Bracket 3 EDH Pop Off

What’s poppin?!

Welcome to our Bracket 3 EDH Tournament!

You’ve all heard of the cEDH fun—so we thought… why not Bracket 3 EDH?!

After some successful local FNM trial runs, we decided to launch this event to the public. With the exception of certain open Saturdays, we’ll be hosting these events whenever possible, so keep an eye out for future announcements!

Alright, on to the event details!

RULES:

1. ALL players must adhere to the current EDH ban list. No exceptions.

2. ALL players must adhere to the current Bracket 3 stipulations and restrictions, including (but not limited to) the Game Changers list. More information on the rules provided by WotC can be found via the links below:

3. The tournament will follow standard EDH rules with 80-minute rounds. Once time is called, the current player has 10 additional minutes to win the game. If no player wins within those 10 minutes or by the end of the current turn, the game results in a draw.

Point System:

Win / Bye = 5 points

Draw = 1 point

Loss = 0 points

4. Players must submit their decklists via the registration page, preferably through Moxfield, or another decklist website of your choice.

5. This event does not allow proxies.

6. You cannot win the game via combo (infinite or otherwise) before turn 7. “Natural” wins via combat, commander damage, or explosive starts are allowed.

PRIZE SUPPORT:

Prize support is provided as store credit added to your account, based on total event turnout. Payouts typically go to the top 4, 8, or 10 players, depending on attendance.

REMINDERS:

1. While this is a tournament, we still want—and encourage—everyone to have fun!

2. We do not have an “official” judge on-site; however, our associate Dorien will be running the event and is capable of answering any questions or concerns you may have.

Thank you for taking the time to read over our rules and guidelines. We look forward to seeing what Bracket 3 decks you bring to the table!
