Duelists, prepare for battle!

NYCYDC presents its own monthly competitive Swiss tournament to give members a feel of what it’s like to partake in locals, Regionals and even YCS!

These tournaments are far from casual as duelists will bring their very best and strongest decks to compete. A test of skills and wit, expect a tough competition.

These monthly tournaments will follow advanced format rules such as 50 minute matches and double loss time rules.

Official tournament start time will be 3:30pm. Arrive early to prepare!

Rules:

  1. As per tournament rules, you must play 1 deck from start to finish. Switching decks will result in a penalty such as a game loss. Failure to comply will result in a disqualification from the tournament.

  2. Arrive on time and be ready for your match! If you are not present for the first 5 minutes of your match you will receive a game loss. After 10 minutes you will receive a match loss. Time is sacred!

  3. Sportsmanship and respect is mandatory. If we receive complaints of disrespect and misconduct you will receive a warning. A second offense will result in a disqualification.

  4. There will be judge(s) present. Any conflict at during a match or question must be resolved with a judge.

  5. Double loss will be applied. If a match winner has not been decided and declared by the end of the timer, both players will receive a double loss.

  6. Slow play of any kind will not be tolerated. If you believe your opponent is slow playing, don’t hesitate! Call the judge! A judge will deal with the matter at hand.

  7. Focus on your match! No devices should be present unless it’s to count LP! Don’t distract other duelists from their match as well.

  8. No backseat dueling or request for assistance! Learn your deck and play on your own! If we catch you asking for advice you will receive a warning.

The most important rule of any tournament is to have fun!

IMPORTANT: Respect your RSVP! You must RSVP in order to participate. If you show up you’re expected to participate as a player.
