To join the Tournament you will need an AetherHub user, log in and sign in at the top of the page. You do not need to deliver a decklist when signing up, this may change in the future. We will accept your attendance 10 minutes before the tourney starts!
Input your MTG Arena nick! Yes, it is case sensitive, copy it from within the game and do not manually type it in. Nick can be changed at a later point by opening Account -> Edit Profile
Pairings and delivering results happen within the browser during the tournament date. For more details on how this works, have a look at this article: How to Participate in an AetherHub Tourney
For how long does it run?
Being a local tournament with only few players i would expect 3 rounds, so around 3h. You are free to drop out of the tourney at any point if you lose your rounds, but when doing so mark yourselves as dropped when you deliver the results for the round.
Tourney Rules
Before tourney start, open the host stream and the tournament web page.
Tourney Starts Promptly at the specified time. The streamer is live at least a half-hour before the start. If you have any questions this is a good time to ask.
Use the Twitch chat for your main communication as it is easiest for the Streamer to see what is going on there. When not playing keep the streamer unmuted as the next round will start as soon as everyone is finished.
Reporting scores happens on the webpage after each round, both players have to report the score, even if they lose. Not reporting might result in a drop from the tourney.
Put in your MTG Arena nick in the Game nick field when signing up. You can edit this later by clicking on "Account" and "Edit Profile" on the site. Failure to put in the correct nick results in a drop from the Tourney.
If your game crashes, you will be issued a loss since it is not possible to resume the match again.
Chat / Communicating with others
To communicate with other players use the Twitch chat of the Streamer. It makes it easier for the Streamer / Host to follow all messages.
Tournament Process
Once the first pairings have been determined you will find your opponent on the tourney webpage. The row in which your pairing is will be highlighted. The game nick of your opponent will be displayed. However, if you need to voice a complaint, please do so in the Twitch stream chat.
When Pairing against your opponent, use these settings:
Challenge Match
Deck Type - 60 Cards
Format - Best of Three
Coin Flip
If your opponent didn't show up after the 10 minute period when the timer reaches 40mins left: Give yourself 2 wins and checkmark the box that says no show on your opponent.
If you have determined that you've played enough and want to drop out of the tournament, please make sure to go back to the results page and checkmark the box that is labeled self drop.
Intentional draws are written as 0-0-3. There is usually not anything to gain on doing this since there is no cut to top 8 plays. If you have played a match and then want to draw, you write it as 1-1-1 instead.
This is a free community tourney and is open for everyone, be a good sport when playing. Leave the salt in the kitchen.
