Unrivaled
Play Games. Win Games. Trip to Vegas.
WoodForSheep is participating in the 2017 Unrivaled Tournament Series. By playing (and winning) any of the "Unrivaled" games, you have a chance to qualify for a trip to Vegas in October 2017, and compete to be the National Grand Champion (which comes with additional prizes, like cash).
For 2017, the "Unrivaled" games are:
Qualifying Rounds
From Saturday, June 17, 2017 to Sunday, July 9, 2017, come by the Game Centre to play a qualifying round for each of the games in this year's "Unrivaled". Standard sitting fees apply. One qualifying round per game per sitting fee. There must be at least 4 players participating for the round to count. Example:
- If you come on Friday, June 16 and play a game of King of Tokyo, this will not count since its outside of the qualifying dates.
- If you come on Saturday, June 17 and play 3 games of King of Tokyo, only one of those games will count.
- If you come on Saturday, June 17 and play 1 game of King of Tokyo, 1 game of Nevermore, 1 game of Ascension, all these rounds will count.
Don't know how to play any of these games? Play a 'learning' game first; we are more than happy to teach.
