Ok fellows the second season of the NGA league is about to be done and I think we would all appreciate a new format, so I bring to you the first Historic League!!
I think we can play 2 games per week and not the 3 games the last league had coz that is a bit too much commitment. I could go down to 1 if you guys feel like it.
At this moment I would like to see if there is interest in order to keep this things going.
Welcome back to the NGA league a place to put your skills to the test of organized play.
Format HISTORIC 60 cards main deck, 15 cards sideboard Best-of-three Open deck list.
First Stage: Robin round in 4 player pools, minimum 8 players One deck for the stage
Second stage: Robin round in 4 player pools, minimum 8 players One deck for the stage
Semis Single elimination B03. One deck for the stage
Timeline Player registrations are open from NOW
Then is 2 matches a week till the end of it. Match Reports By Toornament, it's pretty simple.
Follow the official League Rules. As a participant please make sure you read the rules carefully before you register for the League. By registering you will declare that you agree with these rules. In case you have questions feel free to contact the organization team via email.
Rules
Follow all instructions and timelines within. Be polite to both your opponent and yourself. Contact your opponent promptly after league pairings go up and schedule your games. If you encounter problems with your opponent, contacting them, a game error, or a rules dispute, contact the organization team. If you are unable to play for any reason or wish to drop out, contact organization team. When in doubt, contact organization team. All matches during Robin rounds are best of 3. Recording and/or streaming your matches is not a requirement for the Robin rounds, though it is highly encouraged. After all rounds are completed top players will be passed to the next round, scores will take win rate in consideration. Finalists will play a Best of 3 match. Illegal Cards The penalty for playing an illegal card is League expulsion. If any illegal actions are reported at any time penalties will still be enforced, but will not change previous results.
Recording/Streaming
Streaming and/or recording games are not required, though it is highly recommended in case there is need of arbitration. Without a video to watch we cannot arbitrate the match, so if there are any discrepancies you will have to replay the games in question. Besides peers will want to critique your gameplay. If you do stream your match via Twitch.tv, or YouTube, you are forbidden to interact during the match with your chat, if we feel there is a perception of coaching and/or cheating, the player will be feed to the dogs. Remember, this is a free, fun, League. Let the players play, stay out of your opponents’ Twitch stream!!
Disconnects
If there is a disconnect, we will assume that it was unintentional and you try to reconnect or replay the match unless it is clearly obvious that one of the players had an insurmountable advantage and would have likely won. This needs to be agreed upon by both players, and we need to know this via email that you both were in agreement. Otherwise, replay that game. Remember this is a friendly League that aims to promote a fun and competitive environment. Don't be a dick… that’s our job. But also, don’t be afraid to call an issue to our attention; just be respectful.
Arbitration
Cucho is the head judge for this League . All rules, arbitration, will be conducted by him for the entirety of the tournament and all decisions are final. -God have mercy on your souls- If you are recording/streaming and there is need for arbitration, finish the games and match and send it to us with details including timestamps so we can arbitrate the issue as fairly as possible. If you and your opponent are not recording/streaming and you require arbitration you need to replay that game as we have no means of arbitrating. It pays to record/stream.
Cheating
Don't cheat. Pretty much that simple. This includes stream sniping, taking advice from your audience while on twitch (also known as coaching), someone else watching your opponents gameplay and feeding you information, etc... Penalty for cheating, whether it is defined in the rules as written or defined at a later date, is immediate DQ and ban from future tournaments. If you think it could be cheating, you probably shouldn't be doing it. If you have questions about it, email or PM us soonest. If you think your opponent is cheating or has an illegal deck list, if you are recording/streaming send us the video with the timestamp of the occurrence. If you are not recording/streaming, try to take a screenshot of the offense and send that to us.
Leaving the League
The League takes about 5 weeks from start to finish, and we can’t see the future. Things happen; real-life syndrome gets the best of us, and that’s to be expected from time to time. If you have to leave, contact the organization team and let us know your reasons. If you have to leave in the middle of a round, contact us and your opponent letting us know you are conceding and dropping from the tournament. The major takeaway is when someone leaves the tournament, any opponents that person has played will have a harder time having a chance getting into further stages. If you can, play for glory, play your matches, and give your opponents the best shot you can.
Weatons´s Law
Don't be a dick. Seriously. Only those deemed worthy by the Lords of the Coliseum have that privilege, and only if it's necessary. Your job is to have fun and try not to get turned into dog pit fodder. If you have a problem with the gameplay, getting together with your opponent, the way something went down in the game… whatever the problem, the correct answer is to let us know and we will deal with it. If any play, interaction, bug, etc… gets under your skin, puts you on tilt, gets you salty, whatever… stop and give yourself five minutes between a game to chill and get your head on straight. This is a friendly competition, so treat everyone with respect (including yourself)

Interested as always. I love a good excuse to play beyond dailys. My only issue is being matched up from folks across the pond or farther. My hours aren't as flexible or in the winter almost non-existent some years as have been in the past. I will always try and be available for matches on the weekend even if I'm working on vehicles... which looks like is happening again this coming weekend.
