Trial of Blood

Lok'tar Ogar!

The Orcs of the Red Blade invite you to participate in the Trials of Blood, once an ancient rite of the orc tribes to decide which could deem itself the fiercest of all tribes. The Trials of Blood will be held in the Ring of Trials in Nagrand, in one moon-cycle. This great arena was once the battle-stage of the most renowned and infamous warriors known on Draenor. Now history will repeat itself.

The three champions of each invited guild may participate in the Trials of Blood. These teams will battle eachother for the pride and glory, and a grand prize of one hundred gold pieces. Surely, you will defend your honour in the arena?

May steel clash and blood be spilled!

-----------------

(Originally organised by Vaernas of Ashen Enclave, though I'm just sharing the message here)
Basically the Trials of Blood is another arena-style PvP event on invitational held in the Nagrand arena area. The guilds mentioned below were selected to join us in this event. It's a 3v3 knock-out arena event. The three best, the champions of each guild are expected to join and defend their guild's honour! If you weren't invited, I am sorry But we try to keep it on a small/medium scale to preserve the quality of the event.

How you chose your three champions is up to you. I advise you to set up some kind of sub-tournament, however, to let faith decide which will be your gladiators.

Each team will be appointed a location around the arena to prepare for matches. The supporters of each team are asked to sit on the tribune high in the arena, when the matches start. For those without a flying mount: Fear not, we are supplied with warlocks, so you can be summoned up on the tribune, or to Nagrand for that matter.

Points of notice

Can/Can't
Can:
|Use consumables created by own spells. (Healthstone, Mana Emerald etc.)

Can't:
|Leave the arena floor.
|Use engineering items, bandages, potions, and other trivial items which are not trinkets.

In case the fight is interrupted by outside players the fight will immediately be considered invalid and repeated. [disclaimer: taken from SGE. Hope they won't mind!]
