What Is Progression?

Similar to a prerelease, each player will have a unique card pool. This is allocated by Rotom Bot of the PTCGL League Discord server. The cards are selected from the G-block series and card probabilities are based on real-life booster packs, at 10 cards per pack. From generating 40 SVI packs and 36 PAL packs, each player will have 760 individual cards to choose from.

How to Play

1. Navigate to the progression-pulls channel of the PTCGL League Discord server. This is where your card collection will be allocated by our friendly Rotom Bot - just as if it were opening booster packs for you. Within that channel, type in "!pull SVI" or "!pull PAL". If you participated in the previous event, your collection will be kept and you can optionally "!reset" it before expanding with "!pull PAL".

2. Once you have generated a card collection, use the "!show" or "!export" commands and Rotom Bot will provide a list with images. You can include a suffix to filter this list, for example "!show Commons" will show all your Common-rarity cards, or "!show :typefire:" will show all your Fire-type Pokemon cards. The "!export" command will provide the entire card list in a format acceptable by LimitlessTCG's deck builder. More information is available from the progression-info channel of the PTCGL League Discord server.

3. Register to play. Construct and submit your deck before the deadline (December 6 @ 9:59PM New York Time).

4. Use PTCGL to play your matches.

Note:

• For the purpose of a balanced game, all players additionally have access to 4 (four) copies of a Standard-legal Supporter card that has the exact phrase: "Draw 3 cards."
• This event is the second of multiple "Progression" styled events. In the following events, players will be able to use the same cards of their collection, in amongst additional cards generated for that new set. If a player participates in at least 2 rounds of this event, they will keep their collection for the next event but are allowed to re-pull ("!reset") it before generating a new set of cards.
• As always, acquiring the cards in-game is the player's responsibility. The cards generated by Rotom Bot only permit a player to use them in this event, up to the number specified.
