Start Time: Friday, 8am Duration: 7:45
The best of the best clash to determine who is the true Master of Spellfire. All players begin their journey in one of two qualifying rounds, though players are free to play in both qualifiers in an attempt to reach the semifinals. This year, two variants are being used to increase the excitement: The Grind and Dungeon Discard. The Grind is the same as last year, but the Dungeon Discard is new. You can discard your dungeon card (to the Void) at any time during your turn (timing is like a wish spell) to discard any one card in any discard pile to the Void. Tournament rules are available at www.wizards.com. (E-4)

For those players who have participated in sanctioned Spellfire tournaments across the world, the Master's Invitational is the event to attend. Only the top 50, based on rankings posted on July 1, 00 are eligible to participate. There will be 6 rounds of head to head swiss format, and then the top 9 people from the head to head portion take the same decks they played and play in a single elimination multi-player format.

In this unusual format, a 5-player team takes on another 5-player team in 5 head to head matches (best 2 out of 3). Team with the most matches won in that round is the victor. The only stipulation is that for all 5 decks that a team uses, only one of a card can appear in the all of the decks. So you will see different decks types and different cards appearing from out of the woodwork. You say you don't have a team, well this event is late enough to find some people to make your own team.
