Well, up until this point, Thursdays have been traditionally for casual play and teaching new Player Slayers the basics of Magic. But starting this Thursday, we're gonna kick it up a notch!!! Each Thursday we are going to have fun just experimenting with different style's of tournaments in addition to casual play and training. This Thursday we will be holding a "Shards of Alara" tournament! This particular tournament will only allow cards from the Shards of Alara, Conflux, and Alara Reborn sets. It will still run the same way as our traditional tournaments, but only those cards will be allowed. No M10 and no Shadowmoore, Morning/Eventide, or Lorowyn this time...:-D This should provide a fun time with the more powerful cards in the Shards block that have a tendency to get shut down early on due to the speed of the other sets. We already have 6 committed players this week and there's always room for more! The tournament will start around 7 p.m. at the Sub Shack. We look forward to seeing you...
Also, some of the other ideas floating around out there for Thursdays are...
1) Team tournaments (You can find the rules for team tournaments under June's "Team Tournament Rules" Posting here on the blog). So start looking for a team mate now...;-)
2) 5 Colors at war and 5 Shards at war style game. This will be a fun style with winner take all prize support! You can find the rules for this format here.
3) Shadowmoore, Eventide, Morningtide, Lorowyn Block Tournaments. (So don't throw away all those old cards once they go out...;-)). Also M10 only and future blocks as well.
4) Draft tournaments. Everybody loves drafts!!! :-D
We'd also like to hear any ideas YOU may have about spicing Thursdays up a bit. If you have an idea for a fun tournament game, let us know! We're always looking for suggestions from our community.
