We're holding a Pokemon TCG League Cup at Alternate Universes Wilmington on Sunday, December 1st! League Cups are Pokemon TCG Championship Series Events that are a step up from League Challenges, wherein players of any skill level vie to earn Championship Points. Once a player has earned enough Championship Points, they qualify for the Pokemon TCG World Championships!
We are awarding at least $1,000 store credit total to the Top 8 Masters Division players! Players also win Championship Points based on their final placement (see chart at the bottom of this post).
PRIZE SCALING: When we reach 34 Master players, we will add $30 store credit to their Top 8 prize pool for each additional player! For example, if we get 45 Master players, we'll add $330 store credit to the Masters prize pool! *NEW* If we have at least 30 players, top 9-16th will each get 4 packs of Surging Sparks!
Top Cut will be Top 8 if there are 15 or more players in that division. Otherwise it will be Top 4.
