This event features a special Commander variant with unique rules.
All players will advance across the map together, utilizing the treasure Smaug has hoarded in the "Lonely Mountain" to gain an advantage in the game.
■ Before the game begins, shuffle the treasure deck and place a marker on the "Shire" space on the map.
■ At the start of each player's upkeep, that player chooses one effect indicated by the map's current location.
Once all players have begun their turns at the current location, the marker is moved to the next location.
When the group reaches the "Lonely Mountain," all players remain at that location until the game ends.
○ Event Participation Notes
Participation is on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please note that the maximum number of participants may change depending on seating availability.
The event will proceed if there are at least 3 participants.
The time limit for each round is 70 minutes.
Two rounds will be held.
*We recommend using Bracket 3.
○ Event Structure
Participants will be divided into groups of 3–4 to play two games of Commander (a 5-player game will only occur if there are exactly 5 participants). You may change decks between rounds.
If there are sufficient participants, pairings will be determined based on the bracket that matches each player's desired style of gameplay.
For details regarding brackets, please refer to
this article.
Before each game, there is a 5-minute period to align deck power levels and Commander choices (often called "Rule 0"), followed by a 70-minute match, for a total of 75 minutes. If the game does not conclude within the allotted time, play continues until the stack is empty or another 10 minutes have passed. If the game still has not ended by then, the player with the highest life total wins (in the event of a tie, the winner is the player seated furthest back in the turn order).
Once a winner is determined, the participants at the table should vote to award the "Happy Vibe Award" to one of the players.
