Q&A:

Q: Are the numbers of pillars, creatures, spells and permanents fixed numbers or they'll be something like (12< pillars, 6>permanents, etc...)?
Q: Will all decks be the same amount of cards in them?
A: Could be anything.

Q: Do we choose our class prior to knowing how many creatures, pillars, etc. are in each class or after?
A: Numbers will be revealed after all players choose a class.

methinks a rough idea of what you an build can be guessed from which class you pick aka mages will be more spell based, barbarians creature based and artificers will be prm based i'm going to estimate about half decksize is the amount each class will have for their respective specialisation cards but nice idea instead of cardsets being released 15 minutes early it is deck amounts i lik the fact that the first non cardset speedbuilding was my own idea hopefully i'll be here

Soooo we don't get to make our decks until 15 minutes before the tournament starts? Sure, you can kinda guess at it and if you knew the exact restrictions already then it'd be almost like any other tournament, but... why can't we choose upfront?
I really only ask out of curiousity, I'm not going to play. I want to take my relaxed time forging a neat little deck. :x

The reason numbers aren't posted up front is because it would defeat the object of speedbuilding. you could choose a class right now if you wanted you just wouldn't be able to build a guaranteed legal deck.

We will have an TO?

Oh, right. How did I manage to completely read over that.

Well, good luck to everybody in this. =)

[dawn to dusk]

Hmm 4am... Maybe I'll be there

Will all decks be the same amount of cards in them? Or will this be revealed 15 mins before as well?
The tourney sounds fun and I hope to be in it

I'll try to be there... as long as there aren't nymphs .

nymphs are usually allowed but i get the feeling the limitation might make them hard to use

I usually don't play, and will simply drop out/forfeit matches where I see nymphs in tournaments.

Nymphs actually aren't that bad to face they ae high cost and it means if you won't play nymphs you will never get every card nearly all tournies have at least one nymph, and both leagus have nymphs yes you can ban them there but still you will see how littl impact nymphs actually make they are trophies rather than heavy duty deck cards
