- EA, MAA, MEQ, & DCX (Over a hundred of these EA's or promo will be given out).

Side Event Prize Support
-
COMING SOON (This was just added two days ago so Prize Support is undecided) More than likely will be based around Hobby Shop Bucks.

HOUSE RULES -
1.) Blink - Earth 295, Clarice Ferguson will be banned for the event. I am not big on doing this but I refuse for the tournament to be tarnished by the presence of her. Exiles are welcome but 3-Drop Blink is not allowed. This obviously excludes the MEV draft as you can use her in draft.

2.) All generic cards are allowed as long as they do not reference another team. This includes unaffiliated character cards. As long as they do not reference another team they are legal for the event. (This is actually not a house rule but the standards for BYOT via UDE, but I wanted to clarify this since questions have been asked about it.)

If you have any questions please feel free to hit me up via PM,
Kj

Man, this sounds like a great event, I'm sorry that my three players won't be able to make it. Please post any changes and, of course, tourney reports and decklists!

Good luck, and thanks again for putting this together.

I hate that you guys can't come but May 30th ended up being the best date I could get for everyone.
And bkwrds. Thank you for pointing that out=). The location is now up with instructions on how to get there.

Lure as many as you can=). The more the merrier. I apologize if prize support is lacking a little bit but every bit of the prize and participation support (other than the Hobby Shop Bucks that will be given out) are coming from my collection of cards. So I hope it is ok...I mean I know no one can complain about 1st Place [grin].

KardKrazy, can't make it on the 30th, got a wedding I can't miss. Sorry bro. I'm still going to try to send as many people from my neck up to you.

Hope it's fun, try to get some tourney reports.

Sounds like a blast KK. Wish I could attend. Unfortunate events in my life have me stuck around DFW area for quite a while. Hope all goes well and look forward to the reports.

I understand you are reconsidering the date for the Showdown, since it seems some folks can't make the 30th. As I posted on the Groovy Gecko's forum (as Rufus T. Firefly), I can commit to bringing three players from Norfolk on the 23rd, but still cannot swing the 30th. Thanks for trying to fit as many in as possible and, as before, best of luck with the tourney!

Yes I am considering altering the date if I can find that 5 or more players can make it on the 23rd and not the 30th. Right now you have just catapulted that into a very strong possibility with stating that you can commit to 3 extra players on the 23rd.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the tournament has been moved to the 23rd of May. This is the final date. This will NOT change for any reason from here on out. If something comes up on my schedule (work) that makes it where I can't attend I will take the 2 hour drive up to Wilson between now and the tournament and give all the prize support to Gabe who will be judging the event so the tournament can proceed forward. However I do not see anything coming up that will stop me from attending the tourney.
later,
Kj

I am ready for you all. I will take you all on=). lol...Of course I am going into this event playing one of three decks and I will let them be known now:

1.) Arkham Insanity
2.) Shadowpact
3.) Morlocks

By the way I want it known that if I Top 8 in this event (which probably won't happen since I am not bringing a Tier 1 deck on purpose) I will NOT be accepting any of my prizes (this goes for participation also). If I end up, for example, coming in at 7th Place I will be passing my prizes to the 8th Place person. If I finish 8th and the person who came in 9th is still there they will get the 8th place prizes. If 9th place is not there then 7th place will get the prizes on top of their own 7th place prizes.
later,
Kj
