Digital Decklists

You can register a unique deck for each session. Your deck must be submitted no later than 6:00pm the evening of the session.

Google Sheets

We will be using Google Sheets to submit decklists. As such, you must have an active Google account (free) to edit and submit this document.

Paper decklists will not be accepted.

Submitting electronically will reduce deck registration errors and increase the speed at which we can get decklists posted online!

Fellowship Gamer Award

At the end of the Round Robin tournament, everyone will place a private vote for the player who demonstrated tremendous sportsmanship throughout the four weeks. This could be someone who took losses extremely well, won with class, gave insightful tips on how to play a matchup or maybe lent cards to someone else in need.

The player who wins this award receives a booster box of Battle for Zendikar!

Additional prizes will be awarded for Honorable Mentions!

Tie-breakers

To determine the Top 4 cleanly, the following tie-breakers will be used:

  • Head-to-Head matchup
  • Most game wins (throughout tournament)
  • Fewest game losses (throughout tournament)
  • Fellowship Gamer votes

If no winner can be determined (unlikely!), a playoff match will ensue.

Top 4 Matches

The Top 4 will consist of best of three games. You will have access to your opponents' decklist.
