Prizing Structure

8-13 : Top 2; 1st gets choice of Anniversary gold cards, Frontier cards or Playmat & Sleeves, 2nd gets the choice from leftovers

14-19 : Top 4; 1st gets an Anniversary box, 2nd gets choice of Anniversary gold cards, Frontier cards or Playmat & Sleeves, 3rd and 4th get sleeves

20-23 : Top 4; 1st gets an Anniversary box, 2nd gets choice of Anniversary gold cards, Frontier cards or Playmat & Sleeves, 3rd gets the choice from leftovers, 4th gets whats left (or playmat & sleeves)

24+ : Top 8; 1st gets an Anniversary box, 2nd gets choice of Anniversary gold cards, Frontier cards or Playmat & Sleeves, 3rd gets the choice from leftovers, 4th gets whats left (or playmat & sleeves), 5th gets playmat & sleeves, 6th-8th gets sleeves

We have a fairly decent prize pool to choose from, which consists of the Anniversary boxes, various playmats and sleeves, as well as cards from our personal collections that we may decide to add. While our playmat commission has been finished, we still have to send to the printer and receive them, so they will not be available until midseason, most likely.

Cheating

We are very heavy against cheating of any sorts - whether that is getting help from your stream chat, someone offering advice, weird shuffling, taking cards from elsewhere - nothing is tolerated. Each occurrence will be reviewed on an individual basis, but will almost surely result in not only an immediate ban from the tournament, but barred from all future tournaments as well as the Discord. We do not tolerate cheating, and we will make sure to investigate and prosecute cheaters to the best of our ability.
