Rules: 2 players will build one team. One play DS and one plays LS. Total results count.
Requirements: No deck lists required, open to all players
Event Details:
This is easy. Bulid a team of 2 players, and give yourselves a cool name (for example “Massacre Machine” or “Viking Squad 1”). One of the players has a DS deck and the other a LS deck. This will be as a normal constructed tournament, only that one team plays against another team. This might be a good last chance to test your deck for next day.

Consolation Tournament
Registration Start: 11:30

Entry Fee: TBA
Number of Games: 4
Number of Expected players: 10-15
Tournament Style: Swiss Constructed (only reset v-cards allowed)
Ranking/Pairing System: Differential
Requirements: No deck lists required, open to all players
Event Details:
The Consolation Tourney is for all others who did not “make” the Top 8 on Day 2. There are NO deck lists required for this event, and the “nothing to lose” atmosphere is usually much more cheerful that the one for the Top players. We could use some help with running the consolation tourney. Potential helper can still play.

Hope we have some American attendance again. Look forward to see all you guys here!

Is this event fun? Considering coming for the 1st time

[Paul McPherson]

I'll be there but I need to take some awful flights (land at DUS at 22:20 on the Friday and leave DUS at 07:00 on the Monday). I will be staying at the Acora on the Saturday night but I am undecided as to whether to stay there on Friday and Sunday or whether to book a hotel at the airport.

[Madmanwithabox]

I guess someone needs to be in last place, so count me in.

[Sagnet]

The same weekend as Copenhagen Half Marathon. Have to make a choice, then.

[Commander Fox]

Signing in!

That's an easy choice. You get to play swccg cards, and avoid running!

Don’t know about fun, but I once heard sometimes it’s free if it’s your first tournament. But maybe things changed since the OT emperor died (or didn’t he?)

[Kessling]

Will try my best. Should be doable!

[Darth Eweuge]

Team Wales are booked and ready for our annual Beer & cards pilgrimage to Germany.

Will try my best. Should be doable!

Mike this would be amazing

Don't worry. It won't be you, good Darren! There's a new scrub, who wants to play for the first time in ages:

Booked the Acora from Friday to Sunday evening (leaving Sunday eve).

[TheDutchMike]

Hotel booked, so count me in!

[rax]
