Ice Sumo

Event Ice Sumo
Orchestrated by	Zolyx
Date	Periodic

Rules:

• Smack the other player across the ice, into the water.
• Repeat

Note: In the early tournaments, matches could last minutes, leading to very long rounds and overall contests.

To remedy this, after the January 2017 tournament, "shrinkage" was introduced. After a certain time of fighting (usually about 90 seconds), the size of the Ice Rink shrinks by a couple of blocks diameter. This increases the ability for players to knock each other into the water. This shrinkage can repeat up to 4(?) times, every 60-90 seconds decreasing the diameter of the rink by 1-2- blocks.
