ANZ Super Series

EPIC Ipswich has hosted many Wednesday Night Pioneer nights over the past couple of weeks to varying success. If you haven't turned up frequently, now is the best time to do so. The ANZ Magic Super Series is right around the corner and our store qualifiers for finals is Wednesday the 31st of October.

What is the ANZ Magic Super Series?

A new program for Magic the Gathering for the Australian and New Zealand region. The finalists all receive win cash prizes and invites to the Magic Pro Tour - in essence, the world championships for Magic the Gathering.

The program is run in cycles with the first being Store Qualifiers. Players may partake in as many qualifiers as they like with the store qualifiers allowing the following formats: Standard, Pioneer, Modern or Sealed.

Rules Enforcement Level (REL) for the Super Series is Competitive REL, meaning decklists must be submitted and expect random deck checks throughout your events.

The Finals has one format - Pioneer Constructed, and this is why EPIC Ipswich has dedicated our event to Pioneer to best train our local players.

Is there a point to competing if I don't want to go to the protour or finals?

ABSOLUTELY! Everyone who participates will receive a Lava Spike alt art promo. The top 8 players from each store will receive an alt art Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx promo and the winner receives a foiled Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx promo! So yes there's incentive to compete.

Pioneer at EPIC

Pioneer will hopefully continue past the point of our Store Qualifiers and will be run using swiss pairings in Eventlink. Our store qualifier will cost $25 to enter to help cover the cost of the event and we will even have one of our most beloved Card Dealers back in store to support the event!

So come in each Wednesday at 6:30 PM for our weekly Pioneer and train up to battle against the best in Australia and potentially the world.

Your Friend and Ally,

Lachy

The website got a facelift

It has been busy busy busy behind the scenes here at EPIC Ipswich over the past fortnight. Prep work for the Benevolent Owners shared vacation, juggling the change in the store's layout, new til systems, new television menus, and becoming increasingly popular. This isn't even factoring in the change in menu, or the upcoming events planned. We have been busy and you can trust I'll give you, loyal readers, a store update once we get time. In the meantime, our website has been updated by yours truly. When I first did the original website home page I had the essential elements, with a lot of my working hours, I've been making the website more streamlined and more friendly to our bandwidth. Please note, that the game pages are still to be updated to provide you more information about what we do here. In the mean time, anticipate big things on the horizon. I saw some streaming gear in the offices.... I suspect it will have something to do with videos on the social media end....

What is Adventurers League?

Adventurers League is a standardised and regulated form of Dungeons & Dragons . It uses the rules as written in the official D&D books, so you don't need to worry about any homebrew rules. Character creation is limited to the Players Handbook and one other source, which means you don't have to worry about anyone making characters that are too game-breaking, as well as all the possible worlds you can end up in are all published D&D settings To put it simply, Adventurers League takes all of the guesswork out of D&D. The stories are already written, the rules are plainly outlined, and everything is structured. So it is a great place to learn as a player and even as a Game Master Each session is a short self-contained 2-4 hour story, though some will make callbacks to other stories you won't miss much if you can only come in once a fortnight instead of every week, unlike other games where it always feels like when you miss one session you end up missing ...
