The link to the discord server where the event will take place is below (if you’ve never joined this discord server before, please be sure to enter it at least once before the tournament starts!):
At least 1 hour before the event begins, participants will be granted access to the World Discord Cup related channels within the English speakers section of the above server. Please try to login at least 10 minutes before the event and say “Here” in the worlddiscordcup-chat channel of the World Discord Cup section to confirm your participation.
The format will be Swiss Draw, 3 to 5 rounds depending on number of players, and each match will be resolved by best of 3 (each match will consist of up to 3 games, until 1 player wins twice or the timer runs out). Please note that if not enough players show up, we may switch to a Round Robin format. This tournament will not have any player elimination, so all players are welcome to play in all rounds regardless of their match results.
For the interest of encouraging the diversity of participating decks, the deck level cap for the ruler 〈2. B – Berserker〉 will be reduced from 120 points to 100 points for this tournament. Thank you for your understanding.
Please note that only cards currently available in English are legal (which includes up to Booster Set 5). Cards that do not have an English counterpart available are not. (Cards with collector numbers starting with 2023GBB and 2023GS05 that are not reprints of older cards, along with any Set 6 advance promos, are not usable. On the other hand, the new cards in the Draconoid Destruction!/竜型決戦兵器 and Alice & Ascendants Alliance/アリス覚醒者 starter decks are now legal!)

1st Place: a promotion card version of 《Renaissance》 marked “WINNER”, an alternate art promotion card version of 《Fleira, Demon Princess of the Black Sword》, and an alternate art promotion card version of 《Rite of Redirection》.
