DeckRules

1: The Pokemon in your deck are restricted to the following card names:

  • Any card with "Raichu" in its name (Rule Box Pokemon and Regional Variants are allowed).
  • Any card with the exact name "Pikachu".

2: You must have a minimum of 8 Pokemon in your deck.

3: You may only have one copy of each card with the same name & function in your deck. This applies to all Pokemon, Trainers, and Special Energy. (Basic Energy may be used in any quantity).

Those 3 rules are the only restrictions on deck-building. You may use any cards available in PTCGO's Unlimited card pool, provided your deck follows the rules above.

Structure

Phase 1: Swiss BO1 (30 minutes)

  • Single game against each opponent; 30-Minute Round Timer.
  • If all matches are completed early, we will move ahead with the next round immediately.
  • Any match without results reported by end of round will be scored a double loss.

Following the end of Phase 1, the Top 4 players according to the Standings will advance to Phase 2.

Phase 2: Top Cut BO3 (50 minutes)

  • Single-Elimination fixed bracket, seeded based on standings from the Swiss portion.
  • Best-of-3 set; 50-Minute Round Timer
  • If a match runs over time, the player who is currently ahead (first in games won, and then in prize cards taken) will be declared the winner. (If tied, players will play until the next prize card is taken.)

Policies

Check-In Requirement: You must check in within the first 5 minutes of every round or you will automatically receive the game loss. Please keep your dashboard open during the tournament so that you are aware of when each new round is paired.

Deck Sharing ON: The Deck List Sharing feature must always be turned ON in the game settings.

Match Timers ON: When you challenge your opponent you must always enable the Timed Match option.

Wrong Deck Selected: If a player chooses the wrong deck by accident, they must declare so immediately before any actions are taken. If Deck Sharing is on, the opposing player should be able to verify that the deck was in fact incorrect and the game should be replayed. If any conditions above are not met, the result is a game loss.

Illegal Decklist: If a player is discovered to have submitted a deck that does not comply with the rules, they will be dropped from the event without exception. It is the player’s responsibility to submit a legal decklist in advance; no changes of any kind are allowed once the event has started.

Disconnections/Leaving a Game: In the event of a disconnect, the timer will continue to run while the player attempts to reconnect. If the game ends the match due to inactivity or a player leaves the game for any other reason, it is considered a game loss.

Need Help?: Please notify the organizer immediately if you have any concerns. Use the Request a Judge button here on Limitless or get in touch with @rabidragon on our league's Discord.
