Tags and Tournament TypesRanksGenerally monsters should not be entering tournaments that are in ranks that are beyond what they are in. However it is possible to enter a tournament that is either one rank higher or lower than your actual rank. There are side effects if you do this however.
Entering a lower rank
Being stronger you have a +25% bonus to your rolls. However due to the ease of things both the monster and player earn no EXP.
Entering a higher rank
This is difficult but not impossible. You rolls are at a -25% penalty due to being outranked. Entering a higher rank tournament does not count towards ranking up requirements.
F rank tournaments are free-for-alls Anyone can enter no matter the rank or if they have a monster. There is a magic to these tournaments that make all combatants the same power level.
