The overall rules are pretty much the same as the Swiss stage of CotCOOSDC, and are described in the main rule's thread of that tournament (linked here).
Deck building tools can be found here (new link!!). Your personal code is the same (Wildcard winner will use Wildcard Cardpool and Code).
Participants will have access to the 21 boosters with which they reached Round 7 of Swiss Stage (or ended Wildcard), and will receive 3 added boosters for this Finals!!
With the Personal Code they have received in the beggining, the Finalists will access to their card pool, will pick up a decklist and submit it in the CotCOOSDC tool, as usual, in order to be ready to participate in the Grand Finals.
IMPORTANT:
You don't have to submit a new decklist if you are ok with the one you used for Round 7, and if you don't want to use the cards of the 3 added boosters that you received.
However, a very important twist of this stage is that you will also be able to change your hero, if you want, to any hero that is part of your new 24 booster card pool.
(this is quite important... who knows how many players will decide to change his hero for the Finals?!)
Brackets can be viewed here, and are directly related with the seed positions of the Swiss Stage, as placed above.
Meaning that 1st will play 16th, 2nd will play 15th, and so on.
MAIN CORE RULES:
1. Grand Finals is a Single Elimination Best of Three Tournament.
2. Hero and deck lock throughout the tournament, according to decklist submitted for it.
3. All participants must join the #tournament IRC channel, 15 minutes before the tournament starts (hour still to be designated).
4. Players that fail to show up online until 15 minutes past the designated time, will be replaced by a Reserve that is present, in the order stated above.
5. The starting player of each game of each matchup is randomly chosen for games one and three, if needed. The player who went first in game one will go second in game two.
6. Results should be reported through the IRC channel as soon as matchups end.
7. If a game ends in a draw, it must be repeated, with the same order of starting turns.
8. A sync error will have to be replayed with the same order of starting turns, unless a player concedes.
9. A frozen game will have to be replayed with the same order of starting turns, unless a player concedes.
10. If a player is disconnected during a game, the victory goes to the other player unless BOTH players agree to replay or a player concedes.
11. Any exceptions to this rules, not predicted here, will be determined on the run, by TO.
PRIZES:
I will now remember the prizes for this big event: the CotCOOSDC!!!
Grand Prize (1st place) = Complete physical set of CotC Cards, including one of each physical foil; invite to WC2013; 10,000SC; custom forum title
2nd on Final Stage = 5000SC
3rd on Final Stage = 2500SC
Top 8 (4th to 8th) (on Final Stage) = 500SC
Top 32 (on Swiss Stage + WildCard winner) = 200 garanteed SC (if you get Top 8 or better, you will get the corresponding prize, and not this one)
Note: If any of the two finalists already invited for the WC2013 wins this Finals (Jacqui or Monomax), the invite will go to the defeated finalist.
FINAL STANDINGS WILL BE PLACED IN THIS THREAD, UP TO 32ND POSITION, AFTER THE END OF THE GRAND FINALS!!
Any doubts, please feel free to ask.
Good luck to all of you, guys!!
