Decklist Submission for Tournament Organizers

Set up decklist requirements, open submissions, and review or add player decks.

Enable and Disable Decklist Submission

Decklist submission can be enabled to allow players to submit the decklist they are going to use during an event. This can be configured both during event creation and after an event has been created. It can be manually disabled or configured to close at a certain time. Late decklist submissions can also be allowed.

Important Note

Enabling decklist submissions for an event will not prevent players from joining an event without submitting a decklist, nor will players who have not submitted a decklist be automatically dropped from events with decklists enabled.

Instead, Tournament Organizers can manually confirm player decklist submissions in the Players tab and, if necessary, change a player's Registration Status from Registered to Canceled (before starting the event) or Dropped (after starting the event).

  1. On the Admin Dashboard, create a new event
