Objective Hex Open III

Updated: Jun 11, 2021


The Third Objective Hex Open


The premise of this tournament is to try the 5-3-1 format with new champions. We will draft five champions prior to each round, ban one of our opponent’s champions, and select our final three.

Here is the procedure for setting up a round for this tournament:

Step 1: Both players roll five Godtear dice, re-rolling any ties. The player with the higher result chooses to be PLAYER 1 or PLAYER 2.

Step 2: PLAYER 1 selects a champion and its follower unit to be part of their war band. This champion is no longer available for PLAYER 2 to select. Then PLAYER 2 player chooses a champion its follower unit to be part of the PLAYER 2's war band which then becomes unavailable for PLAYER 1 to select. Repeat this until both players have five unique champions and their follower units.

Step 3: PLAYER 1 chooses one of the five champions from PLAYER 2’s draft and bans them from the game. Player 2 may not use this champion this round. PLAYER 2 then bans one of Player 1’s champions. Player 1 may not use this champion this round.


Step 4: Both players secretly choose the three champions they will use for this game, leaving one of the four available inactive. Once both players have chosen, both players SIMULTANEOUSLY REVEAL their final warbands.

Step 5: PLAYER 1 is the first player on turn 1 and must deploy first as usual. Play the game normally.
