Flashfire Prerelease: Sunday, May 4th, 11AM


Hello trainers!

On the 3rd of November is our next Prerelease Event - for the new TCG set, Flashfire. For those who are new to the League or TCG in general, this is a great opportunity to pick up cards from the new set before they are officially released, and below regular retail price. The entry fee on the day will be £20, which covers the cost of the eight boosters each participant receives and venue rental. All participants will take part in a Limited Format Tournament using a deck made up from cards they get from six boosters and energy supplied by the League. After the tournament is complete, each player then receives two additional booster packs, for a total of eight.

If you wish to participate in the Prerelease Event, you'll need to arrive at Cameron Toll Burger King between 11AM and 11:30AM. Anyone that arrives after 11:30 may not be able to join in, so please be prompt! Also, please note that if you do not stay for the entire tournament you will not receive the final two booster packs that the other participants receive.

If you attend the League but don't want to participate in the prerelease, that's no problem - you can still come and have regular League play at the venue as usual!

NOTE: Please let us know if you are planning to attend, as this event may be cancelled if attendance is not high enough!

Hope to see you there!

Upcoming Events: Edinburgh City Championships & X/Y Collection Pre-release!

Yes, it has indeed been a while. Needless to say we've all been pretty busy, and the League itself has faced some changes. However, consolidation has occurred, so we're back, and with news of upcoming events!

Edinburgh City Championships
Sunday 2nd February, 2014.
Start Time: 11 AM
Entry: £10.00

Location: Study Room, Teviot Row House (Bristo Square)

First you can come on down to our City Championships. All you need is a legal 60 card deck of the Next Destinies - Legendary Treasures format, and a decklist. Registration starts at 11 AM, and will end at Noon, which is when the Tournament will begin! Be on time, if not early, because if you are late, you are liable to receive a first round game loss.

In addition, Glasgow is having their own City Championships conveniently the day before (Saturday, 1st of February). The rules are the same, but the start time is 9.45 AM. Entry is also £10.00.

However: If you go to both events, you will receive entry to both events at the price of £16.00 instead!

For all of those based in Edinburgh, thinking about attending Glasgow, buses depart every 15 minutes from St. Andrews station, and a return ticket costs about a tenner for any time return.



Following that, the Sunday after we will be hosting our X&Y Prerelease.
While slightly after the actual release date, this is a definite go to event, because you're still getting bargain prices per booster pack! That being said, price of entry is the usual £22.50. This covers hall rental and the 8 total packs you will receive.

Remember, a fun tournament is part of the whole affair! So you'll be getting six packs first, opening those, and then using those to create a 40 card deck. Once the tournament is over, then you will receive your two extra packs.

More will be posted on pre-release both nearer to the date and once we have the venue confirmed (we hope to hold it in the same place, of course).
