My fellow Planeswalkers,

as the Hour of Defraudations came and that filthy dragon ditched us all making our Dark Intimations the foiled pinnacle of his lies, we decided to give you guys a little treat to help with the sorrow of this Cruel Reality so it is our pleasure to host the retribution act in which we summon all of you for the last tournament of the Magic Duels iOs community. As this is our last big scale organized tournament we really want it to be the best one of all. So, we have a few surprises for you and an actual prize (one that will be delivered to your house anywhere in the world—that´s right, Zen, even to you! :D). Although we want this event to be fun we know that it can only be great with each and every one of you. :D So, we urge you to pass from The Hour of Constipation and join us in The Hour of Transformation.

The way Wizards ended Duels was just so disrespectful to the community at large that there isn’t much more to say about it, we just think that the game deserves better, the community deserves a proper farewell to this game that has given us so much hours of fun. The invitation is simple enough and it is open to anyone who is willing to gather around for one final showdown with all this select -euphemism- group of people from all over the world that share this addiction that is Magic Duels. It is not required to have an NGA account if you like to participate and get your fix, just follow the instructions listed below and join us.

Awesome to have you joining, Yondar! :cool::thumbsup:

detailed info can be found here.

tldr:
stage one is swiss, best of 3, you pick one of your 3 submitted decks for each match-up
stage two is top8, best of 5, you pick one of your decks and have to stick with it until finals ;)

First Stage
4 Swiss rounds (more rounds can be added if we get more participants, but 4 its the minimum of matches that we can guarantee at this stage)

After that we generate keys according to the players performance, and players must choose just one deck to play the entire second stage.

You can always buy some KFC :ookay:

Looks exciting!

The 3 decks to submit are with or without sideboard?

Without. In this tournament it's the element of surprise - no one knows what deck they will be facing every round

Choosing 3 decks has proven to me a lot more difficult than I expected!
