One Piece TCG 2nd Anniversary OP09 Emperors in the New World Prereleases

THIS EVENT WILL HAVE A CAP OF 32 PLAYERS.

-$35.00 entry fee, due at the time of registration.

-This is a sanctioned Bandai event, so each participant will need to have a Bandai TCG+ account membership to register themself using the website or app. If you don't have one, you can create a free account here.

-The format is Sealed. Each player will receive a Luffy promo card, a 2nd anniversary Don promo card, a 2nd anniversary tournament pack, and six boosters of the new set from which they must build an exactly 40-card deck. Players should bring 10 of their own DON!! cards if possible and optionally may use any Leader from their collection for this event (including those from previous sets). Players can include as many copies of cards with the same card number as they like (there is no 4-card limit). Any cards left over from deck construction may be swapped with cards in the Main Deck between rounds.

-The following special rules are used in Sealed tournament matches:

• In Sealed Format. players can ignore deck color requirements based on their leader. All other card text restrictions still apply as normal, including effects listed on leaders when specifying names or colors of cards.

-The tournament will use Swiss pairing structure, capped at 4 rounds max (3-8 players = 3 rounds, 9-16 players = 4 rounds, 17-32 players = 5 rounds). Round 1 will start immediately after deck construction concludes. Each round will be a 35-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. Players may choose to intentionally draw (ID).
