General information:

 

Competitive & Casual Flights:

 

Two types of sealed deck tournaments are available for play.  In the competitive flight, there will be a prescribed number of Swiss rounds followed by a top 8 booster draft final.  Casual flights will have 4 rounds regardless of size.  Both formats will award prizes for a record of X-2 or better.  Afternoon flights will use the casual format. 

 

Prizes will vary slightly depending on tournament size & final standings.  A portion of prize packs paid to a flight winner may be held until the set release on the following Friday when they will be available for pickup or mailed to the recipient.

 

Our Final Regional Prerelease:

 

After over 15 years of large prerelease events, Wizards of the Coast is calling it quits on prereleases organized by Premier Tournament Organizers.  While prereleases will still be very much a part of Magic's future, store-level events will be the standard by which these events are enjoyed.  Come enjoy one final Regional Prerelease with us.  It promises to be a big one! 

 

PLUS ALL YOUR USUAL FAVES:

 

2-Headed Giant:  As usual, you'll be able to find a friend and sling cards in tandem starting at 3:00.
