War Torn Front Game Center's State of Events Address

It is time for a change!

If that opening comment did not stir some part of you to read further, well thats all we got.

Normally, the War Torn Front blog is used to update the players about the FNM leaderboard, or the winners of various Preliminary Pro Tour Qualifiers and their deck lists.

Today, however, we are going to discuss some changes coming to War Torn Front's schedule of events. The staff has been discussing and debating many of these changes and we want you, the players, to know your feedback does matter. Feel free to leave comments below with what you feel could be some changes that could be made to our weekly schedule. With that, lets discuss the changes coming to the War Torn Front events.

Mondays

Starting August 15th, Mondays at War Torn Front will be going to Open Play. In the past, we had On Demand Swiss MTG Drafts and Cardfight Vanguard listed here.

We are making this change for the following reasons:

1. Cardfight Vanguard's crowd has died off.
2. See Thursday for Information about Swiss Drafts

Cardfight Vanguard had a very strong showing a few months ago. We had groups of players ranging from 6-8, to the highest being roughly 16 players on a Monday night. However, since that point attendance has dwindled to the point where the last month not a single Cardfight Vanguard event has fired. We have been debating these events for some time, but ultimately we feel taking them down for an undisclosed period of time is the best action.

We will still sell and buy Cardfight Vanguard Single and product and we will still be hosting Cardfight Vanguard Sneak Peeks, however until further notice Cardfight Vanguard Constructed events will be discontinued. If you wish to see a change in this decision, let us know in the comments below.

Thursday

Starting August 18th, Thursdays at War Torn Front will be hosting $13 MTG Swiss Drafts and Free Tiny Leaders. In the past, we held Free Standard as our event of choice.

We are making this change for the following reasons;

1. Free Standard's crowd has shrunk significantly
2. Many players have asked about having drafts later on in the work week.
3. Tiny Leaders has had a resurgence in popularity in our area.

Free Standard has always been a great entry level event here at the store. Many of our regular FNMers have started their careers grinding through Free Standard to get better. Lately, however, attendance at these events has shrunk to the point where our event has not fired these last few weeks. As such, we have decided to take Free Standard off the schedule until further notice. We fill by having Swiss Drafts and Tiny Leaders on this day, we can give you, the players, more fun alternatives formats to play during the work week.

Sunday

Starting August 21st, Sundays will be Pokemon League day for the Pokemon TCG.

Many local players have asked us about hosting the Pokemon TCG in our store front. After seeing the massive response from the XY Steam Siege event, we have decided to bring the Pokemon TCG into the lime light for War Torn's Event Schedule. Keep an eye on the Facebook page next week for information concerning how the event will be run for Sundays.

In addition, We are debating ideas for Pokemon GO to coincide with Pokemon league days. Let us know in the comments below if this is something you would like for us to consider for our events.

These are the major changes that will be occurring for War Torn Front's Weekly event schedule. As always make sure to like, subscribe to War Torn Front Game Center's Facebook page, and comment about ways to help grow the communities for all games held here at War Torn Front.

We look forward to seeing you all in show in the future!
