If you’ve been enjoying our Pokémon Standard League on Thursdays, be sure to come and join us Thursday, January 30th at 6pm for our Standard League Challenge! This organized play season runs from January 1st through March 31st. How many Championship Points will you earn this season??
Format: Standard. This includes cards from F Regulation Block and newer. Swiss Rounds will be Best-of-One matches and rounds will be 30 minutes long.
Structure: League Challenges feature Swiss Paired rounds and do not include a top cut for additional single elimination rounds. All players will play in all rounds. The amount of Swiss Paired rounds is determined by how many players attend.
1-8 Players: 3 Rounds
9-16 Players: 4 Rounds
17-32 Players: 5 Rounds
Reminder, that if there is a Junior/Senior split off, they will only play 3 rounds.
Prizing
Championship Points will be awarded based on final placement after the Swiss Paired Rounds.
Each Division (Juniors, Seniors, and Masters) will have their own Prize Pools. We will add two booster packs to the prize pool for each player in that division. For example: If there are six Juniors, their prize pool will be 12 packs. If there are 10 Masters, their prize pool will be 20 packs.
Prizing from each prize pool will be distributed within each division based on performance.
1st Place: 15 CPs + ~40% of prize packs (split if there are 2 winners)
2nd Place 12 CPs + ~20% of prize packs
3rd/4th Place: 10 CPs + ~10% of prize packs
5th-8th Place: 8 CPs (if we reach 24 players) + ~5% of prize packs
9th-16th Place: 6 CPs (if we reach 48 players)
***There can be up to TWO 1st Place finishers per League Challenge, per Division.
Players and parents should expect the entire tournament to take up to 3 hours.
