Tournament Organizer Note

If you think there is an overpowered card that ought to be banned, or you have some concerns about the tournament metagame, mechanics or other stuff, do NOT post it publicly in the comments or anywhere else on the Forums. Instead, send a private message to Tournament Organizers, who will privately discuss about it. Thanks for your cooperation.

TOURNAMENTS Q&A

Q: ?
A: !

[Wyand]

This is something I wanted to host a very long time ago.

- Tourney time might change. Holidays are busy, please tell me if there is a better time for you.

- Rules may change. Please send me a PM if you find a totally OP deck, and I change the rules accordingly.

- This is possibly the last tournament, unless you want another between 27th and 31th. Or the server stays alive after New Year's Eve...

[Wyand]

Ideally, this will happen tomorrow. Other than that I'm open for different ideas for starting time. Didn't really have much time recently to care about this tourney, but will check a few stuff tonight.
Send me feedback in PMs, thanks.

[worldwideweb3]

do we have to have an illicit item card, or medical staff card or fouls card in deck?

[Wyand]

Ah crap, it got cropped from the screenshot... Illicits are optional, meanwhile you have to pick at least one card from the Semi-Optional group.

[Timdood3]

In the name of nostalgia before it's too late, I'll be there.

Has player turnout been high enough for tournaments to actually run?

(Also in illicit items, Adrenaline should be Epinephrine)

[Wyand]

Thanks for the feedback, gonna fix that. (Also fixed other unupped occurences.)

Usually we run 4-player tourneys. Hopefully this one will be bigger.

[Wyand]

I moved Graveyard to managerial cards. Sorry for last moment change, this is something I really had to do, and thankfully it won't really affect balance after all.
