Join the Massachusetts Sorcery Guild for The Salem Witch Trials! Each player will build a tournament-legal deck, using one of two Avatars: Witch of Magician. Because the nature of this tournament is flavor and fun over competition, prizing will be structured to reward creativity, first and foremost. Custom Massachusetts Sorcery Guild tokens will be awarded to individuals who meet one or more of the individual criteria below, based on the composition of their deck or certain plays made throughout the tournament. An additional qualification to achieve a title will be at least one win logged during the tournament rounds. Ties will be awarded equally. Players will announce which Deck Composition title (or titles) they are competing for at the beginning of the tournament.

To add to the fun, prizing will also be awarded for costumes (to be decided collectively by the participants and individually by the tournament organizers)--so get into the Halloween spirit!
