With the return of some of the old PvP events, I figured we should stick something new in as well. I know we have discussed this form of PvP many times but it would be nice to actually try it out. So in a quick description off wiki, this is what Dodgeball is about.

Dodgeball
"Dodgeball is a special way to play PvP strictly for recreational purposes, with rules invented and self-enforced by the players. Its casual nature lends itself very well with Scrimmage battles, but can also be done as GvG. The basic idea behind the game came from the fact that lightning orb is a projectile weapon, meaning it can be dodged by strafing and avoided by obstacles. The goal revolves around dodging the Lightning Orbs thrown by the other team, and at the same time killing the other team with your own orbs. Maximum health of all players are lowered to 105 through the use of 5 Superior Runes, so that a single orb hit at 12 Air Magic (which deals 108 damage to 60AL targets after armor penetration) will kill a player.

There are many variants on the rules, banning or requiring certain other skills or equipment to keep the game dynamics fun.

Some games use the flag stand as the boundry that players cannot cross. Some games are fight-to-the-death, while others are 60-DP-and-you-are-out. Teams generally range from 4v4, which allows for a referee, to 8v8."

Along with the 8v8 scrims, I will be trying to set up teams for this maybe once a week as well. Everyone is welcome to join so get out there and have fun!
