Introduction

Greetings challenger. I am Koroua, and this is my gladitorial arena on the wonderful planet of Geron. Here, you will take part in a series of battles against other legendary champions, seeking the greatest of prizes. Do you have what it takes to become a legend? Come now, test your might!

This tournament is invite-only for players who have placed top 5-10, depending on the size of previous tournaments. If players drop out prior to the tournament, others may be able to join. The point of this is to create a more competitive atmosphere for the Expanded format since most tournaments consist of players of varying degrees of skill, thus skewing result and numbers when calculating tier lists.

The San Juan Mountains are beautiful!
