The Brother's War Events
Starting Friday November 11th and through the official launch day, we will be hosting open play events, as well as prerelease tournaments on Friday and Saturday. What's more, not only can you pick up any of The Brothers' War product; individual or sealed boxes of boosters, decks, bundles, and Jumpstart- for the first time ever we can also sanction draft events.
Open Play
All Open Play events are a casual format. It's a way for you to play some Magic without having to commit to entering a tournament. Buy what you like, stay and play for however long you want, play whoever else is looking for a game too. Some examples include
- Jumpstart- Each player purchases 2 Jumpstart boosters, shuffles them up, and plays a regular game of MtG. Each booster has 20 cards including land and follows 1 of 10 different themes that you won't know until you open your pack and take a look. All Jumpstart product is compatible with other Jumpstart products, so if you want to pick up a The Brothers' War pack and a Dominaria United pack, you can totally do that. You can find more info on The Brothers' War Jumpstart product here
- Sealed Deck- Pick up a tournament pack, build a 40-card deck, and have a good time
- Commander- There will be 2 decks to choose from. 100 card deck, no duplicates, 1 is your commander. Best played in a group setting, but one on one can be great fun too. You can find out more about the decks here
Sealed Events
We have scheduled 3 main sealed deck events for prerelease; 1 on Friday and 2 on Saturday. Also, for the first time ever we will be hosting drafts on demand as well
Sealed Deck Tournament
Typically, a sealed deck tournament consists of purchasing 6 boosters, which you use to build a 40-card deck, You are then assigned an opponent based on your current win/loss record. Number of rounds are determined by the number of participants. The Brothers' War sealed deck event is like this, but more. For the cost of 1 tournament pack ($24.99 plus tax), you will receive
- 6 booster packs
