HOLON PHANTOMS PRE-RELEASE
This will start at the end of the swiss rounds. It will be like M45's (yup duplication is the sincerest form of flattery...LOL). Once we have 16 people we will start a Pre-Release flight. There will be no deck sheets to fill out. Each player will receive 6 booster packs to build a 40 card deck including basic energies (provided) in 30 minutes. It is $20 per person and you will only be able to play in one of these. Each player will receive 2 booster packs at the end of swiss rounds when they turn in their basic energies. There is no limit for the other side events. Also there will be a staff/finalists Pre-Release after single elimination is finished (FREE...plus...). Based on last year we should be starting the Pre-Release between 5-6pm.
Side Events

Booster Draft - $15 (everyone gets 5 random booster packs to build a 40 card deck including basic energies which will be provided on site)
