We're have completed playing through OP Kit 6, "Menace of Ruination" and are now just getting together for "casual-yet-organized" Mage Wars.

See latest post (below) for details.

Prizes include alt-art promo cards.  Points are awarded for match wins (below) and story achievements. 

Date and Time:

- registration: 5:45 pm
- first match: 6:00 pm
- usually play 2 matches
(venue closes at 10:00pm)

We're also considering the occasional weekend tournament if there is sufficient interest.

Scoring:
- Match Win   4 pts
- Modified Win   3 pts
- Draw       1 pt
- Match Loss    0 pts

Match Win: Opponent mage is dealt lethal damage within time limit, or V'tar goal achieved in Domination.

Modified Win: In the event that no player has attained a Match Win when time is called, the player with the most Life remaining after Damage (i.e. Life – Damage) is awarded the Modified Win. If there is no clear Modified Win, both players will receive a Draw.  A Modified Win might also be given to a second-place Mage who achieves the V'tar goal in Domination (but doesn't have the highest V'tar score when the match ends).

Draw: If a Modified Win is awarded, the player with the lower Life remaining after Damage is awarded a Draw.
