Pre-release tournaments are special events that allow players to preview new card game expansions before their official release. During these events, participants receive booster packs containing the new cards and use these cards to build a deck and compete.

Sealed Deck format

Description:

In the Sealed Deck format, each player receives a set number of booster packs (usually six). With the cards obtained, players build a deck with a minimum of 40 cards.

Specific Rules:
  • It is not permitted to exchange cards received in booster packs with other players during the event.
  • The deck must only include cards received in booster packs and Don cards provided by the organizers.
  • It is recommended to bring card sleeves and a set of dice or markers to keep track of the game.
