Special Rules

  • At the start of the tournament, a TO randomly selects one rule from each column below.
  • Players then have 15 minutes to build decks. All decks must follow the 3 rules.
  • After the 15 minutes are over, players must stop everything else and start searching for their opponents in the game.
  • There is a twist! With each Decaying Potluck tournament, previously randomized rules will be removed from the table. This way, all rules will be used eventually.

  • The incarcerated: Cannot use Air, Life and Light cards, except PPM
  • The resistant: No spells
  • The balanced: must have an equal number of creatures and spells.

Spoiler for Hidden:
Decayed rules:

  • The joyful: Minimum 7 pillars and 7 pendulums
  • The pillarless: No pillars
  • The morbidly obese: 60-card deck
  • The precise: Exactly 17 pendulums
  • The thin: 30-card deck
  • The temporary: No Deflagration, Steal, Pulverizer, Butterfly Effect or Shard of Focus

  • The freedom fighter: Denial cards are banned
  • The off-square: No cards that cost 1, 4 or 9 quantum
  • The yin-yang: Opposing duos must be used (Light/Darkness, Entropy/Gravity, Time/Aether etc.); you can't use both Black Hole/Amber Nymph and Discord in the same deck
  • The problemsolver: No cards that cost 2, 3, 6, 8 or 9 quantum
  • The 3: No more than 3 copies of each card (other than PPM)
Decayed rules:
  • The off-element: No cards with the same ability cost as their element
  • The common: No rare cards
  • The wishy-washy: No permanents (other than pillars and pendulums)
  • The knight: Cannot use Darkness, Death, Entropy and Aether cards, except pillars/pendulums

Tournament Organizer Note

Instead, send a private message to Tournament Organizers, who will privately discuss about it. Thanks for your cooperation.

All I played was mono air... SoFr OP not just strong.

Spoiler for deck and its variants:
My deck started out like this.
Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5od 5od 5od 5od 5od 5od 5oe 5oe 5oe 5oe 5of 5of 5of 5of 5of 5of 5og 5og 5ol 5pa 5pa 5pa 5pa 5pa 5pa 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 8pr

After the first game I replaced a pillar for a third fog shield. At some point I added another Owl's Eye somehow. Half way through the tournament I changed the deck to this which is what I played the rest of the tournament.
