Sanctioned Vintage continues to be a great success, and will return on October 7th at Scholars, the home of the longest running weekly Vintage series anywhere. The community has done a fantastic job supporting these events, and they're the perfect place to practice before Vintage Champs. Extra players directly increase the prize pool, so the more the merrier.
The highest finishing Unpowered Deck* will receive a prize, so the value is insane. Last time, we had an Unpowered deck make it all the way to the finals. The payday was insane. Will you be the next to pull off such a feat? Or will you be on the path of the powered decks, and the most broken plays available? Either way, it's an awesome time.
What do the prizes look like? Here are some examples:
Here is 16 players, with 2 or more unpowered:
cash prize credit prize
1st 105.6 140.8
2nd 79.2 105.6
3rd 39.6 52.8
4th 39.6 52.8
1st Unpowered 40 53.33
This is what 32 players, with two unpowered looks like:
cash prize credit prize
1st 227.2 302.93
2nd 170.4 227.2
3rd 85.2 113.6
4th 85.2 113.6
1st Unpowered 40 53.33
Now you're seeing that you can also choose cash as an option. Pretty useful for acquiring singles. I'll be there with a sick selection of the goodness you need to keep up your rep as a formidable spell slinger.
