Welcome back to the StarCityGames.com 2017 Season One Invitational
countdown blog!
Yesterday
, I did a brief overview of what to expect at the Season One Invitational,
but today is when I’ll really start diving into things. With the move to
Roanoke, our Invitationals are now massive events with a lot going on. From
awesome special guests and super-sweet side events to the chance to win an
invite to a Pro Tour and having your likeness immortalized on a custom-made
token, the Season One Invitational really is whatever you want to make out
of it. But in order to make the Season One Invitational a special event for
yourself, you need to become more familiar with what your options are!
Main Event Registration
Modern and Standard are the main event formats at the Season One
Invitational, so bring your most powerful deck from each format and prepare
for battle! By qualifying for a StarCityGames.com Invitational, you’ll be
rubbing shoulders with the best the SCG Tour has to offer while competing
for your chance to be the next Jacob Baugh!

Roanoke Open is a two-day tournament with nine rounds on Saturday, six more
on Sunday for those who make the Day Two cut, and eventually someone will
be walking out of the Berglund Special Events Center with $5,000, 35 SCG
points, and these are awesome registration rewards (which, of course,
everyone receives for entering the tournament)!

What Tomorrow Brings
Now that you know your options and what registration rewards come along
with each during your stay in Roanoke, it’s time to move on to the special
guests we’ll have in town. Tomorrow I’ll be introducing you to our Guest of
Honor, Rob Alexander, and the other artists who will be side by side with
him all weekend long, as well as how you can take a picture with a real
life version of Tireless Tracker! See ya then!
