Intro

UK Nationals is coming back to Sheffield, and being hosted in Patriot Games' gigantic new store! We're excited to welcome people back and aim to make this a fun long weekend of Netrunner and socialising. This is the listing for the team event, but the overall outline of the weekend is:

Friday 25th: Team tournament (teams of 3)
Saturday 26th: Main event swiss - see separate listing
Sunday 27th: Main event cut + side events (startup + classique)

Timings

The team event is on Friday 25th. The store opens at 10:00, with registration from 10:30. We aim to start round 1 at 11:00.

Format

To kick off the long weekend of nationals fun, we have a special team event! In this event, players compete in teams of 3, with each team-mate representing a different runner and corp faction, and team talk is encouraged so that you can call on the expertise of your friends or blame them when everything goes wrong. The winning team will have the honour of being President of Servers 2022!

To take part, you will need to put together a team of three. Each of you must bring a deck from a different corp faction and a different runner faction (this can include mini factions). If you have any questions about whether your combination of IDs is ok then please post a comment / contact the TO (Paul Gillibrand). Once you have your team, you can fill in this spreadsheet with your team members and who has bought the ticket (only one ticket is needed per team). If you’re looking to join a team, then put your name and contact details (Discord / Slack / email) in the right-hand side of the sheet.

During the tournament, teams will be paired in four swiss rounds according to their total prestige (calculated as normal, i.e. 3 points per win). Teams will be seated together in prestige order and team talk is highly encouraged (rounds will be slightly longer to accommodate this).

The event will be standard format. Decklists are not required. The team event is a 'casual' tier event for the purposes of judge calls and floor rules.

Prize Support

Participation: TBC

Top 3 teams: Medals and Jakuza laser IDs on premium materials!

Random drawing: Jakuza laser IDs to be drawn and given away during the day.
