A Few Words from the Developers
Hello, Star Wars: The Card Game players!
We’re happy today to introduce the tournament rules for use in Organized Play tournaments for Star Wars: The Card Game. Contained in this document are game-specific rules for pairing and scoring matches, tie-break procedures, and the pool of tournament-legal card sets. Also included are guidelines to help tournament organizers run their events.
We have also made a small update to the FAQ. There were some lingering questions that were not entirely resolved in the first version of the FAQ, so we have added a couple of definitions that should help clear up any confusion.
