Borderlands 2: Midget Polo

Overview: With the destruction of the Badassasaurus Mr. Torgue has been searching for a new
badass use of his grand arena. This sparked the creation of an intense new sport that utilizes
the local inhabitants and of course, EXPLOSIONS!!!!! Mr.Torgue and Tiny Tina will be the
sportscasters for this new Macho-Badass sport of Awesomeness.
Players will compete in Midget Polo in the spacious ,and highly dangerous, Torgue arena as
they attempt to score the most points to win. The players will score points by knocking midgets
into the opposing teams goal. To accomplish this, the player will have to utilize explosive
weapons and barrels to blow the midget around the arena. The opposing players will not sit idly
by as you attempt to score. The players will be able to fire at one another and kill them before
they have a chance to score. The first team to reach 5 points is the winner.

Teams
Each team will consist of 4 players.
Players will be able to play with any combination of human or computer
controlled allies or enemies.
Character level will not prevent players from participating with friends of differing
levels.
Players
Players will not be able to use any of their own weapons and equipment during
the match. This includes their special abilities or effects from their items
The players health will be replaced with the health of the skag that they are
riding. Once this health depletes, the player will be forced to respawn in the spawn area.
Respawning will not cost money during this event.
The control scheme for players will be changed to resemble vehicle controls and
camera view. This will allow for players to remain mobile while still attacking enemy
players.
The skags will jump if the player presses the A button
Players will not be allowed to dismount their skag during the match.
Weapons
Players will be given a short time within the spawning zone to select their loadout
from a few preselected Torgue weapons. The players will be able to select up to two
weapons and a grenade mod. Each will have its own usefulness during the match. For
the purposes of this match, the physics and weapon knockback will be modified to allow
for more responsive play.

same amount of HP(regardless of level) and will not have any of their special abilities

The control scheme for moving will be similar to that of the vehicles.
Winning multiple matches or achieving certain goals will allow players to begin
with different skins for their skag(ex. Corrosive, Flaming or Lightning skags)

The Arena
The arena will be symmetrical, with teams on opposite sides.
A midget will be placed in the middle of the arena atop a stack of explosive
containers at the start of the match.
After a goal is scored, a midget will be ejected from the floor in the middle of the
map.
Scoring a goal will cause a massive explosion that kills anyone within range of
the zone.
The arena will be littered with explosive barrels, traps and enemies to make the
game more dangerous. These hazards can be used to help score goals as well as
defeat the opposing team. Barrels and neutral enemies will be spawned in periodically
to keep the match interesting.
The goal will be a small soccer style goal placed on either side that will serve as
the point scoring zone. The midget must be knocked into this goal in order to score a
point.

The match will be limited to 15 minutes. The game will move to sudden death if
the score limit has not been reached.
The losing team will be returned to their respective games and/or the
