In the Events Space
2 x 120 minute rounds played in single elimination style.
Winners of the first round will move to a top 4 pod for finals.
Each round will have a hard cap of 2 hours. After which time if a winner cannot be decided, the win will be awarded to the player in seat 1.
We understand that these rule changes may not be ideal for some but these measures have been put in place for logistical reasons and for the consideration of event staff.
16 players
This is a strict cap as the single elimination format cannot accomadate byes or additional players.
Excluding operational costs ($1 per person which should total to ~$16), all of ticketing sales will be contributing to the prize pool.
The final prize pool will depend on total player numbers.
Prizing will be awarded to those who make top cut and will be awarded as store credit for Luna Cards.
Luna Cards will bring binders on the day to facilitate use of store credit.
In addition to store credit players Luna Cards has added some extra bonuses to look forward to:
1st place: Dr Who Precon Top table: Promo pack + pin Promo pack for entry
3 random pins to give-away
As this is a smaller scale event, we are trialling this event without a judge. This is mainly in the interest of keeping costs down and to not take too much from the prize pool. That being said, MCL staff and Luna Cards store staff will be happy to assist with any judge calls should they be required.
This event will be play-test friendly.
You will need to use "test cards" that are printed in colour and utilize recognizable art. These printouts can be slipped in front of another card however the printout must not be seen from the top of the sleeve.
If you are using a mixed deck, that features real cards and print outs slipped in front of other cards we will require the real cards be double sleeves so that your deck can have a consistent thickness.
If you are using high quality play-test cards printed on card stock, this must be distinguishable from a real magic card such that it cannot be considered as a counterfeit. The MCL does not condone counterfeits in anyway.
CEDH is a format where the game state can be quite complicated (especially with it being a 4 player format). Card recognisability can play a significant role in ensuring players and judges can have a clear understanding of the game's current board state.
In addition to requiring proxies that use official magic art, we require that any altered cards or cards with alter sleeves keep the recognisability of the original art work in tact.
Some general guidelines to follow when it comes to alters:
With altered cards there can be a lot of gray area as the possibilities are practically endless. If you are unsure about whether your altered card will be acceptable, we recommend that you either bring a spare copy of the card with the official magic art (proxy or real), and/or you seek head judge approval prior to the start of the tournament.
