Battle of the Border! High Noon is coming

As the warriors gather, in preparation for travel, the sun begins to rise. They have gone through some trials, but yet they still have more to come. The next one shall prove difficult; the Wretched Path of Doom. Ensnarled within include rabid beasts, needle ceilings, and a mid-level boss battle. However, if they survive the Wretched Path and reach the Colosseum, then the light of High noon shall shine upon them as they wage war with the enemy of the opposing side.

-------------------------

Have I set the tone? Are you anxious, warriors? And of you, those who are watching, chanting, cheering from the stands?

The rules of combat are as follows:
* GA BYOT constructed
* 7 rounds (most likely anyways)
* 1v1 contests
* Team Rules apply (will elaborate)
* Solo Performance will be awarded as well

now my elaboration:
As to decide who are the fittest, finest warriors in the lands, player game averages will be averaged again together to form team averages. The greater of the two shall emerge from the Colosseum victorious. The averages will work because playing against teammates wouldn't change the average one way or another.

There will be many prizes, and of them, included are these:
* Complete sets of two Golden Age expansions in foil and nonfoil
* Modern Age Rares
* Modern Foils
* Foreign Language cards
* EAs/Promos
* Secret Super Duper Earning Condition Prizes of Grandeur
* Comics
* Movies
* Jetpack Comics discount / Store Credit
* More secret specialty prizes

What are these specialty prizes about? Well ... things are going to be interesting. Sometimes, a Warrior might find a trusty edge buried in the desert sand just as decisive peril might strike. While these won't affect game outcomes, how your game comes out might play a factor. We'll have an eagle in the sky keep a lookout for those who have proven themselves worthy and fortunate.

Lemme Hear you BATTLE CRY!
