The format for The Games Club Invitational was Rise of the Eldrazi Rotisserie Draft. Once the draft was completed the highest seeded player in the Top 8 Pod and the highest seeded Bottom 8 & 8 Frequent Player Pod formed a team. This was repeated for all the players with second highest players teaming up and so on. The structure for The Games Club Invitational was Two-Headed Giant Round Robin (with each team playing every other team). Points were then awarded based on the team's performance (win=3, draw=1 & lose=0). There will be another of The Games Club's Invitational tournaments held at the Magic 2011 "Local" Pre-release on Sunday, 11th July 2010. Invitations will be given to the Top 8 and 8 Most Frequent players according to The Games Club's WPN League (Rise of the Eldrazi) , that have participated in a minimum of 6 events. |
