New Test Tournament: Reunion

[UPDATE 10/18: The Reunion Test Tournament will now be available to players on Steam, Android, and iOS devices!]

This weekend brings our second test of Eternal‘s in-game tournament system: Reunion!

Reunion consists of two stages: A Qualifier Stage that’s open to everyone, and a Bracket Stage that will feature the top 32 players from the Qualifier.

This system test is in preparation for expanding Eternal‘s tournament system to include mobile players. For the first time, the tournament will be available to all players on Steam and on iOS and Android mobile devices!

[NOTE: As with all players on all devices, players choosing to participate in this event on mobile devices do so at their own risk. We cannot guarantee connectivity or signal strength, and any losses or problems arising from disconnects or similar issues will be treated as final.]

Here’s how it all works:

• All players across devices can participate in Reunion.
• The Qualifier Stage begins on Friday, October 19 at 11 am MDT (17:00 UTC) and will end on Saturday, October 20 at 11:59 pm MDT (6:00 UTC on October 21).
• Players can complete their games at any time during the Qualifier Stage; there is no benefit or penalty for playing early, late, or throughout the Stage.
• Each run consists of 6 games with the same constructed deck, win or lose.
• You can switch decks between runs, but not between individual games in a run.

• The deck you play in the Bracket Stage does not need to be one you played during the Qualifier Stage.
• Decklists from the Bracket Stage will not be posted until after the event concludes.
