+++ Be prepared for more! It's happening! +++

n00bcon 2025

We start at 12.30 sharp - the time schedule is tight. Expect eight gruelling rounds of swiss followed by a thrilling top8. Rounds in the swiss are 55 minutes. The top8 is un-timed, but expected to be played at a reasonable pace. We have an Artist around! Jeff Menges will join the ranks, AS Alters will also be at the stage.

!!! Very Important !!!

There is no cash, only card payment possible at the main event (completely different than 2024).

Questions Asked

Rule enforcement?

We play using the current comp rules, nothing added or removed. The rule enforcement level is "Don't be a douche". It is very close to REL-Competative. Notable exceptions from REL-Professional:

Reprints and alters?

Artist alterations of cards in legal sets are ok as long as you can read the full name of the card and its mana cost. Just make sure that your opponent knows what cards you are playing. The three first printings of The Gathering are legal; 1st Edition "Alpha", 1st Edition "Beta", and 2nd Edition "Unlimited". Due to popular demand, the 1994 summer printings of The Gathering 3rd Edition distributed in Ireland and Tenesse (populary known as "Summer Magic" or "Edgar") are also legal. The decks cannot contain "proxie cards" of any sort.
