The Spoils Winter Championships
By Steven– January 14, 2011
It’s finally here. This is the announcement we’ve been waiting for since The Spoils was first picked up by Arcane Tinmen. The quarterly championships are back. Major tournaments every few months all over the world that test players and help build communities – can you beat that? It’s safe to say that The Spoils is back, really back, and I personally could not be more excited.
The Winter Championships will be Sealed, with a Seed Competition Pack and 2 Seed II Boosters. Get your Yurt hats on…
Dumb excited about this.
As someone who has only recently started playing, I’m not familiar with this. What sets a “winter championship” apart from any random tournament, the prizes? Or do winners go on to a bigger tournament?
It’s got special prizes and the tournaments are regional, so you have larger groups of people playing. It’s basically a way to have all the small, local Spoils groups compete in a central location for better, more illustrious, prizes.
More than anything it’s a great time and a great way to meet fellow Spoils players and see if your deck is the best in the area!
Does anyone know how to find a store that is hosting this event? I have no local store, and I’m trying to figure out a store that I can travel to (within reason). I’m in Wisconsin.
I think they are going to post a list of host stores in the next week or so…
Excellent. A Winter Champs hoodie would be awfully nice!
Here’s hoping Delaware gets an event.
I’d love to play competitively again.
Tampa FL will have one on the 26th at Anthem Games!
Cheers! We’ll be having one in Tulsa, too =)
