Star Wars Unlimited: Draft Event

Sat. Nov. 16th (1:00 p.m.) -  $25 entry fee

 

Save the galaxy…..or dominate it…..with today’s round of STAR WARS: UNLIMITED constructed play!   This game is limited to 24 players.   It’s a draft event for our new favorite game, STAR WARS: UNLIMITED….here’s how this event will work:

 

• Each player receives three TWILIGHT OF THE REPUBLIC packs to start the draft

• You’ll open the pack carefully without peaking at any of the contents

• You’ll remove the Leader and the Base from your packs (the rest of the cards remain in the packs without being looked at)  - the bases are put in the middle of the table to share, and the Leaders are placed in front of you.

• You will then pick one of the three LEADERS to keep, and pass the rest to your right.   You will then get to pick from the two Leaders passed to you, and then you will get handed one more.   Leaders remain face up and visible on the table, meaning everyone in your draft pod will know what leaders everyone else has.

• After that, the drafting continues like a normal TCG draft.  Pick a card and pass the rest of the pack on, until all cards have been drafted.

• Players must build a minimum 30 card deck.

• You can include any cards from the game, but the normal rules applies when playing.   If you have a card that does not share an aspect with your leader or your base, it will cost 2 more for each aspect you’re missing.   However, there is no penalty for using these cards as a resource instead.

• For today’s game, you will be playing FOUR rounds.   Each round has a time limit of 30 minutes, and will be a BEST-OF-ONE game.

 

1st place      5 packs

3 – 1            4 packs

2 – 2            3 packs

1 – 3            2 packs

0 – 4            1 pack

 

 

 

Our top four players will also receive a booster pack of STAR WARS: ORGANIZED PLAY packs!  (This is a special three-card pack of promo cards exclusive to the Weekly Play kits – it may include 2 common cards and 1 rare holofoil card featuring alternate art or special Hyperspace variants.)

​

Lorcana: Azurite Sea PreRelease Event

Sun. Nov. 17th (1:00 p.m.) -  $35 entry fee

 

Ride the high seas in this brand new release of LORCANA!   As we celebrate Week 11 of our Fall League, we’re going to break open six packs of AZURITE SEA, build a deck, and battle it out!

 

Remember, for this game:

• Your deck can only be made of the cards you pull from your drafted packs

• Decks must be the minimum of 40 cards

• You may use all six colors if you wish

• There is no limit to how many copies of the same card you may have

 

PROMO CARDS:

The top ten players receive a Promo Card from the new season – there’s three different Promo Cards available for this season, and we still have a few left over from previous seasons!

 

PRIZE PACKS:

1st place – 6 Booster Packs of Lorcana: Azurite Sea

2nd place – 4 booster packs

3rd place – 3 booster packs

 

All other players receive one booster pack for each of the three rounds they won.   (If you didn’t have a very enchanated day and got totally swept, don’t worry – you’ll still get a pack to take home!)

 

 

For our League players, here’s how you can get your ten stickers for the week:

 

1 sticker for attending today’s event

2 stickers for each of the three rounds you won

1 sticker if you pull an Enchanted Card

1 sticker if you have three PIRATES in play at the same time

1 sticker if you get at least FIVE colors on the field at the same time

 

 

Good luck, Illumineers!

​

MAGIC: Winter Harvest - Standard Event

Fri. Nov. 22nd (7:00 p.m.) -  $15 entry fee

​

Tonight’s game is a STANDARD format game – it’s three rounds using your favorite deck constructed from all legal decks from DOMINARIA UNITED going forward.

 

Players will play three rounds to determine a winner – at the end of the event, the following prizes wil be passed out:

 

1st place                                               5 packs

2 rounds won:                                     3 packs

1  rounds won:                                    2 packs

0 rounds won:                                     1 pack

 

THE TOP EIGHT will also be getting the NIGHT’S WHISPER promo card!

 

After the game is over, all players who won at least one round will get a chance to conquer territories on our Multiverse map!    As we add prizes to the pool over the course of our league (full booster boxes, playing mats, commander sets, etc.) you’ll want to keep conquering as many of the twelve planes of the map as you can!   The player with the most conquered territories at the end of the season gets first choice of the prizes up for grabs!

 

Come back each week to defend your territories - they can be taken if you aren’t there to defend them.    Also remember - If you win 1st place, you’ll have to surrender one color from your winning deck for the next four events, so be ready to make adjustments if you happen to take the big prize for the night! 

​

 

WinterHarvestWeek1.jpg

We believe the heart and soul of MAGIC should always be some good one-on-one constructed games, so we're bringing back the STANDARD format to the store with a massive multi-week campaign!   Play just one game, or play every week --- there's prizes for everyone!

​

With this event, you struggle to control the entire multiverse!  (Well, twelve planes of it, anyway.)

Each plane will have five territories -- control all the territories, and you control the entire plane.

​

• Each individual event will be it's own game.   Three 50-minute rounds, best of 3.    You don't have to attend multiple games of this season to have fun - each game has its own individual prizes.

​

• There are 12 planes on the map, and each plane is made up of 5 territories.

• The format for this game is STANDARD - you are allowed a 15-card sideboard.

​

• 1st place wins 5 booster packs, and you may conquer an entire plane on the board.

• If you get a 2 - 1 record, you win 3 booster packs - and you conquer 3 territories.

• If you get a 1 - 2 record, you win 2 booster packs - and you conquer 1 territory.

• If you get a 0 - 3 record, you still take home one booster pack.

​

Your territories may be stolen by a player who ranked higher than you that evening.    If you do not attend a game, any territories you possess may be claimed by another player.

​

Important:  In the interest of preventing anyone from dominating the game with one killer deck, this rule will be in effect:  If you win 1st place in a game, then you must choose one of the colors from your winning deck - it will be banned from your use for the next four events!    (When you choose a color, your deck must have at least five non-land cards of that color to qualify.)

​

At the end of twelve weeks, the player with the most planes will get first choice of the prizes that get

accumilated over the season!   (If players have an equal number of planes to their name, then the leftover territories will be used to break the tie.)

​

• WINTER HARVEST games will be held three times a month  - check our calendar for dates.

• The format for this games is STANDARD

• The more players who attend, the more prizes will be added to the Treasure Chest

• At the end of the season, the player who has conquered the most Planes is named the champion, and they get first pick of the prizes in the Treasure Chest.    Second place gets next pick, third place gets third pick, and so on   

• Currently, our prize pool we've accumilated after one week is $20 - and the only prize up for grabs is a Foundation Box.    When the prize pool reaches $150, we will add another prize to the prize pool - so come on out and join the fun!
