Competitive LED fighting is already a flourishing sport. The Saber Legion, Lightspeed, and I forget the name of the European league, but it already exists.

[@ryanscanlon2151]

They need to build some kind of set to fight on, otherwise it's gonna be just like watching fencing or kendo. Nothing against either of this sports but light sabers need a more dynamic environment to really shine. Nothing too crazy, maybe something like those competitive tag arenas. Something beside wide open space, give people options and an environment to battle in and be creative. Imagine having an honest to god jump down from on top of a wall "hello there" moment in a tournament match

[@MrAggieman21]

You should charge $15 an entry for spectators, and make it like a badass celebration with different kinds of activities/food or discussions throughout the day, I've always wanted to go to a star wars celebration but could never afford it because of the crazy cost of going to them and me not wanting to support Disney star wars

Hold the tourney in Anaheim during Disneyland's Star Wars Nights. April until May 4th. There are many hotel ballrooms where you can have the event or have it at the convention center. Celebration was held there in 2022. The Anahiem tourist office might help you. Plus, there is a lot to do in Southern California. Beautiful beaches, Los Angeles, Malibu, other theme parks, San Deigo, you can even go down to Mexico. So Cal is your destination. Plus, a lot of Star Wars celebrities live in Los Angeles. And fighters from Latin America, Asia, and Australia might be more motivated to attend if it's a little closer for them.

To be honest you have it switched up.. You should be giving the performance part of the event more money. The "duels" is just going to be a complete mess. Just people whacking each other, no technique, no entertainment. While it sounds good on paper, in reality it isn't going to be as cool as you think it will be. You'll be expecting some epic duels when all you're going to get is dudes just wildly swinging at eachother. Who's going to twirl and spin around when the goal is to hit your opponent? All that stuff will go out the window. I'm more interested in seeing peoples saber routines and seeing what kind of creativity they bring to it. The "duels" will just be a headache and a mess, mark my words.

[@josephjones7020]

Only one suggestion, rules-wise: Confirmation Defense. If you land a point/killing strike, you must not receive a counter point/killing strike for (maybe 3 seconds) afterward, otherwise the point/killing strike is nullified. This prevents people from using kamakaze assaults to land a hit, regardless of whether they will be hit back right away. I see this alot in dueling, and it irks me. If you land a hit on an opponents torso, and they land a hit on your chest immediately after, then how did you win? You both would die. A suicide attack is not a mark of skill. Only landing the hit, and then preventing the opponent (who would be desperate to hit back, no longer having anything to lose) from hitting you back immediately afterwards, is a true mark of skill.

Even look at the movies. Episodes 1, 2, 3, and 6 shows this in canon. What are you going to do if the few martial art nerds show up? Those fights won’t be fun to watch. The better someone is at weapon fighting, the less happens (look at the twin suns episode but with no backstory). I want this to work out for you. I just always try to plan for the “what if”.

[@GeekCultureWars]

Time to start running those simulations

[@random-unbreaded-commentor]

Few suggestions as someone whos been around a few tournaments before: 1) You're (more than likely) going to want to have separate divisions. Usually we have them set up by gender/ age/ rank. Guess rank isn't exactly applicable, but the other 2 might. 2) dress code/ gear requirements. Uniforms are usually at school discretion at open tournaments; but sparring gear isnt. If youre using sabers (swords) youd want a minimum amount of safety gear at a cup, mouth piece, kendo/ fencing/ hema rated helmets/ gloves. (As a kali person trust me, a LIGHT knuckle rack will ruin your day). 2.1) alot of folks dont wear shoes during their forms/ aren't allowed to during sparring (footgear/ shinguards, yes; but shoes are generally off limits). You'll want to consider the mats/ what flooring you'll be hosting the event on. 3) proper communication and announcement equipment. 2 years ago the kaisen tournament was an absolute mess bc the speaker system was messed up, none of the events went on time, and no one was communicating with each other. Usually in sparring tournament you have 3 judges on each ring. 2 sides and a center. Depending on the turn out/ division you may need quite a bit of help/ it may be a multi day event. 4) if you do a kids division and like obviously, they wouldn't survive the 50k prize fighting, look into those cheap ass 1st/2nd/3rd place trophies. Theyre cheap but kids love them. 5) location. Consider doing a preregistration thing before the tournament to get an idea of the number of participants/ to help you chose a venue. Think of parking. Trust me, it sets an attitude for the whole day. (Also food vendors are a huge lifesaver for long days). 6) (this is more a bonus suggestion) SWAG!!!! Most tournaments do a small oval shaped iron on patch as a commenorative for the participants of the tournament win or lose. Bonus bonus suggestion: maybe consider making a shorter blade? (For the people in the kata division). If there were shotosabers available id be there with bells on with 2 or 3 forms to choose from (side note; 60 seconds is super short for alot of forms. If i RUSH through some of my older forms i think i can do 3 of them in approx 1 min. The other 12+ i can think of all stray into the 2-3 range on a rushed form. Ill come back to edit this if i can think of any more suggestions. If you want a solid template, go look up the kaisen tournament rules. The city of destiny classic would be a good starting point. Cheers! May the force be with you and all that.

