------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Lean & Mean Format
This format is the same as Standard Constructed, except you MUST include 6 Lean & Mean cards in your deck and your deck must be the minimum deck size.

Headed Giant Format:
This format is not for the faint of heart, but is addictively fun. The tournament director will announce the selection process for the players to choose two immortals with which they can build their deck. The common choices for this are Male/Female, TV/Movie, but can be almost any combination. Once the format has been determined, each player picks the immortals they wish to play with. Pregame limit is still 6, and each persona does count as one pre-game. When figuring out your gem count for deck construction, you take the highest attribute in each category between the two immortals you have chosen. The 25 gem count does not apply in this format, however the restrictions of Methos’ and Marcus persona abilities do apply as well as the “no attribute higher than 13” rule. Game play is the same as any other format with a few differences.

1) In order for a player to be declared as winning by a head shot, the player must take both of his opponent’s heads. When a player loses their first head, they choose which immortal goes away. Any of that immortal’s cards you have in play are discarded and you may not play any of those cards unless you have an effect allowing you to do so (Example: Teacher of Many). Also, you take the amount of damage pending from the power blow.

2) No generic allowance cards are allowed during deck construction. You may use persona specific allowance cards as normal.

3) Corda and Reno can be played as individual personas but not together.

4) No Quickenings are allowed.

 

Details: Specific Times for events are TBC but will be played on Saturday and Sunday at this time.
