Tukholmassa järjestetään tammikuun alussa Magic-turnaus/tapahtuma Scandinavian Open. Tässä turnausjärjestäjien tarjoamat infot Lontoon murteella:
What is Scandinavian Open?
Scandinavian Open is what we hope will become a milestone in the development of the Nordic Magic community. We want to make sure that theres something besides Wizards-run events to look forward to. We want this to be the beginning of something like a Nordic StarCityGames Open series or a Bazaar of Moxen.
To make this happen, we are working with some of the greatest Magic actors in the Nordic area: SvenskaMagicförbundet, Dragons Lair, Vasa Gaming and SvenskaMagic. Together with these great organizations we are working to bring you something out of the ordinary.
Scandinavian Open is a non-profit event and will consist of a large main tournament as well as side events, workshops, seminars, casual play and much more.
The main event will be a two day event. Weve chosen to run it as limited so that everyone can participate regardless of how many cards they own. Sealed deck for day 1 where the ones who performed the best will go on to day 2. Day 2 will consist of drafts as well as a top 8 that also will be run as draft.
Prizes?
We will base the prizes on the participation numbers. The more players show up, the more cool prizes will be added to the prize pool.
Of course we want to add an incentive. So regardless of participation, we guarantee some prizes. There will be at least a piece of power 9 plus reasonable prizes for the rest of the top 8.
So the more of your friends you get to tag along and participate, the more awesome prize support. It also increases the chances that we can get this to be the start of more of this kind of fun events.
Where and when?
Scandinavian Open will take place the 3-6 January at the MY:2014 fair at Stockholm International Fairs. We will be in the NärCon venue.
