That's right everybody, it's time to have tumblrs favourite lancers duke it out in the arena

To start let's make sure we're all on the same page

What is a Lancer?: put simply, a Lancer is character who serves as a foil to/contrast their leader. They must be part of a group of 3 or more.

Ideal lancers are generally kind of an asshole, jaded, snarky, more morally grey than the leader and often oppose the leader. While these are great none are strictly necessary. They can be stoic, part of the bad guy team, or even a half Lancer half leader with another half Lancer half leader. Characters can Lancer and be lancered by multiple people. It's unlikely I'll accept real people or Ocs so unless you can bring a great, long argument for their inclusion so if you can't then don't bother

Usual brackets style, a series of one-on-ones, progressing through several rounds. Fighters will mostly make it to round 1 based on number of submissions(spaming is negative submissions) but when theres equal submissions remaining I'll chose based on how convincing your descriptions are.
