The champ is even allowed an additional free reserved seat, to bring a friend or companion to compete alongside them at Worlds.

Sooooo if anyone ends up with an extra Obi Wan card I would love to trade you for it or something. I need it.

Also if you win, pick a wampa or ugnaught or something as your Alt Art. XD

No offense to Rogue, but let's see an alternate art for Blaise.

Haha i was just kidding. I think it would be funny to do a card that doesn't get used.

Though in all seriousness I would have to pick an AA Davith or Chopper. Since Davith is still my favorite figure to play with in Skirmish, and Chopper is just one of my favorite characters.

So who's going? Last time I checked, of the 140 seats only 26 were booked.

There's a pretty solid group of about 10 of us from France that are coming. From what I can tell I think there are 36 registered in total so far.

That's a pretty baller alt-art.

I'll have to keep my eyes open for some second hand trades.

That Obi-Wan card?

So I'm a bit confused about this part:

Quote

• The European Championship is held at the Premier Tournament Tier, used for elite competitions. It will utilize the same Product Legality Policy as events in North America.

Does this mean that the new wave (Hera, BT, Jawa, etc.) will be legal, as they will be in North America after May 22nd? Or does it simply mean that the 11-days-after-release policy holds, with 'release' being whichever date the wave arrives in Europe?

Release date in UK is may 18th, so it will be legal
