Temple Tantrum
Temple Tantrum was an online biweekly ARMS tournament series organized and created by Era. The series began in August of 2019 and ran events until late May 2021 when Era began running Central Smackdown again in its place.[1]
Format
Similar to most weekly/biweekly events, Temple Tantrum ran double elimination brackets, regardless of entrant count. Players utilized Era's Discord server to communicate with their opponents as the brackets were ran on Challonge, a site that lacks player-to-player chat functions.
Temple Tantrum utilized the "Backroom" stage list which consists of the stages that are traditionally considered legal for competitive play. These stages include Sparring Ring, Mausoleum, DNA Lab, Buster Beach, Temple Grounds, Scrapyard, and Via Dolce. The series was made to specifically use this stage list due to complaints of the stage list in one of Era's other tournament series, Champions of the Era.
Initially, Temple Tantrum was not region locked meaning that any player from any region was permitted to join. However, in early 2020, the series became region locked to North American players only. This allowed the event to be counted toward the North American Online ARMS Power Ranking without having other regions' players interfere with North American players' results. Temple Tantrum was a weekly event until early 2021 when it was made to be biweekly, alternating weeks with Roll the Dice.
