Friday Night Magic – Pauper Commander

Many people (including Magic’s own Mark Rosewater) have been attributed to some variation of the the quote, “restriction breeds creativity”. Let’s put that idea to the test by placing a rarity restriction on our Commander players. In Pauper Commander, players must build a deck using only cards that have been printed at the common rarity, which is denoted with a black set symbol on the card. The only exception is their Commander, which must be a legendary creature (or other legendary card that specifically says it can be your Commander) that has been printed at the uncommon rarity, which has a silver set symbol.

5:30pm – Registration begins for any players that did not sign up ahead of time through our website.

6:00pm – Round 1 begins! There will be two 90 minute rounds. During each round, players will earn points through an achievement system. A player’s total accumulated points will determine their placing at the end of the event.

Around 9:00pm – Prizes are awarded. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will receive Booster Packs. 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th place will receive Promo Packs. All participants will also get a promotional Magic card, and a Missing Pawn card they can use during our Piecing It Together events on Sundays.
