-The tournament will consist of a number of rounds of Swiss based on attendance (4-8 players = 3 rounds, 9-16 players = 4 rounds, 17+ players = 5 rounds). Each round will be a 30-minute best-of-one-game match. End-of-round procedure is an additional 5 minutes added to the game OR three additional full turns, whichever finishes first. If a game has not concluded by this point, the player with more cards in their Shield Area (base + shields) wins. If this number is tied, the player with the higher deck count wins. If deck count is tied, players may use a random method to determine the winner.

-Each player will receive a ST05-015 Isaribi promo for participation. Additional prizes are awarded at the conclusion of the tournament based on final standing and match points (scored 3 points per win, 0 points per loss) as follows:
