Midlands Netrunner Regionals 2024

Sheffield, November 2023. As UK Nationals come to an end, 100 or so of the country’s most infamous Net Runners and their associates begin to drift back to their home bases across the islands, their enhanced brains swimming with thoughts of future Organised Play. They do not know it yet, but a handful of these intrepid Cyber Punks will soon be drawn into a shadowy conspiracy of plots, schemes, and cool alt-arts. Their locations are various; their means, mysterious. But their motive is clear: to bring new life to the UK Netrunner scene with a series of community-run Regional Championships!

What's this event about?

The event will be using the Standard cardpool with the most recent banlist. We will be using Single Sided Swiss, so each round will be 40 minutes long, and you will only play one game.

This is a competitive-level event, but with slightly shorter tournament structure due to only having one day to run the event. Unless we get significantly fewer or more players than expected, we will be playing six rounds, followed by a single-elimination cut to top 8.

As always, proxies will be legal at this tournament. If you need any last-minute printing, reach out to us with a list of cards by 12pm on Friday 9th August, and we'll make sure they're ready for you on the day. Limited printing is avaible on-the-day for a fee.

Due to space at our venue, the cap for this event is STRICTLY 48 players! Please make sure you buy a ticket ASAP to avoid disappointment - leftover tickets will also be available first-come, first-served on the door.

Where are we playing?

We will be running nets at The Dice Cup - a fully-vegan, fully-accessible board game café in the heart of Nottingham (please no outside food or drink!) Due to the central location, tehre's lots of nearby parking - the store can validate your parking for 25% off if you park in the Victoria Center car park, or there's on-street parking about 5mins walk away on Peel Street. The Dice Cup is ~20mins walk from Nottingham Railway Station.

What can I win?

Exclusive prizing and promos are available to Regionals attendees, with big thanks to beloved UK artist Brindlemold! Additionally, the Midlands Regional will have additional prizing from our friends at The Tag Mill. Full details of prizing can be found on our Always Be Running page - remember to mark yourself as going!
