We are building our vintage community!

I've talked to a lot of players who say they want to try out vintage but the difficulty in finding certain cards plus the complexity of the decks keeps them away. Knowing you won't do well in a tournament that has an average $25 entry fee is enough to keep a lot of potential players away. What I'm trying to do is show players just how fun vintage can be by offering a cheap way to learn the format.

We will be building several of the top tier decks here in the store for people to practice with so they can try out a few different things. This will be an unlimited proxy event so feel free to brew up literally anything and come test it out.

Prize support will be in the form of store credit for the top 4 in the amount that we take in for entry fees the following way. First place will get 50% of the entry fees, second will get 25% and third and fourth will each get 12.5%.

I hope to see some of you there!

Tommy, this sounds good.  If you do these semi regularly, we'll try to make it down whenever we can.

Best of luck to you! I'm doing the same model at my local store. We're having our second game this Sunday. I look forward to seeing your results Smile

I'm going to try to do three of these (one a month)  and then have a big one for a Time Walk in June.

I've got a car of at least 4 headed to this, and likely a second car as well

What's the expected turnout, you think?

Honestly, anywhere from 10 to 30. If everyone who says they are coming show up it'll be a full house. Realistically, I'm guessing 12-16. However many people show up I have a tough choice to make. Do I play a good deck or do I play the deck I have more fun with? Decisions decisions....

So my understanding is it's okay to use magiccard.info proxies as long as the whole deck and sideboard are done in this fashion, is that correct?
Do I need to glue the proxies to magic cards or is it okay to slip?
