Tomorrow (Saturday, April 23rd) will be a day for the history books here at Area 51 as we prepare to host the largest Magic the Gathering Tournament since we opened in 2008. Because of our rapid growth in becoming the #1 game store in Dallas Ft. Worth, Wizards (WotC) took notice and awarded us with the honor of hosting an event that only a few stores in the United States will have an opportunity to hold.
Registration will begin at 10:00am and the player's meeting will happen at 11:00am sharp. The event will be between 6-7 rounds of swiss followed by a top cut of 8 players. The winner will receive a qualified spot in the MtG Nationals event in Indianapolis where they will compete to represent Team USA at the world tournament. In addition, the winner will get a FREE weekend badge to Gen Con 2011. All members of the top 8 will receive pack prizes based on attendance.
Also, for the first time ever, Area 51 will be filming feature matches during the 4th-7th rounds and in the top 8 in our new Alien Club Member's Room that will be opening May 1st!
We hope that each of you will come out and participate in the event, but if not we will be posting the rounds and results as the event rolls on. To see it visit our forums on http://www.area51gac.com/ .
