- You can change your decks as much as you like during the group round.

(In the event that this was against the person they're tied with it will go to 2nd to the last game for each player)
Unfinished Matches
To move the tournament quickly into the elimination round, unfinished matches without any communication with me will result in zero wins, zero game points. To communicate with me please open a group message here on cardgamedb with me, yourself and the other player no later than Sunday August 2nd stating your availability to play with your opponent. If the match is unable to happen I will use the communication log to try to determine a fair result.
Any player who has not finishes reported any games 3 weeks into the tournament (July 20th) will be dropped unless they communicate with me.
Elimination Round
Given the amount of participants and the size of the groups, this tournament will have a 15-player single elimination round with the top 3 players per group being seeded! Since we have 5 groups this time, the first seeds in each group will be ranked by comparing their records using the above tie-breaker system. The top ranked 1st seed will become player "1A" and will have a first round bye. That player's group will be group "A", the 2nd ranked 1st seed will become player "1B" etc for purposes of filling out the bracket.
Since the groups are not equal sizes wins and game points will be converted to per game for all first seeds.
-
- Qualifying players must lock-in what decks they’ll play for the duration of the tournament by August 11th 11:59pm. Deck lists will be submitted to a moderator (TBD) who will post all lists on cardgamedb.
- Seeding will be based on player rankings after the Group Round. Please see the image of the bracket for details of the match-ups.
- Players have 1 week to finish their match.
- Each match will be a best of 5. First player to 3 wins advances.
- During the first round where there is a clear higher seed, that player may decide what deck to play first. Later rounds decide by coin flip. During the 2nd round player 1A may still decide what deck to play first since they had a first round bye.
- Players will alternate playing LS/DS the first 4 games.
- Keep track of your game points!
- Should a 5th game be needed to settle the match, the player with more game points earned in the match may decide which deck to play. If there is a tie flip a coin.
Prizes!
