Event Structure: This will be a 4 round swiss sevens tournament, which will follow the gameplay rules as stated in the Death Zone rulebook. All rosters will reset at the end of every match (any casualties, dead players, etc.), meaning you will start every game with the roster you submitted. The kickoff table from the Death Zone rulebook shall be used.

Roster Building
This event is a demonstration of all the best players the Blood Bowl Sevens leagues have to offer, that means coaches will be bringing some heat! There will be no amateurs in this showdown, as there will be many more skills to be assigned to your players than in the average sevens game.
Roster building will follow the same rules as normal sevens. 600,000gp, no more than 4 positional (non lineman) players, and re-rolls cost double.
You may purchase any inducements from the Death Zone sevens rules, except for mercenaries. Anything purchased will come from the 600,000gp allocated.
Each rostered player can have no more than two additional skills of any kind. In addition to this, no skill can be chosen for your team more than twice. (example: you could not give 3 players on your team the Block skill). Skills are priced below.
- Primary Skill – 1 point
- Secondary Skill – 2 points
Each team’s skill points will be allocated depending on tiering.
- Tier 1 teams – 4 points
- Tier 2 teams – 6 points
- Tier 3 teams – 8 points
