EVE University Fight Club (UFC) is a solo PvP event primarily run at the Main Community campus in Stacmon.

The what

What is Fight Club? We take tech 1 frigates and mash them against each other in 1v1, Unista vs. Unista sanctioned duels for the enrichment and blood-sating of our members. Fight Club is a long-standing traditional event in EVE University that finds its roots in EVE University history. At one time, when EVE Uni was based in Aldrat, the Libold system was dedicated as a frigate free-for-all system for Unistas. Contemporary Uni Fight Club descends from that tradition.

The rules

  • All fights are 1v1 in empire frigates (Amarr, Caldari, Gallente, Minmatar). You may bring your own dueling fit, but you are quite welcome to use free UFC-fitted frigates on contract in Stacmon.
  • Fights are to 25% of structure, but a pilot may concede the fight at any time. Fights may be to the death of the ship by prior agreement.
  • No podding!
  • If you feel you are losing, try to warp off! If someone succeeds in escaping, the duel is a draw.
  • Since people are allowed to escape, bring tackle mods if you want to kill anything!
  • Fights will randomly start at 20km or 0km - nobody knows the starting range until you get there!

This is intended to be a live-fire exercise that is as realistic as possible. Learn what it takes to PvP like a low-sec hero!

What can I bring?

  • Only T1 racial frigates allowed
  • Only T1 modules allowed - Meta variants (0 through 4) are allowed and encouraged, but nothing T2, faction, deadspace, etc.
  • Only T1 ammo/charges - This includes cap boosters and drones!
  • If you bring drugs, make sure you bring some for the whole class. But seriously, no drugs.

We're keeping things cheap to encourage participation, and evenly matched because the more even-handed the ships, the more your decisions and piloting matter, and the more you learn!

Stacmon Bookmarks

EVE Uni Fight Club uses a collection of bookmarks in Stacmon that are stored in the Stacmon - 08 Fight Club corp bookmarks folder.

  • Participants and Spectators warp to Fight Club - Bleacher Seats at the beginning of the event.
  • There are four arenas, each named after a Unista who ran Fight Club in the past.
  • At the beginning of each round, the two participants align to the center bookmark of the arena they have been told to fight in, for example Kopobo Fight Club - Center bookmark. After the host counts down the fight (5, 4, 3, 2, 1...FIGHT), each participant must warp to either Fight Club - Red or Fight Club - Blue and engage upon exiting warp.

SRP

Fight Club T1 frigate losses are fully reimbursable through the uni's Ship Replacement Program. You can use this form[1] to apply for SRP. Specifics are listed here.

Want to run FC?

  • Get in touch with a campus manager or coordinator and offer to run this week's Fight Club.
  • Pick a time that sees a lot of activity, like 19:00 EVE time on a Friday for the EUTZ crowd or 01:00 EVE time on a Saturday for the USTZ crowd.
  • Some event hosts also have a bowhead on an OOC alt stocked with T1 frigate fits to give out to participants who want them.
  • The Fleet Support Program is a great way to help you get fitted ships on contract. They also have a nice form[2].
