What you will need:

• A deck of 60 cards stamped F - H (this can be seen in the bottom left corner). Older cards that have had more recent (in rotation) reprints may be used. For new starters, we would recommend using a recently released starter deck, these can be purchased on the day if required, as there are rules to what a deck can be made up with. After this, you can customise with all the cards you have at home!
• Whilst not essential, Deck Sleeves are highly recommended in order to keep your cards safe, damaged or marked cards will be disallowed.

Rules:

• All people 16 and under will need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian OR have written permission to be on site. please contact us beforehand if this is the case.
• Food and opened drinks need to be consumed away from cards. if you have a bottle with a cap, you may have it with you as long as it is sealed between drinks.
• Keep all hands to ourselves, and away from other people's items and cards unless given permission.
• No squabbles, any disagreements should be brought to the attention of the person in charge.
• Excitement is good! But disruptive behavior is not, please refrain from shouting over others.
• We will be looking to play the Standard Format, and so cards stamped E and later will need to be used. Guidance on this can be given if required.
