The EPIC Syndicate is proud to announce their first in what hopes to become a regular series of events!

Who: The EPIC Syn, and everybody else too.

What: A DLD bigger than any before. Entry fee is $30. This is to compensate for additional prizes. As you will see, the top 16 players will walk out with at least their entry fee back.

Where: Oswego, NY. Exact location to be announced soon. Oswego is close to both Rochester and Syracuse. We should have plenty of places for people to crash also.

When: 11 am, October 7, 2007. This is a Sunday, but also a 3 day weekend thanks to Mr. Columbus. Travel should be easy due to the long weekend, and I think everybody has enough notice, no excuses not to be here.

Why: Because we wanna have a kickass tourney.

Prize support, bigger and better!!! Duals will be GUARANTEED, ON HAND, AND IN GOOD SHAPE. I heard someone at a dual land draft a while ago complain because they picked Seas, and then were bummed because they were in crappy shape. I can't guarantee mint condition, but they won't be beat.

Obviously since this is a DLD, there will be the standard 40 dual lands up for grabs. There will also be 10 more prizes offered. Because of the added prizes, they will go all the way to top 16. That's right, TOP 16 PRIZES!!! No draft sets here either, real prizes!

Here's the way it'll go down, After X rounds of swiss, top 8 will be announced, along with 9-16. Top 8 will have a playoff for their picks, 9-16 will be based upon standings because playing a top 16 takes too friggin long. Here's the way the prizes will go.

1st place-1st pick and 9th pick
2nd place- 2nd pick and 10th pick
3rd place-3rd pick and 11th pick
4th place- 4th pick and 12th pick
5th place- 5th pick
6th place- 6th pick
7th place- 7th pick
8th place- 8th pick
9-16 get picks 13-20 in order by standings.

This means that there will be a normal dual land draft, plus 10 more picks given out.

Here are some of our ideas for the extra prizes, these aren't set in stone, but this is what the prizes will resemble.

Here's some of our ideas:
4x Wasteland
4x Meddling Mage
4x Fetchland
2x Beta STP
4x Beta Bolt
4x Survival of the Fittest
4x Chrome Mox

Hopefully most of the top 16 will get their money back with these prizes, and anybody has a shot at top 16, so you don't have to be a top player to walk out with a good prize.

As the location is not set in stone, I cannot account for all of our expenses yet. The duals are guaranteed to be given out, and I will update eventually what number we will need to get for the top 16 prizes.

More details to come!!!

Oh wow, sounds like a great tourny. I just might have to make some lazy people down here in VA come up with me to this place.
