There is a reason we play TESL: we enjoy it (most the time). Some enjoy it by playing meme decks, others by finishing the best they could. Maybe both.
From time to time, we have tournaments: first Sunday, middle of month, end of month... we have many that repeat themself, and we have a few that doesn't. Like MrAquaman's tournament, which has not been finished yet and I apologize to him for not waiting any longer. Sadly, the time pushes me to announce the next tournament, for I will be offline for two weeks after Saturday. And so, I came here, and created a post. A post about what is yet to come.
2 qualifiers and a final stage. This is what I offer. I offer it to all players who are willing to try themselves. Without players, a tournament means nothing. I can create a discord server, I can print overlays, I can speak with 2 English-language casters if they are willing to lend their mouth for this tournament, but without you it was for nothing.
So I ask. I ask for advertisement. Do you stream? Do you chat in-game? Do you have 10 seconds to ask others if they will join the Summer Tournament? Oh, they didn't know there will be a tournament in August! Then point them to this post or just give them a link to the discord server!
I am no Bethesda. I can't offer money and I can't offer in-person matches. However, I can offer something else: a tournament. A tournament where each and every participant will get a 2-pack code just for playing - thanks to CVH and Bethesda. If you happen to move forward, to qualify for the final stage, then a 10-pack code. And I can offer you a stream.
I hope you haven't planned anything for the last 3 weekends of August.

RULES (last updated 24th of June - the rules here might be expired)
- RULE OF BUILDING
You must bring 4 decks of different classes, but only one of them is allowed to have more than 50% (50->25; 75->38) neutral cards in it.
- RULE OF SUBMISSION
You must send me the screenshot of your decks (English language preference) and the deckcodes through direct message 24 HOURS BEFORE TOURNAMENT STARTS. They will be uploaded in current tournament's # decklists before the tournament begins.
- RULE OF BANNING
Your opponent will ban one of your decks before first match – you must not play with it against your current opponent. You can declare your decision in current tournament's # bans like this: NightDarkWolf bans <Opponent>'s Warrior.
- RULE OF CONQUEST
The tournament is held in Conquest format: after you win with a deck, you must not play with it against your current opponent.
- RULE OF QUALIFICATION
In both qualifiers, the first, second and third place-finishers will qualify, but everyone playing will earn points. 2 more will qualify through having the most points. In case of a tie, the organizer (me) will give further instructions.
- RULE OF SILENCE
The participants must not speak outside of the server about the results of the matches they have played until the tournament was streamed – each player has to add me (NightDarkWolf), AnymRai and CoreData to their friendlist before the tournament starts, and we will be allowed to spectate (and stream) their matches.
- RULE OF MISQUEUEING
In case of a misqueue (queueing banned deck, a deck that has won before or a deck that was not assigned to said player) your opponent will decide if they want to hold it against you. In that case, they have won with their queued deck.
- RULE OF CHECK-IN
Half an hour before the tournament starts, a message will be posted in current tournament's # check-in. You must react with a checkmark to let me know you're here.
- RULE OF REPORTING MATCHES
A screenshot must be held for a week of the results of the matches. The winner submits a short message after last match in current tournament's # match-results like this: NightDarkWolf - <Opponent> / 3 - 2
- RULE OF TOP 8
Two of the quarterfinals, the semifinals and the finals itself will be recorded, therefore you must ask for my permission before going into a top 8 match. After you get it, you must wait in mulligan phase until I and the casters join as spectator. (There is a timer in mulligan phase - if we can't join until it goes down, wait in first turn!)
- RULE OF TIMER
The Turn Timer must be set on.
- RULE OF REPORTING
If there is a problem, you can report it in current tournament's # reports.