[@540VarialHunter]

Get Ray Park to be a judge! Also a question for the saber site: Are you gonna do custom builds or be open to make sabers from fan designs? 🤔 Like if I'd send a design, couple drawings, would you consider turning it into a real saber? Got a few from WAAAY back in technical secondary school, like more than 12 years ago, I whipped up during or after classes. There are probably thousands of guys like me tho. Could make a contest on and do polls to determine 10 or 20 best and most viable designs. Also I think I'll Superchat that during some of your streams, cause there's no guarantee you'll see this comment. Anyways, STOKED for the saber choreography contest by Theory!

You should add an event where teams of two show off their own choreographed duels. I guarantee it’d be the most popular event and with Nick Gillard as a judge? I mean cmon! It’d also probably be the most entertaining event, as fencing can be interesting but it’s definitely not as intricate.

[@RobbSoul]

Dude, seriously, thank you for thinking about the fans this is going to be an awesome event. I hope to attend and participate myself. I am extra excited because i just got my first practice saber, it was gifted to me by my friend.

[@moomoo1068_]

Maybe you should put this money toward Vader episode 2 bro. We are never getting that film, whenever it is brought up his eyes and body convey deceit.

[@Witless-Pawn]

Money where?

[@GRocC04]

You should do some kind of “junior tournament.” It’d be cool for people 14 and below or something to be able to have a competition without going against people fifteen years older than them you know?

I'm happy for you on your growth STW! Keep doing what you love man!👊🏾

Dude just created a Star Wars version of Squid Game. Just kidding... sounds fun.

That's awesome, congrats on all your success. Very well deserved for all the years of hard work and hustle you need to have such a popular channel.

[@RegIV]

The fact that you put so much of the money you make back into your work and the community you've built is beyond admirable, and you do so much to keep the SW community alive and well. Need more people like you in the world 💯

Get Hayden and Ewan on the panel! 😄

[@sithlord12]

They work for Disney

[@colpolryan]

Hayden Christiansen should be a judge !! This awesome though dude.

[@sithlord12]

Hayden's under contract with Disney

[@do-not-subscribe]

Hayden doesn't have time for a childish competition, friend

[@MrEffectfilms]

This could be a great substitute for Celebration for those who can't afford that. It'd be great if this tournament had discussions, panels, refreshments, and was just a fun way for fans to get together and celebrate their love of Star Wars.

[@bifftannen1598]

Thomas Ian Griffith and/or Sean Kanan- I know it's a different franchise, but Thomas used a sword at the end of the Season 5 & I know you're tight with Sean & it'd be badass to have 1 or both of them.

What's up, Theory?! You should ask Michelle C. Smith to be a judge. She is a professional stunt woman, fight coordinator, and a movement specialist. She is pretty amazing! Keep up the great work!

@@sithlord12Exactly. Disney doesn't like his criticism, thusly they wouldn't want their contracted actors to work with him. It blows my mind that people think this would have the slightest chance of happening. Even if Hayden wanted to.

[@CHR1ST1AN1215]

I think an actual duel is amazing but agree with others there should be a 3rd division of duels that are choreographed. That would also be incredible to watch

[@thefanboy2008]

I always knew that true and honest fans such as yourself would make it! Dude, no joke, I still remember watching your earliest stuff, and now I’m seeing you run an actual LIGHTSABER TOURNAMENT and sell lightsabers! That’s awesome! And dude, seriously congrats! You deserve all of this! This is awesome!
