The host will make the matches, you have 3 days to make your matches become true.

if this mean playing the matchs and not scheduling, change it to 7 days if u don't wanna dq half of the players in the first round

why ban mind flayer and hope (these two are the most random bans, followed by purple nymph) and not classic cards like discord?

in general a pvp event has a lot more factions, if u wanna keep 3 factions, make at least 2 sub factions for every faction with a restricted card pool.

also spellcasters are UP as hell, how do they win? poison without arsenic and no creatures is slow, any bolt deck has as only defense against rush fog shield and no healing, the only viable deck i can think is a sort of vdb or an hecate deck.

are shards banned?

[Naii_the_Baf]

No, shards are not banned. Working on fixing spellcasters.

[Manuel]

other things:

swordsmen aren't UP like spellcasters, but still u are almost forced to animate a weapon plus graboid
forgot about the fact that spellcaster has nymph's tears, but still.

if shards are viable, if soi is considered a spell should be banned probably, because spellcasters has enough shard to make a golem deck with sow

btw thinking about it a little bit, u should totally change the restriction for the factions, u can't ban 80% of creatures for 2 factions and allow the other one to play without restriction, why i should choose a faction that force me to play at least a trio when i can pick co and make even mono decks? cos has 3 cc spell and poison lol, is ridiculous

[Naii_the_Baf]

SoI is considered a creature:

The marks on it are characteristic of a creature.

[Fippe94]

I wouldn't consider it as a creature. You never see a "Shard of Integrity" on the field.

[ARTHANASIOS]

I wouldn't consider it as a creature. You never see a "Shard of Integrity" on the field.

But you see a Shard Golem don't you? I view SoI like another Chimera-like creature. Does it has a "lightning" icon like a spell or a "column" icon like a permanent? Nope... But it has a "+|+" icon, like a creature.

Btw, I am in!

[Naii_the_Baf]

Btw, I am in!

Nice to know you like it.

Next to what you said:

They have the same symbols and we all know a Chimera is a creature.
