Short on time but hungry for competitive Pokémon TCG?
Then this tournament series is for you. Instead of waiting forever for each round to finish, we play short, intense rounds focused on training, tempo, and matchup experience.
🔥 What’s the idea?
- Round time: 15 minutes + 5 minutes check-in (max. 20 minutes total)
- Goal: 4–5 rounds in about 1.5 hours, instead of 2.5+ hours like most online tournaments
- Focus: as many different matchups as possible in the current format
- Environment: real tournament feeling instead of random ladder games in Pokémon TCG Live
⏱️ Why shorter rounds?
- You learn to play faster and more focused
- You train sequencing, decision making, and time management under real tournament conditions
- Less waiting, more playing: instead of sitting around 10–15 minutes after a quick game, you’re already moving on to the next round
🎯 Who is this for?
- Players who want to test for bigger events (Regionals, SPEs, Cups, etc.)
- People with limited time (job, family, life) who still want to stay sharp in the meta
- Everyone who is tired of ladder and prefers playing motivated opponents in a proper structure
🧾 Rules & Structure
- We play in the current PFL Standard
- Tournament structure: 4 rounds Swiss, no Top Cut
- Rounds are Best-of-1 (BO1) to keep things fast and focused
- Please be on time and prepared so we can make the most of the short round times
