TOURNAMENT STRUCTURE
Swiss Rounds (Match Play, best 2 of 3 games, 50 minutes plus 3 turns for Masters, Single Game 30 minutes plus 3 turns for Juniors and Seniors) with top cut of 8 maximum. The number of rounds will be based on number of players in the event. There will be a limited lunch break after the 2nd round. Players are reminded that everyone can help to ensure the event runs smoothly and finishes in a timely manner. Match records will be posted after each round, and available for 5 minutes. Please check your match records to be sure they are correct. Once pairings are posted, players will have 10 minutes to be seated at their table and set up, ready to play.

ENTRY FEE

PRIZES
Full prize structure to come, but prizes will include booster packs for top finishers and Championship Points (based on attendance). Additionally, there will be a promo card for everyone who attends (while supplies last) and Pokemon-themed door prizes.

All players whose decklists are completed and printed from a computer will be entered into a special door prize drawing for Japanese sleeves from the Pokemon Center store.

Just a quick update. We have been given permission to run Juniors and Seniors as single game (30 minutes +3 turns) for Swiss, to prevent the day from getting too incredibly long for younger players. Masters will still be Match Play (best 2 of 3 games, 50 minutes +3 turns.)
 
Quick note for those with any questions - this is a one-day only States event. All games will be finished on Saturday.

Everyone must be registered and check in before proceeding to the game play area. So if you like to tweak your deck list or get in a practice game before the tournament starts, you don't want to be stuck in the registration line!
