Events Update!!!


Here it is, the events update for the next few weeks...

Sunday October 11th @ 3 p.m.:
Today we will be holding the first ever "Cycle Back" tournament. This tourney will be the same as a standard tournament, but will allow all cards from the last cycle (Lorowyn, Shadowmoore, Even/Morning tides). But you guys knew about this one already, right??? :-D

Thursday October 15th @ 7:30 p.m.:
Tonight is a Standard Tournament.

Sunday October 18th @ 3 p.m.:
Today we'll be holding a Zendikar block tournament, so Zendikar only on this one guys...;-)

Thursday October 22nd @ 7:30 p.m.
This Thursday will be a new tournament style. It's called "Tribes At War"! The idea is simple. Same standard format rules apply, however your deck has to have a "Tribal Theme". Meaning, that 75% of your creature cards (and yes you must have creature cards for this one) must be of the same type. For example, Vampires, Dragons, Angels, Demons, Goblins, Elves, Soldiers, Wizards, Merfolk, Artifact, or any other type. The only exception to this rule is that you can not have an "Ally" deck for this one. As allies would have a distinct advantage over all the other types. Good luck on this one guys, I hope it streches your deck building skills a bit...:-D

Sunday October 25th @ 3 p.m.

UPDATE:
THE VOTES HAVE BEEN COUNTED, AND WE WILL BE HOLDING A "2-BITS" TOURNAMENT THIS SUNDAY!!!!

This Sunday will come down to a vote from the Player Slayer community! You will have the opportunity to vote on this one at either the October 11th or October 15th event. No more voting after those two days, as folks need time to prepare their decks. We can either hold a team tournament this Sunday (The rules for which are here.) OR We can hold a "2-bits" tournament. The idea behind this tournament is the same standard rules apply except that you can only use common cards and uncommon cards to build your decks! Also, if you can't make either of the October 11th or 15th events to let us know your vote, you can email us at ...

Good luck and happy voting!

Thursday October 29th @ 7:30 p.m.:
This Thursday we will be holding a Standard format tournament.

Sunday November 1st @ 3 p.m.
This Sunday we will be holding a Standard format tournament.


Well that's it for this months schedule. I'm really looking forward to some of the new formats we haven't done yet...:-D Now, there has been some talk of us doing a Legacy tournament soon. However after some debate on the subject, the general concensus was that we should probably not do a legacy tourney until we have grown enough to offer some of the older cards to our community. The main reason for this decision is that we don't want to run a tournament where Slayers with vintage cards have a distinct advantage over those who don't. As there are some pretty nasty cards out there in the older sets. Some day we will hold an "Old School" tournament, but we're just not quite there yet...;-)
