For the first of three Store Championship events we welcome back the Archon Format!

ARCHON

The Archon format pits a player’s single Archon deck against the chosen deck of the opponents. Which will be the deck to rule all decks?

Players Must Bring:

One KeyForge Archon deck from any set deemed legal by the tournament organizer. The Archon deck must be complete and unmodified.

Qualifying Rounds:

Archon format tournaments use the Playstile 2LO structure and are played over a series of qualifying rounds, with each round featuring any number of two-player matches, and each match consisting of one game.

Players are eliminated after losing two matches, also known as “two loss out (2LO).”

Qualifying rounds continue until a predetermined number of players make the top cut (usually eight players). The size of the top cut and the number of qualifying rounds needed to reach it depend on the number of players at the beginning of the tournament.

Finals:

After concluding the qualifying rounds, the remaining players who have qualified for the top cut proceed to the finals. The finals consist of single-elimination matches until only two players remain.

The final match is played as a best-of-three series. In other words, for the match to be resolved, players continue to play games until one player has won two games.
