Unfortunatelly the DW magician with 1 or 2 Laanx Mind weapons can compare themselves with Brw magician as for then They will sing up in the BrW category. If not it would be very unfair for other magicians with no capacity to adquiere a Laanx mind.
When comparing any two different magic ways the outcome is basically guaranteed from the start. A maxed dark way mage with 2 working laanx's mind weapons WILL lose to a brown way mage, just like a maxed crystal way mage would lose to that dark way mage. None of the ways are close enough to being equal strength that you can't predict the outcome in advance.
acualy vannaka as i have seen it hapen a dw mage with 2 lanxx minds and a max brw mage.... both uising the same cast method for the fastest casting posable in game.... the brw mage won by 0.7% heath each time i saw it tested and preaty much the same with CW vs DW witch i tested myself.... the DW beet the CW to 20% health each time but by just that much..... compaired with trying to dodge the warriors attacks i think it will be fairly even to do it this way
and if the warrior lands a hit the other mage will be casting rapid fire at the enamy mage aswell so that would make the target switch back almost instantly.... maby max one cast to the warrior
so that solves your problem there
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I figure after reading Vannaka’s honest critique which highlighted many of the shortcomings that are inherent in a tournament of this type,
I feel compelled to add upon what has already been said. Here are a few points that I must reinforce and make clear to those organizing this tournament.
1) As Vannaka has already stated, once you commit to isolating Brown Way mage teams to a separate category by default you should then
separate all classes of mages into their own category based on the same principle guiding you to the decision to have Brown way combatants put
in their own class. It is no mystery to those with experience in combat magic that certain ways of magic will always win over others without the element
of surprise or an unbalanced use of potions.
i disagree with separating all classes of mages into difrent dules because if we do this the shere variaty of the ways will make it so that there is only two or 3 in the crystal catagory, the same with the dark way catagory and probably 10 or more in the brown way catagory {also with the dark way in the same catagory then unlike vannaka who gets tria preaty easaly what about thows people who dont have all day to spend on ps and mine and so therefor dont have 2 million tria to spend on a pair of lanxx mind weapons and then have vannaka or some other dw mage kill them all because of it.... i for one dont see that as fair or fun witch is why i personaly told xemmas of my fealings on this and of what the facts were about 2 lanxx mind weilding max dw mages and BRW mages.... there both basicly equil when there matched against each other
----------------------------------------------------------------------
2) The use of magic in organized tournaments leaves hardly anything up to skill but rather on initial reaction time and the power of the spells, they
sling at their opponent. In addition, the lethality of magic used properly makes the presence of a combatant using close range weapons nothing
more then a nuisance to the mages on either side. Only mages who lose track of the fighter or are of lesser intelligence will have any trouble avoiding
the warrior of the other team while they attempt to dispatch the other mage. After the mages batter and one is left victorious he then
(with the current rules in place) has enough mana to easily kill the other team’s warrior who is not allowed to use any magic or potions to heal himself.
any mage can loose track of the fighter at any time.... just think we are going to be in the death realm lybrary.... there are 3 book shelvs witch any fighter can duck behind and hit the mage or they can go for a strate on atack..... when im using magic and im trying to cast dw {fastest atack spell in the game} and im running around about 1 3rd of my casts are cancled because i am turning {witch you will have to do in order to keep alive in there} and mages can always be seen in position wise from the fighter as they are casting spells and the spells have GUI that goes in one direction.... that meens a clever eye can pin point the area the GUI is coming from and therefor pinpoint the mage and as for the mana isue i feal the warriors should also have healing potions and after one full health refill then the mage will be out of mana and it will be up for the other teams warrior to take the enamy warrior out.... this is not a flaw this would be fair..... this also meens that if the enamy warrior hits your friendly mage they are going to die and there for you will aswell...... its not unfair it is a resonable step to make the tourny worth acualy relying on the warriors.... the warriors should be a valued part of the team and should be usefull they should have to work towards there prize insted of just relying on the mage to slauter evrything in there path
and as far as ways other then dark crystal and brown.... i have no clue about them but i highly doubt a way mage with anything other then thows ways used will enter being as thows ways are not close to combat effective and this is a fight to the death but i myself will try to find ways to acomadate these other mages {just dont hold me acountable if i cant because it will be hard}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This brings me to why I even speak up about the concerns I have for such a tournament. I would like to see this tournament work and be fun for all that are
involved because it is fresh and if effort is taken it can become one to remember. However, there is much think over and adjust before this form of tournament
can be successful and entertaining to those watching and those participating. Please feel free to contact me and I will offer any advice I can on how to make this
tournament come together. Also, I am sure all of the people Vannaka mentioned as well as Vannaka himself could also offer worthwhile advice.

*edit* new rules confermed posting
Quote
A Dlayo Gladiator approaches,
with no warning to attack a Stone Breaker and sent him to the Death Realm.
Not happy for the trip to the land of the goddess Dakkru, The Stone Breaker decide to pray,
Asking for the save travel of his spirit through the land of the death. He goes
into the Black Crystal room, Oriven looks at him for a moment and then he turns
his sight away from the Stone breaker.
By the skulls on the left of Oriven the dwarf put some night mushrooms and with a whisper he cast a spell from the red way and lights the mushrooms… The smell is everywhere, the Stone breaker sits by one of the books and starts to pray and meditates, and the effect of the
mushrooms is starting to affect the small creature and making him fall into a deep sleep…
Asleep the Stone breaker from the dark warmongers had a dream about the goddess Dakkru, she spoke to him… she reminds him in what he believes: In the death, in sacrifice. In the dream she spokes to him, telling him that is time for the livings to know the ways of the death,the meaning of self sacrifice.
Dakkru: Xemmas Egaveff I summoned you to honor my name in a tournament but not a normal one but a magic tournament a tournament in which death is the key to victory death will be the end of the road for you and your partner this will be a tournament of which the greatest
mage's and the greatest warriors fight it combat till the last man standing.
Xemmas: My great goddess! How can you be speaking to me!! Such an insignificant
dwarf! Or is just an effect of the mushrooms? NO! I believe in what I see! How
can I do such a thing! I’m not fit for the job!
Dakkru: yes you are my great Stone Breaker, You and your guild are my choice to
give the land of the dead some blood to be shed in the name of your great
goddess, and some entertainment for myself. Think and plan the great Tournament
of Shadows in my name!
Xemmas: I will do my best to try! I won’t disappoint you!
Dakkru: I hope you won’t, otherwise you will be punished for!
Was it real? Was it just a dream? Was the prey for something good really happening? The dwarf didn't know what to believe, He didn't know if real or not…but he cannot disrespect his goddess, and this message was a clear vision, at least for him.
Running he finds his way out of the Realm of Death, Runs to his guild mates that where gathered at the house, at the furs penthouse he runs into his mates, He convince all other guild mates to support a tournament of dark mage's and deadly warriors. The support he got was unbelievable and they start planning the tournament. The place had to be the Death realm for as the creatures in there are vile hideous beasts it is the perfect test for all who wish to take part must make their way past these beasts to continue to the dueling sight the great library, the library offers the knowledge of death and a perfect space and view. The librarian Londris will never oppose to the goddess wishes.
They believe the ways of the light are not fit to this tournament so the contenders had to travel to this land to fight. The duels will be held until the last man stands because the goddess is honored
by the act of death! Magic, was never used before in such form and will be the turning point and primary element of this tournament.
With a massive Sacrifice, guide by the most evil dwarf of the Warmongers, Calak, will lead the contestants into make a tribute to the goddess, and at the same time travel and be receive into her Realm, and grant the contestants luck and fortune in the great event.
