Kirari: I want to bring a friend and try those loaned 30-card decks. Learning together, then facing each other in a beginner match, sounds fun!
Nea: I’d like to learn the basics in the classroom first, then explore the different formats. I’m especially curious how playing on a three-person team changes the decisions you make.
Book the classroom ahead by October 23
The learn-to-play classroom uses 30-card decks to teach the rules and runs on both event days. Advance classroom reservations close on October 23 at 23:59 KST. On-site classroom reservations are also offered.

Borrow a deck for Beginner Battle; team up on Sunday
Beginner Battle runs on both days from 09:00 to 17:00, with entry closing at 16:00. Reservations are taken on site, first come, first served. Players use loaned 30-card decks for one-on-one, single-game matches with no time limit, and participants receive one promo card pack.
The 3-on-3 team battle runs only on Sunday, October 25, with the same hours, entry cutoff and first-come, on-site reservations. This format uses 60-card decks and single-game matches with a 30-minute limit.
Main-tournament players need timely check-in and a printed deck list
Main-tournament registration ended October 11, with no same-day registration available. On October 24, reserved Masters players must check in and submit their deck lists between 09:00 and 09:30; Juniors and Seniors have a 09:30–10:00 window. Players who miss their check-in window cannot compete.
Bring a regulation-compliant, sleeved 60-card deck, battle supplies and spare sleeves, plus a printed deck list in the designated format. Participants who are not South Korean nationals must also bring their Alien Registration Card. You can prepare and print a list through the official deck-list tool; the venue has neither spare forms nor printing assistance. The deck list submitted on Day 1 cannot be changed during Season 1.
The pictured Mega Zeraora ex promo is a main-tournament participation gift, alongside an original deck case and participation lanyard—not a general visitor or classroom bonus. Daily prize quantities are limited and may run out; reward images may differ from the actual items.
