Battle item for your first round: let's go with ... X Attack

Also, are you sure the time deltas for the X-Speed and X-Acc are right?
It seems like you're adding / removing a lot of time from the short bursts and only a little time to the long ones

Hi, I'll add you to the list in a few.

Yes, they are correct since I chose them arbitrarily to give a little more flexibility than using percentages. Everyone perceives time differently. It's like doing an exam and you ask your teacher to give you more time to finish because you want a good grade or when you have a teacher that shortens the time because a student finished early.

For example, consider the 30 seconds part a quiz, using x speed is like being the student that finishes first in 15 - 20 seconds and then the teacher tells everyone they have 5 seconds to give their quizes or they will fail the quiz, and using an x accuracy would be like when students ask their teacher for a few extra seconds. For the longer parts would be like either a small test or a long test and x speed would be like ending the test a little earlier or using and x acc extending the test a little more.

Consider x speed the strict teacher and the x acc the flexible teacher.

I could consider changing it to actual percentages like decrease / increase time in 10% for both items and it would be for the first part either adding or substracting 3 minutes, for the second part would only add or reduce 18 seconds and the third part 3 seconds.

PD: In an alternate timeline I may have made those 2 items extremely broken like earthquake / psychic type were in gen 1. 😊

Round 1

That was fun, although I kinda miss last year's format where we started with smaller formats and grew in time.
Having to downscale your vision isn't fun, although I guess that's kinda the original point

 

[Chr. Draco]

It's ok, I understand. I tried the format the challenge was originally created to see if people liked it better than the reverse format I decided to use the first time I hosted the event.
I also preffer the reverse format so starting from next round I'll be using the reverse format.

 

[TwilightBlade]

This was fun as I haven't done any kind of digital art in probably a decade. Here was my attempt at Rowlet.

Next Round is in 2 hours from now.
