Welcome to the 15th PokéStats Old Format tournament, and first real-time event! This tournament will be played in the Next Destinies through Flashfire format (NXD-FLF), which was used for the 2014 World Championships.

This tournament will be played with best-of-one Swiss rounds plus a best-of-three Top Cut based on attendance. (Number of Swiss rounds subject to change.) Matches will be played on PTCGO; both players must draw-pass on their first turn, then play resumes as normal (this is to negate the turn 1 supporter rule change).

REGISTRATION:

• Send 2 packs of Vivid Voltage (VIV) to Erik_A on PTCGO.
• Submit a decklist only containing cards from Black & White: Next Destinies through XY: Flashfire here on Limitless. Failure to do so will result in being dropped from the event. Later reprints of cards still legal in this format are permitted.
• Be sure to CHECK IN before the event begins if you hope to play!

PRIZING:

• 100% of packs collected for entry will be re-distributed amongst the tournament's top finishers.
• Any extra packs that I have lying around will also be thrown into the prize pool!
• Exact prizing payouts are to be determined by attendance, and will be announced during the tournament in our Discord.

IMPORTANT:

• If a player forgets to draw-pass on their first turn, or evolves on "turn 1," the game is to restart and that player will get a double Prize penalty.
• If you disconnect during a game, you will receive a game loss, however your opponent can choose to deny it.
• IDs (intentional draws) ARE allowed.
• To communicate these or any other tournament-related issues to staff, use the "Call a Judge" function on your match screen.
• Decklists are CLOSED as we believe that this will improve the tournament experience. However, please adhere to the spirit of the game and do not abuse this feature by switching out any cards from your deck during the event.
• Be sure to join our Discord server at https://discord.gg/H3pAmwKQ in case we must contact you for any reason before, during or after the event.

Good luck, and most importantly, have fun!
