Prizes: The winner of the tournament will receive a shiny new playmat with the artwork of Rathe from the original set of Warlord (by Llyn Hunter). One randomly selected new player to our tournaments (who has not participated in an online tournament since at least March of 2024) will be chosen to receive a sealed 20th Anniversary pack, containing 7 Warlords and 9 other cards not available in any other set, as well as 3 20th Anniversary Brine Fiends, in all their hideous glory!

Event Start: Wednesday 4/2/25 @ 10 PM Eastern Standard Time

Format: Ancients Format, spoiled 5E Warlords will be legal (found here).

Tournament Structure: Matched Swiss Pairs. Rounds will be a 3-per-week format. Rounds will be posted on Thursdays, Saturdays and Mondays. 5 or 6 preliminary rounds depending on numbers, then cut to an 8-player single-elimination bracket, with play-ins in case of ties.

The Ugly List: Ugly Ancients — Saga of the Storm - These Warlords have never known the thrill of a top 8 appearance. Can you make their dreams come true? These Warlords are also worth extra points in the Online Circuit rankings!

The Legendary List: If you’re on the player list, you can’t play a Warlord on the Warlord list!
