Champions of the Era (abbreviated as CotE) is a weekly ARMS tournament series organized by Era. The series began in the Summer of 2018 and is still having new events today.
Format
Like most weekly events, Champions of the Era runs double elimination brackets, regardless of entrant count. Players utilize Era's Discord server to communicate with their opponents as the brackets are ran on Challonge, a site that lacks player-to-player chat functions. Many of the early CotE events were streamed and commentated by Cedge. On occasion, there were also pre-event warm up lobbies ran by Rashiko and LiteraryFirearms of Casual ARMS.
Unlike most other tournaments, CotE does not use the "Backroom" stage list. This means that players have the option to play on traditionally non-legal stages such as Spring Stadium, Ramen Bowl, Sky Arena, and/or Ribbon Ring (Spring Stadium and Ribbon Ring are no longer included in the current stage list however).
The unique stage list for Champions of the Era has been considered a breath of fresh air by many, but some players also feel that a more traditional set of stages would be better for a competitive tournament. After many complaints about the stages, Era decided to create a new weekly tournament series, titled Temple Tantrum that utilized the "Backroom" stage list while still continuing to run CotE.
Champions of the Era was not initially region locked, but in early 2020 it became locked to North American players only. This allowed CotE events to count toward the ARMS North American Power Ranking without having European or Japanese players interfere with North American players' results. Prior to Champions of the Era's region lock, in order to provide an event for the European players interested in a CotE like event, Era created Champions of the Erapean Union which is region locked to European players only. This event is ran at a much more reasonable time for European players to play at compared to traditional Champions of the Era tournaments.
