Announcing the Meta Retreat tournament! (with another small update)

A little long but there’s a TL;DR for those who just want the important information.

SirOmega here! I’m pleased to come to the Duelyst Community with a new tournament called the “Meta Retreat.” In this tournament the format will be a rotating between different rules and limited card pools. I made this tournament realizing we are lacking in something a little bit more on the fun side. I wanted this tournament to be fun and open to players of all skill levels and with limiting card pools in different and interesting ways, it would allow that to happen. So here we are the rules all fleshed out and the first format selected.

This first format for the Meta Retreat tournament is Pauper Format! It’s one of the most common limiting rules in card games and might be one of the most fun. Having a deck made with only commons and rares will provide a variety of decks and interesting ideas to be made. The first tournament will be hosted this coming Sunday, 02/25/2018 beginning at 10AM PST. The tournament will also be hosted in a Swiss style bracket, this may change based on how the community reacts. This tournament is being run by myself and not with TMA.

Speaking of that I have also officially stepped down from running Duelyst Melee and I will no longer be functioning under Three Moves Ahead for the future of any tournament I host. This decision was one to allow a bit more flexibility in running tournaments and to bring more diversity in the tournament scene. The decision to leave was met with no hard feelings and I continue to be friends with everyone from the organization.

TL;DR

I left TMA to run my own tournaments, the first one I’m hosting is called Meta Retreat with a rotating format, starting with a pauper format. Here’s the link to my tournament Meta Retreat

Honestly do it, if you don’t mind going face a lot on getting in those nice snow Piercer kills then it’s a pretty sweet list, also I reccomend +1 AoB -Prison because ursablomb is cute.

Why tho, 4/5 can kill your stuff

A 3/3 can kill your stuff as well, but have you read the last part of its text, Also, we are playing a deck where we don’t care if things last more than a turn of not.

I guess you can also use it on your own guys to remove something / deal extra face if needed

Maybe it’s good :thinking:

It’s really good, aspect of the fox hasn’t been touched since its Nerf and the only better vanar removal card is corona. (in a vacume.)

Corona isn’t removal though :thonk:
