SWU Store Showdown

Event Information

Doors will open at 10:00 AM, with a player's meeting scheduled for 10:45 AM and Round 1 starting at 11:00 AM. This tournament will have random deck checks throughout the event, as well as deck checks before the Top 8 cut to ensure no marked cards or sleeves are being used and that decks are correct and valid.

Entry is $35. Make sure to register online or call the store to get registered for the event. Payment will be taken day of, during the 10:00-10:45 AM registration window. Anyone unable to register can be put on a wait-list by calling the store. Wait-list players will be added to the event in the order they are on the list.

The event will be run using Swiss pairings provided by Command Tower. Rounds will have a time limit of 55 minutes. After this time limit, the players will finish their current Action Phase, and play an one additional Action Phase. If the players are currently in their Regroup Phase when time is called, they will be allowed to play one additional Action Phase. After the additional phases are played, if no winner has been determined, the winner of the first game will win the match, or both players will receive a loss if they are playing their third game. Winning players will be awarded 3 points. Top 8 finals will be untimed. No match, either in Swiss Pairings or Top 8, may end in a draw.

Rules

We will not tolerate or condone any bullying, harassment, or other disrespectful behavior towards other players, patrons or staff.

We ask that each player plays quickly, but carefully. Intentionally slow playing to generate an advantage will be penalized at the discretion of the judge.

In the event that the Top 8 cut cannot be easily identified - if there are multiple players with the same record as the lowest ranked member of Top 8 - an additional single elimination round may be used to clearly determine those who will participate in the finals matches. If there are too many players with the same record for the available spots in Top 8, additional players with a better record will also have to participate in this final additional round.

1st - Star Wars Unlimited Spark of the Rebellion Box 2nd - $200 3rd-4th- $125 5th-8th - $75
