Global Ninja Crusaders is a Vitosian sports entertainment competition. It features many competitors from different countries attempting to complete series of obstacle courses of increasing difficulty in various cities across Vitosium, in hopes of advancing to the national finals and becoming the season's "Global Ninja Crusader".


Format

200 potentials will begin their journey through the Qualifier Round where only 75 people will make it through. Those 75 contestants must survive many "stages" until the final stage where the winner will be decided. Each stage will have many obstacles that the contestants have to survive in order to strengthen their chances of making it to the next stage. Should one fail at an obstacle, they can not re-do the course and must await the results to see if they pass onto the next stage. Stages 3, 4 and 5 will see those who fail to complete the course be automatically eliminated.
