Taking inspiration from the Iberian Lockdown events (which you can read about here and here), this event will have both Diversified Portfolio rules, plus certain cards will be "locked down" (banned).

What are Diversified Portfolio rules? To encourage ID diversity, all IDs are assigned a points value, and then you are given a limited budget (5) to spend on 'buying' your two IDs. Further, to encourage more creativity, where people are level in Swiss, the first tiebreaker will be fewest ID points spent, before SoS and ESoS as normal.

The corp tiers are:

6 points (banned): Titan
5 points: Gagarin, Argus, CtM, Azmari, Asa
