Pokemon League Play

We have an official Pokemon League - come join us for some Pokemon fun.

This month we are using the unlimited format - meaning you can use cards from any Pokemon set.  Bring your own 60 card deck containing any amount of basic energy cards and up to 4 copies each of any other card from any set.  (We have pre-constructed decks for sale in the store if you don't have a deck.) Play different opponents and earn points - 10 points per game with 10 bonus points if you win. Earn enough points to get prizes! This is casual / league play - it is not a sanctioned tournament and will not earn you any ratings points.  For more information on league play - please refer to the Pokemon-TCG web-site.

Entry fee: Free!!!

Prizes: Based on your point totals - the more you play, the more you get. For example at 110 points you earn a special 2-card booster pack. You don't have to get all 110 points on the same day - come back each week and keep adding to your point total.

League play on Sunday from approximately Noon till 3:00pm.  League play is casual - you can arrive late, get in a few games and leave early if needed.  Most players tend to show up around 1pm.  Due to other events starting on Sunday afternoon around 4pm, we ask players to make room if needed (i.e., if you are still playing when the other event is supposed to start - please allow the other game to begin).

D&D Minis - 300 point Constructed

Entry: $5

Each player needs to bring a 300 point (or less) warband and a map to play on (the store has a small supply of maps in case you don't have one).  A tournament will be played with the prize pool being split between the top 2 finishers.

Prizes:  All entry fees are put towards store credit that will be split 70%/30% between the top 2 finishers in the event.
