This year will feature several TCG events across the weekend. Some of our events have separate entry prices, which are marked. Our competitions will be predominately run a swiss + top cut format.
What is Swiss + Top Cut?
In a Swiss + Top Cut format, everyone plays a set number of matches, and is paired with an opponent with the same win-loss record.
Based on final standings from Swiss, a select number of players advance to a single-elimination bracket where one loss results in elimination.
Here’s some of what you can expect…
// MAGIC: THE GATHERING
This year’s Leprecon has a host of Magic the Gathering offerings: major tournaments, drafting, and CEDH.
DRAFT
Leprecon will be hosting three Magic: The Gathering draft competitions over the weekend. Draft players open three M:tG packs each, and build a deck using the cards they draw.
Afterwards, they compete against each other’s deck for a chance to win a special prize. The competition format will be Swiss + Top Cut.
All players get to keep the cards they draw from their packs.
