Commander League is back baby! It starts on Saturday September 9th and runs all the way through December 16th. Full schedule down below. Entry is $7 and you always get a pack. In casual pods one random player will get an extra pack. In competitive pods the winner will receive the extra pack. There will be more prizes at the end of the league for many more than just top 10. It’s always on Saturdays and its always at 3:30PM. Some important things to note is that “fast mana” is banned in casual pods with the exception of Sol Ring. Competitive pods may use any number of proxies so that they are legible, of decent quality and contain the correct rules/oracle text. Proxies may not be used in casual pods. The points system for casual remains, mostly, the same. In competitive we have tweaked the points so that people who only play in competitive pods will have a much greater chance at placing higher for the final prizes. If you would like a full list of the changes please get ahold of a Parallax employee or a Commander League Committee member. We got a bunch of fun themes planned this league and, as always, they are optional. Feel free to still just show up and play. In some cases the theme and non-theme players will need to be separated for when the themed players would have an unfair advantage. Here is the full schedule:
