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!
The first of what will be a season long tournament culiminating in the finals in May. Must finish in the top 16 of each tournament to qualify for the championship.
Note: Scarlet & Violet base set cards will be legal when it is released and Limitless updates their website to allow players to include them in their decklist submissions. In addition, prizing will be SIT until the release date of Crown Zenith. Note that the prizes listed for tournaments after January 20th will be SIT, however page will be updated to CZE once I am able to get my hands on the prizes for that.
Given how successful the last tournament was, there will be no match timers that you need to check into on Limitless. Once you are assigned your opponent, a judge will DM you a VC channel to join. You and your opponent will check in with the judge who will keep track of the game clock. Due to this, rounds be will 60 minutes long to accomodate for this. This is to more efficiently mitigate the consequences of unforseen circumstances / technical errors.
Prizes
- 1st Place: 100x SIT
- 2nd Place: 75x SIT
- 3rd Place: 20 SIT
- 4th-8th Place: 2 SIT
