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).
It seems the mighty heroes are resting again after bringing the mightly Ragnaros to his knees last weekend!
This coming Sunday, join us at Connection Games & Comics 2 for some casual constructed play. We’ve got new players coming down and it will be a good time to stretch out your decks and get ready for the 2010 Battlegrounds Season just around the corner.
We’ll be kicking off at 12pm and playing for as long as people want to play. We will also have the January 2010 Battlegrounds sign-up sheet out. If you want to participate, you can sign up now (or anytime before the end of Jan). More information on Battlegrounds coming soon!
As a special request, there will be a Black Temple Raid deck if there are 3 people brave enough to attempt it.
So everyone come out, bring your decks and play for some fun – even bring cards for trading if you want. It’s a casual day for all to enjoy!
Happy Winter Veil!

Prizes:
Participate in 3 or more Hobby League events in the month and receive a Hobby League participation parallel rare while supplies last (one per player per month). The prize pool consists of champion or tournament packs while supplies last, or boosters of the most recent set we have in stock. Size of the pool depends on the number of players in the event (generally 1 pack per player in the tournament). Prize pool is split between the top 2 (9 or less people), or top 4 (10 or more people). The winner gets at least 50% of the prize pool.
Additional prizes are given away at the last tournament of the month based on total match wins for the month (and if that is tied - number of events played will be used). So the more often you play, the better your chance for one of these prizes. Additional prizes may include some of the following items depending on availability: playmats, t-shirts, parallel rare cards, or booster packs.

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 2-3 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.

Prizes:
Participate in 3 or more Hobby League events in the month and receive a Hobby League participation parallel rare while supplies last (one per player per month). The prize pool consists of champion or tournament packs while supplies last, or boosters of the most recent set we have in stock. Size of the pool depends on the number of players in the event (generally 1 pack per player in the tournament). Prize pool is split between the top 2 (9 or less people), or top 4 (10 or more people). The winner gets at least 50% of the prize pool.
Additional prizes are given away at the last tournament of the month based on total match wins for the month (and if that is tied - number of events played will be used). So the more often you play, the better your chance for one of these prizes. Additional prizes may include some of the following items depending on availability: playmats, t-shirts, parallel rare cards, or booster packs.
