Auctionstone: A Custom-Format Wild Tournament (July 18)

Auctionstone: A Custom-Format Wild Tournament (July 18)

Howdy! Howdy! Howdy!

I’m going to be running a special wild tournament on the NA server at 10:00 UTC on Saturday, July 18 (that’s 5pm Chicago time, 8am Sunday in Canberra).

I'll also be running an EU edition at 14:00 UTC on Sunday, July 19!

This is going to be a Bo5 conquest tournament with a twist - instead of having the entire wild pool to work with, you and your fellow players will be given points to bid on curated lots of cards from Hearthstone’s history. Then, you’ll construct your decks out of Core cards and anything you won at the auction, with any leftover points allowing you to buy extra cards to flesh out your decks, at a reduced rate.

This tournament’s lots include everything from classics like the Old Gods, to non-Reno highlander payoffs, to Violet Hold rulebreakers, to niche packages like Kingpin Pud and the Ogre-Gang.

So if you’d like to experience a low-power wild Hearthstone tournament, with guaranteed deck diversity, check out our Battlefy page. Registration will be open until the 13th, so come on in, place your bids, and see what you can build!

For any questions, dm me or ask in the comments below.

Auctionstone 2: A "Card Auction" Tournament (May 23)

Hello^(3), all! I'm going to be running a custom-format constructed wild Hearthstone tournament on the NA server, on May 23, 20:00 UTC. Registration is open now.

The shtick of this tournament, as the name suggests, is that your cards have to be won at auction. You'll be given points to bid on curated lots of cards (similar to Dungeon Run or Arena buckets) from across Hearthstone's history, including plenty of selections from recent years. Any points not spent on a winning bid will be refunded to you, allowing you to purchase cards outright, albeit at a greatly reduced rate.

Then, you'll build three decks from among the Core set, the cards you've won at auction, and any you've crafted with leftover points, and face your fellow bidders in a best-of-five conquest tournament!

If you're interested in learning more, check out the Battlefy page or ask in the comments below. We've got five players already and we're hoping for at least 1-3 more. All skill levels are welcome, and while it is a wild tournament, players with Standard collections should find it fairly accessible (even more so if they haven't dusted their Year of the Raptor cards yet).

Auctionstone 2: A "Card Auction" Tournament (May 23)

Hello^(3), all! I'm going to be running a custom-format constructed wild Hearthstone tournament on the NA server, on May 23, 20:00 UTC, and registration is open now.

The shtick of this tournament, as the name suggests, is that your cards have to be won at auction. You'll be given points to bid on curated lots of cards (similar to Dungeon Run or Arena buckets) from across Hearthstone's history, including plenty of selections from recent years.

Then, you'll use the Core set and anything you won at auction, and build decks for a three-deck Conquest tournament. With the knowledge that no two players have the same cards to work with, can you come up with a strategy to ensure victory?

There's only one way to find out! Let me know if you're interested (either in DMs or the comments below) and I'll invite you to the discord where you can learn more. I hope to see you there, and happy bidding!
