Rules and Best Practices:
Proxy Policy: You may have any number of high-quality, printed proxies. Handwritten or paper-in-front-of-card proxies are not allowed.
Deck Standards: Decks should be fully optimized with "best-in-slot" cards; "Rule 0" is not applicable.
Game Structure: Matches will be 1v1. Please see below for more information.
Fast Play: Players are expected to know their decks well and act efficiently, as slow play can be a major issue in timed rounds.
No "Take-Backs": Physical actions are locked in once taken. Missed triggers cannot be "triggered" later if forgotten.
Interaction & Power Level: Expect intense stack-heavy, fast games, where turn 2-3 wins are possible, and high-efficiency interaction is required.
