If you think you can beat all of NGA (xbox), become the King of the Hill. Hold your title and become this season's overlord!

Just wanted to start a different sort of competitive magic on here. The concept is simple. Sign up to battle the current champ. Duel. Winner stays. Casual setup, Competitive games.

Play best of 3 games using one deck per match. Both players stream on twitch or youtube it, if possible. No sideboards. As soon as a match is over, another may begin immediately or later. King can switch decks from match to match. After 3 days without playing, power will revert back to the previous king if no new matches are scheduled (or attempt thereof). In such an event, the king will go in the box as challenger when they are ready (#1).

Sign up on here to secure your spot as a challenger (in a post below).Challenge the current king in the order of sign up. Current challenger has 24 hours to contact king for match time or may be skipped. If you lose a match, you only need to wait for one more match to happen before challenging again. Challenge with any deck you want. If you are skipped, just post to reclaim your spot when ready.

I will update this OP with king status, stats, etc... as often as possible. However, you can check the sign up order and keep playing matches as often as you can. Make sure to post match results on here and links to twitch or youtube videos, if applicable.

Disclaimer: If anything unusual (disconnects, bugs, etc...)comes up please use Kryder's tournament rules (fight club) to guide you. https://www.reddit.com/r/magicduels/com ... b_round_2/

One week before the new set comes out, the top 3 kings based on total wins as King and challenging the hill will be counted (Tiebreaker: 1st. to a given point total). 2nd and 3rd will play. Winner will earn the right to play the 1 seed for the title of season Overlord, as well as starting the next season as king. Those 2 matches will be 5 games instead of 3, using a different deck each game. Any decks may be used.
Prize support will be:
$* xbox code for ANK Overlord (1st. Place)
$* xbox code for runner up
Lulz for 3rd. place

*=to be decided

Climb the hill and hoist your banner! Defend the hill and grow your legend. Will anyone win 5 in a row? 10?

Zzmorg is now our first entrant AND our first banning (on xbox)! Two major milestones in the first 5 min. I'm so proud.

Steamers should copy the thread and do something similar, me thinks.

Edit: The king of steam exists. The rumors are true

No cross platform play sucks...
I doubt stainless could pull it off anyway, at least without breaking something else and causing a billion new bugs... Oh well...
All Hall King divinevert!
Pro tip: challenge him with a spirit deck (after watching that 1st game against Cgb... I bet he'd enjoy that.) :)

Steam thread added. If enough people complain about it I'll add an apple king too.

Copying this here for clarity:

where exacly do I sign up :confused:
sounds like a lot of fun
good concept :)


Here. Just challenge the king in your post, determine whether anyone is up before you by checking the OP and glancing through previous posts in the thread, and since you're up, pm the current king to set up a time to play.

It's not your fault that everyone is terrified of me.

Me and this pretender are scheduling currently. Should play in the next day or two, crying baby permitting.

I move for a vote of non-confidence in the current King.

In other words, I'm your huckleberry.

Let me know when I can arrange to play the current king. I can play any night between 8 and 11pm.

...except this weekend, big poker tournament!

Speaking of which, how are you liking Prominence Poker (FREE for anyone that has an Xbox One) Vert? It sounds like fun, I downloaded it. Man, RE4 is out tomorrow I think. So many games....

Pure, thanks for setting this up, this sounds really fun! So if I'm NOT the king, can I use a different deck for each match or is that only the King that can do that? It'll be fun to do on Twitch too.

I like Prominence Poker. It's a good time-killer before bed. It's hardly what I would call "competitive poker" since, ya know, play money, but most people I've played with take it fairly seriously, which is a nice change of pace.

I'm interested to see if they start skewing it towards sorta-real-money with Ranked games. Like you could buy actual useful things with in-game coins or something.

From match to match anyone can change decks. From game to game no one can alter or switch decks, except the Overlord (insert 80's electric guitar riff) Series at the end of the season.

ah ok so the deck i bring to the best-of-three has to be the same deck for that series, that's right?

So Vert has two Montrealers to face back-to-back! I'll play the winner of Divine vs Unbeatable then? Lemme know when I'm up :)

Vert, that sounds like a ton of fun. I should get into it. Once I hit rank 40 (which is soon, I'm over 30 now), I'll scale back my Magic playing and will hopefully take on Prominence Poker next, that would be fun. I got a 500k 3-day event this weekend, should be a blast. There are 6 separate day 1 heats to make day 2. Should be wild.
