Victoria, B.C. GottaCon 2012 Magic: The Gathering Events Lineup

By Dan Erickson, in Support

Amazing Value This Year!

Once again Yellowjacket Comics and Toys along with a team of certified DCI judges will be running our Magic: The Gathering events at GottaCon 2012. Yellowjacket, spearheaded by Nelson Salahub, and the team are sure to deliver an exciting lineup of events and prizes. Also this year we have confirmed convention support from Wizards of the Coast which has allowed us to deliver some extra great events with cool prizes! The prize payout structure will be announced in the next week or two.

We will have numerous Dark Ascension launch parties and related events with promos as Yellowjacket, Skyhaven Games and Dice Bag Games will all have their launches at GottaCon 2012. Nelson and the team will bring experience and professionalism which are sure to attract an excellent turnout for these events.

As mentioned above Wizards of the Coast is supporting our convention (thank you Wizards!) and as a result we will be hosting three additional events this year as well as introducing an advanced ticket purchase incentive at select retail locations. These events are a Mini Master tournament, an all weekend Intro Deck Duels event and Gunslinging. These new events in combination with the promotional offer described below offer fantastic value for the cost of the Magic: the Gathering weekend pass. How these special events work is included in the event descriptions below.

The Magic the Gathering weekend pass this year will cost $60 taxes included and will include the following:
- Full weekend pass to GottaCon 2012 (valued at $35)
- Entry into the VIMC MTG Open event which consists of one FNM Standard Constructed event and one Sealed Dark Ascension Launch Event (valued at $40)
- Free entry into the Mini Master event (valued at ($5)
- Free entry into the Intro Duel Deck event (valued at $10)

As you can see the value of the MTG weekend package is very good and we hope you are all as excited as we are…but wait there is more…
