Open Dueling:

Players purchase a random Pre-constructed deck from the Shards of Alara set ($15.00) and are given an Open Dueling card. Players play one another in a designated area, filling out one another's game cards after each match. Once a player has played 5 matches (win or lose), they receive a promo foil and a single booster pack of Shards. They may continue playing in the Open Dueling area for as long as the site remains open.

Open Dueling will be available starting at 10:30 am on both Saturday and Sunday.

Notes: Players may only enroll in this format ONCE each day. Players are discouraged from open dueling while playing in another event. Being unable to play out open duel matches due to a conflict with another tournament is to be avoided.

Draft tournaments will not be available at this event.
