both a Shiny Onix and a Shiny Steelix off of Tranzmaster trivia events.
