Amarr Championship Day One Results

The first day of the Amarr Succession Trials are now over in what has become a very unique tournament. While the setup and execution of the tournament was identical to the Alliance tournament itself, the rules and compositions have been anything but.

The first weekend consisted of two unique elimination rounds designed to whittle down the number of participants from four per Royal House to one. For the first round of eliminations, each house was allowed to select from ships that best represented their house. The ship line-ups were as follows :

House Ardishapur Ruleset #1 (Used for Match 1 and Match 2):
Choose any four of the following ships, one for each team member (no ship type can be flown by more than one team member): Devoter, Oracle, Purifier, Sentinel, Sigil, Zealot

House Kador Ruleset #1 (Used for Match 3 and Match 4):
Choose any four of the following ships, one for each team member (no ship type can be flown by more than one team member): Crucifier, Executioner, Inquisitor, Magnate, Punisher, Tormentor
One pilot in the Inquisitor may fit remote repair modules if desired.

House Khanid Ruleset #1 (Used for Match 5 and Match 6):
Choose any four of the following ships, one for each team member (no ship type can be flown by more than one team member): Anathema, Curse, Damnation, Heretic, Malediction, Sacrilege, Vengance

House Kor-Azor Ruleset #1 (Used for Match 7 and Match 8):
Two team members fly Coercers, two team members fly Dragoons

House Sarum Ruleset #1 (Used for Match 9 and Match 10):
Choose any four of the following ships, one for each team member (no ship type can be flown by more than one team member): Absolution, Crusader, Guardian, Pilgrim, Retribution
One pilot in the Guardian may fit remote repair modules if desired.

House Tash-Murkon Ruleset #1 (Used for Match 11 and Match 12):
One team member flies a Legion, the other three team members fly Confessors

This produced some mixed and varied matches. You can watch the entire 6 and a half hours on the CCP twitch channel below or you can skip to the results. A follow up article will be added once these have been uploaded as individual videos.

Each of the losing competitors from the first round are eliminated from the competition.

Notable exits from this round included alliance tournament commentator Chessur and community favourite and self proclaimed Space Pope Max Singularity.

Round two began with some even more unusual ship restrictions, once again producing mixed matches.
