Modern

Jan 4-6th is the Oakland Grand Prix, which is Modern.  Let’s get each other great so we can kick butt and represent for D20. So  we’re going to be doing Modern tournaments on Sundays from now on.   This is a higher level constructed tournament and is good for experienced players.

Special treat…for the first events, bonus special Standard Showdown pack for the first 8 players.  The Showdown packs come with a foil, a rare and a special foil land, and are very cool. (The bonus packs are given even if the tournament doesn’t fire)

What:  Modern Format Magic Tournament.  4 rounds, prizes based on number of wins and number of players.

Cost: $10 per person. (2 packs into the prize pool per person.)

Extra Competition for the best Modern player in the store. We will be tracking win and loss records up to the Grand Prix in January.  Top players will get special prizes to show off as they represent for D20 at the Grand Prix.
