Hey I subscribed lol and am a regular NGA but yes great and agree if this can foster a new group to NGA off the back of the Tourney! Thanks for advice on submission. I will try a run in constructed with each to gauge best possible deck. The meta is varied but there are also a lot using pro tour winning builds or appears so but trying out in constructed BO3 probably best! SD

Found you!

You can't directly edit your deck but you can send another submission sheet if you want to change the deck... we will only take in consideration the last one.
We already have 12 subscribed participants and only one of those is a regular NGA... hint that's me ;)

PS: thanks for dropping by discord Devil... we have our hands full and any help is welcomed :D

Wait.... I signed up last night so your statement tis confusion to me. About subscribed participants that is.
Edit: Nevermind. Didn't see the above post. I'm sure I'm in there with Squidder also. Oh, and you're welcome. I hang out in the Discord quite a bit actually. I'm usually over in New Player Questions screwing things up or in Lore and Spoilers since I've been reading it all this past year.

Ok so there is a lot of interest on the Tourney -58 confirmed subscriptions YAY!- and with that level of interest there are lots and lots of questions... so in order to save us from going insane we decided to make an FAQ so we don't have to repeat ourselves into oblivion.

Make sure you check the link to keep your selves informed on corner case ruling stuff.

ERRATA: on the changing decks Question SD asked, here is the official answer:

Q: Can I change my deck list after registration?
A: If you want to change your deck after using the Google form, please send an email to [email protected]. This option is limited! We are generous, but also take the liberty to reject changes if you send us too many versions. Please think carefully before you hit the send button.

Should I register hmm ...

Upsides: fun, potential prize, competitive experience
Downsides: stressful (!!), I've never streamed before and am not inclined to start, don't have all the cards I want

Stress is a big deal for me since every time I play one of these tournaments my heart starts pounding long before the games actually start. There was the time I played a Pokemon tournament and won the first two rounds, but by the third round I was just so stressed out I chose a trollish team and basically forfeited.

The stress is like the best part. Iron sharpening iron and all that.

After the direct challenge mode was released my mind was in NGA for something like that.Honestly i logged in today to ask in a post if there is a change for an old school (magic duels) tournament and there it is right at the top.I was expecting Kryder , he was doing a good job back there with steam showdown's , but i really trust dogs too :)

I think I've decided on my deck, but the sideboard...

There's still so many cards to unlock... It'll mostly depend on how many WCs I can unlock until the deadline.

Any guesses on what the meta will be like?

I imagine it will be lots of golgari mid-range, mono-red/mono-white/boros aggro, izzet/Jeskai/grixis control, izzet drakes and a few mono-blue tempo decks. Maybe some mono-green Stompy and selesnya tokens. Which is basically the standard meta atm.

Btw, the rules say 60 + 15 cards so fat stacks are forbidden?

Yeah that pretty much almost sums up all the decks that matter :). Some people will possibly play some cheesy homebrews but that wont be a large %. I think it's pretty much impossible to predict the exact meta though (the % of each decks).

I do believe we can record and publish instead of stream. I'm not set up to stream either but I use FRAPS to record and them pop it up on my YT channel. Don't see why you couldn't do that also.
