So what time does the fun start? Contact me to reserve your seat! ******************************************** As usual, we will be having two different ways to play in the Prerelease: Want to get some extra booster packs? Bring in your friends, neighbors, parents... for every new person you bring in to play, in either the Main Event or the Theme Deck Challenge, I'll give you a bonus pack! Let's face it, Pokemon is a GREAT game, we ALL love it, and it's MORE fun the more people who play! This is going to be a VERY exciting new set and this is the very first day it's available too! You won't want to miss it!! Also keep in mind the spirit of a Prerelease is non-competitive, with no real pressure to win, which is why everyone will receive prize packs at the end. The main objective is to have fun and check out all the new cards! But don't worry, we'll have LOTS of random pack giveaways throughout the day! I also have some really cool door prizes to give out... besides packs and sleeves and such, I'll give out a free Pass to our next Prerelease worth $25, as well as some other great door prizes! You can be sure we'll have a good time!
EMAIL me or call TIY (815-633-0330) to Preregister! *************Supreme Victors Prerelease************
Main event - Each player will receive 6 booster packs of the new set (to keep) and may start opening their packs. Players will each build their own 40 card deck (using only those cards from the 6 packs) to play in the tourney and write down their decklist, deciding how many energies they will want to include in their decks. ( no trading cards with others until after the Tourney) Basic energies are provided on loan, and for this Prerelease we will also have special Proxie Basic Dark and Basic Metal Energies. Everyone will then have 30 minutes to build their decks using the cards from the packs they received. And don't worry, it's not really that hard to build your own deck... generally there aren't a whole lot of trainers in a set, so you'll usually want to include as many of them that will be helpful as you can. You want to make sure you have as many basic Pokemon as you can, and include any evolutions that you might have been lucky enough to get as well. Try to keep your deck to 2 or 3 types, like Fire and Electric or whichever, because that will be helpful to you in drawing the particular energies you need for your Pokemon's attacks. Of course Colorless type Pokemon can fit nicely into any type of deck since they can use any type of energy you happen to have. Since your deck needs to be 40 cards in total, a relatively simple rule of thumb would be 20 energies and 20 in any combination of basics, their evolutions (if you got any), and trainers. Then, just decide how many of which type of energies you'll need to get by looking over the energy requirements for your Pokemon's attacks. And that's pretty much all there is to it! Remember, it's a tournament for fun, so don't stress over building 'the perfect deck'... just have fun with it!
Prizes:ALL participants who finish will receive 2 more Supreme Victors prize packs at the end of the tourney ************************************************************************ Supreme Victors Prerelease This special tourney will be separate from the main event and follows a much more casual format. Great for younger players, parents, or those who may not be as familiar with deck building on their own, but would still like to participate. If you don't know how to play, we can teach you! Each player will choose one of 2 different Supreme Victors Theme Decks to use to battle others who also choose the Theme Deck Challenge, and the nice thing about playing the Theme Deck Challenge is that each Theme Deck also comes with one of the new Rulebooks and playmats, a special coin, and your own damage counters, all very useful tools for the newer players. And all participants in this Theme Deck Challenge will ALSO receive 4 more Supreme Victors prize packs for participating in the tourney, in addition to the decks they played. If you know you're going to want to be in the Theme Deck Challenge, let me know when you Preregister so I can mark you down for it. Or you can decide when you get there. Often there are more players who want to play the Theme Deck Challenge in the afternoon, so that's why I usually have then, since it's more fun the more players you have. But I have enough product to run it for as many who want it this time. Last time we had a Theme Deck Challenge at both the morning and the afternoon events. ************************************************************************ Also... if you want to come and play, but can't afford it, we have an option for you... I have a Sponsor program... sometimes I have regular players who, for whatever reason, can't make it to the Prerelease but still don't want to miss out, so they need someone to fill in for them. If you get sponsored by someone, they pay for your entry, they get the cards you pull, the sleeves and the Promo card, but you get to keep any door prizes you win, and you get the fun of actually being able to still participate in the tourney and play with the new cards. It's a win-win situation. Contact me if you need a sponsor or want to be one. . . Can't wait to see you there! I'll have some cookies waiting for you! Contact me to reserve your seat now!
