Cryptozoic Entertainment posted the 2011 Organized Play Schedule for the World of Warcraft TCG: Scourge War including the Darkmoon Faire, World Cup, Continental Championships and the World Championship.
To boot we have a preview of the AWESOME Darkmoon Faire Playmat reward featuring the Lich King.
Darkmoon Faire
Though Cryptozoic Entertainment is anchored in Irvine, CA, the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game community spans the globe. We fly our merry band around the world each year with the Darkmoon Faire tournament circuit, putting up thousands of dollars in prizes in the main event alone. If you want a Spectral Tiger Loot card, this is the best way to win one! The DMF is an entire weekend of festivities, a variety of tournaments kicking off each day with every type of player in mind. This is for our community; no matter what your skill level or dedication, there’s an event for you at the Darkmoon Faire.
World Cup
It’s three-on-three for national pride! We’ll have our full tournament announcement in the coming month, but we do have some facts to share now. It’s a three-day event, and you’ll register a team on Day 1 with two of your fellow countrymen. You’ll compete on Day 1 individually (you won’t play one another) and each country’s top scoring team advances to Day 2, as well as at least 10 of the next top scoring teams overall. You’ll then complete on Day 2 and Day 3 with your team to determine who wins the World Cup. And the grand prize—a total purse of $100,000 in prizes—let’s just say you’ve never had a chance to win something like this!
Continental Championships
The summer of 2011 marks the first time we’ll offer Continental Championships in North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia! Everyone is invited to play. Top finishers will win tens of thousands of dollars in prizes over the weekend, as well as an invite to play in the World Championship. Each Continental Championship weekend will also host a Darkmoon Faire main event and side events.
World Championship
Amsterdam! Cryptozoic is taking you to the Netherlands for the 2011 World Championship. We’re providing over $250,000 cash (€ equivalent), and $50,000 to our World Champion. Buy a car or a house. This is life-changing money! It’s the biggest tournament of the year, and Cryptozoic will provide many ways for players to qualify. It’s a party and we want you with us in Amsterdam. Compete in the World Champoinship, Darkmoon Faire main event, or side events: we’re going to end 2011 with a blast!
