    Fall Philadelphia Legacy Series Schedule
    August 23rd - Top Deck Games
    September 6th - Redcap's Corner
    October 18th - Alternate Universes - Blue Bell
    October 25th - Eternal Weekend - Legacy Champs

    The Philadelphia Legacy Series is a collaboration between three great Philadelphia-area game stores; Redcaps Corner, Alternate Universes, and Top Deck Games. We'll be running three $1,000 events, dozens of weekly events, and a championship at the Eternal Weekend. For most, playing Legacy is enough, but for those who want another incentive to participate, here it is! By playing in PLS events, you earn points towards a leaderboard that earns you 1 or 2 Byes at the Championship at Eternal Weekend!

    There are two different ways to earn points for the PLS leaderboard. Playing at any of the three weekly PLS events earn you 3 points for each win, 1 point for each draw, and 0 points for each loss. So if you go 2-2 in a weekly event, you would earn 6 points. Playing at the $1,000 events earn you points, but they carry a 6x multiplier, meaning you earn 18 points for each win, 6 points for each draw, and 0 points for each loss. Also, the $1,000 events tend to have more rounds (usually 5-7 swiss rounds plus three single-elimination rounds count towards your point totals).

    Here's what those points get you at the PLS Championship!

    1st) 2 Round Bye and Free Entry
    2nd) 2 Round Bye and Free Entry
    3rd) 2 Round Bye
    4th) 2 Round Bye
    5th) 1 Round Bye
    6th) 1 Round Bye
    7th) 1 Round Bye
    8th) 1 Round Bye

    Another Saturday, another 1K. Once again, first place gets you 2 byes into the October 25h Eternal Weekend Legacy Champs.

    Alternate Universes Blue Bell is hosting a Magic: the Gathering Legacy Tournament on Saturday, October 18th. This event is Grand Prix Trial for GP NJ. The winner earns byes at GPNJ. This tournament is also part of the Philadelphia Legacy Series (PLS). High finishes in this event count towards the 2015 PLS Championship for which you can earn byes and even free entry.

    TIME: Doors and registration open at 11:00AM. Play will begin at Noon

    COST: $25

    FORMAT: Legacy. Competitive REL. The number of Swiss rounds played is based on attendance. There will be a cut to Top 8 who will then play single elimination to determine the winner . The play/draw rule will be in use for the Top 8 so the higher seeds have the choice of whether to play or draw.

    PRIZES: (in store credit) 1st: $400 2nd: $200 3rd – 4th: $100 5th – 8th: $50 Prizes to be given out are based on attendance. This prize breakdown is based on 40 players. As always, 100% of the entry fees collected are put back into the prize pool.

    DOOR PRIZE: We will be giving away one From The Vault: Twenty as a door prize at this event. You must be entered into the tournament and have played at least one round to eligible for the random drawing. Must be present to win.
