Hey Runners and Corporations, now that Worlds is over, I’m sure y’all are itching for the next big event. Many places will have their National Championships happening well into the new year; however, we’re announcing a big online event, hosted on Jinteki.net:
The 2019 Eternal Championship
What is Eternal?
Eternal is the wild west of organised play. Rotation never happened here, and only a small number of cards are banned.
Eternal MWL 1.2
| Corp – Removed | Runner – Removed |
|---|---|
| 24/7 News Cycle | Aaron Marrón |
| Friends in High Places | Bloo Moose |
| Hired Help | Faust |
| Rumor Mill | |
| Salvaged Vanadis Armory | |
| Şifr | |
| Temüjin Contract | |
| Watch the World Burn |
Old classics such as Whizzard, Engineering The Future, Noise, Andromeda, Account Siphon, Jackson Howard, and Scorched Earth return in this format. So be prepared for high-powered matches full of cards that have long since left Standard!
Times
Going off your feedback with our usual A and B Swiss events, we’ll be using this event to try out back-to-back Swiss on the Saturday with the cut on Sunday. This should help people who can only commit to one weekend.
- Swiss A – 30th Nov – Check in starts 11:00 UTC
- Swiss B – 30th Nov – Check in starts 18:00 UTC
- Top 8 Cut – 1st Dec – 13:00 UTC
Swiss A and Swiss B will each consist of 4 rounds of Swiss, followed by a tiebreaker round, if necessary. The top 4 from each Swiss round will go through to the top 8 cut.
As always, please check https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/ to confirm these times in your timezone.
Despite Swiss A and B being on the same day, players may still only play in one Swiss.
