This seams like fun. Do we have to pay texens to enter for either of them? When do these tournaments start sign ups?

Where's the sign up thread? I have just the idea for this

Just a question, why not include Shards? It will be standard in 4 days.

awesome idea on the O.S.S, but before we go any further with it, there is one HUGE detail that you missed. How are we going to handle ante cards? The idea is to play this with the closest possible feel to classic, which means that we cant leave them out. But, we would also have to make/submit new decklists if we were going to keep and remove cards.

A possible solution would be to play ante as normal within the match and then restore decks between games/matches. Lemmie know when you figure out how your gonna handle that, cause im 100% interested in it and will start deckbuilding ....in a few minutes

Very nice and exciting reading, Tynion


It was unclear, though, whether the tournament would start with the current Standard cardpool (Coldsnap to Eventide) or with the Unlimited set...
I may not be able to play that one, but I sure wish I could!

Well, the Big Deck Tourny is a Texen Payout tournament. So it is not OSS, I just included it into the article since I was running low on words

I will begin the sign up threads for the two tournaments now.

@ Ante Cards: Let me think about them Neo... I honestly had forgotten all about them. I will get an answer to you in the next few days. Thanks for the question.
