Wow, just wow! Tournament players unite! The months ahead of us are rich of events that will shape the scene of the UAE MTG community, and for good. Not only do we get one main event per month, but prior to the release of Rize of the Eldrazi we will hold the new Fly-to-Victory events which will see some of our players fly to Lyon and Manila. Squished between those two Grand Prix is also the UAE Nationals! What would your calendar look like if you were to place first on these tournaments? Let’s have a look:

• Feb 04 – Release of Worldwake – get a brand new tshirt and lots of new cards. Win 2 booster boxes since you placed first on both sealed events.
• 3 weeks to prepare your skills in limited for Fly-to-Victory Lyon
• Feb 26 – Win Fly-to-Victory Lyon (Sealed event)
• 4 weeks to prepare and tune a standard deck to rock your ticket to Manila for one of the hottest GP of the year
• Mar 23 – Win Fly-to-Victory Manila, thanks to the preparation at regular FNMs
• (3 weeks break time)
• Apr 23 – new set, new cards – need to find the key to Rize of the Eldrazi limited at the prerelease and release events, GP Lyon is 2 weeks away! Get the much-needed 1800 rating to get a bye at the GP.
• May 08 – Rock GP Lyon with Pierre Nassif and Jiri. Qualify for Day 2 and place into the top64 prizes. (note to self: try to sleep before the GP, 8-9 rounds isnt easy). Meet Patrick Chapin and ask him what to play in the standard portion of the UAE Nationals.
• Argh! only 2 weeks to prepare for the UAE Nationals.
• May 28 – the big day has arrived, will YOU be the UAE champion and get an invitation to the 2010 World Championships?
• 2 weeks to prepare for GP Manila, fresh of your qualification for Worlds you have faith that you’ll crush all resistance at the GP. Beware of the Japanese players, they will all be there with new crazy techs! Hopefully the UAE Nats gave you a lot of experience with THE deck.
• Jun 11 – GP Manila! Who actually cares about the result? Lots of food and partying in Manila with Zak, JR, Glen & co! (still do day 2 – beating the Japanese menace on the way)
• one month to finally take a good rest – summer is upon us
• Jul 18 – Release of Magic 2011 – new cards and a new t-shirt to add to the now enormous collection. Enjoy the success!
