What is ScapeCon?

Spoiler Alert!

ScapeCon is a HeroScape tournament convention that puts the focus on the best part of competitive HeroScape: the people. For five days, we game together, and we eat together. There's no driving to or from a different hotel (unless you want to!), and there's no rushing out to get food elsewhere in between tournaments. Everything you need is under one roof.

Why the cost of the badge? Your badge covers all your gaming and all your meals- no purchasing event tickets. There's no charge to park at the hotel, and the room rates are very reasonable. Once you're there, you only have to open your wallet if you want to (and you may want to, given that there's a bar in the restaurant in the hotel).

The food is great, the people are great, the prizes are great, the tournament formats are great- there's really nothing else you could want out of five days of HeroScape. And of course, there's open gaming any time.

BADGE OPTIONS:
$400: ScapeCon III Badge
$350: ScapeCon III No Breakfast Badge
Wednesday or Sunday 1-Day: $55
Thursday, Friday, or Saturday 1-Day: $125

INFORMATION:

Overall Structure:
Wed: Team (starts at 4PM)

Sun: World Championship (invite only- must qualify from other events) and 2 side events (done by 3 PM)

Championships:
5 rounds swiss followed by Top Cut (4-1s make Cut).
Qualifying for the World Championship:
(1) The winning Hydra Team
(2) The Top 4 Players from each of the 3 Championships
(3) The X players with the most wins across the weekend in events (not including
Hydra OR Evening Events), where X is 16 minus the number of players who qualify via the other 2 methods (minimum 1 player).

World Championship:
16 players, 4 rounds (single elimination). 5 minutes for drafting each round, 60-minute rounds (75-minute finals).
Drafting (Top 16, 8, 4):
Dice off. High roll drafts first.
Draft in a 1-2-2-2-2 etc. pattern.
Each copy of a common card is a separate pick.
Armies are not placed until all units have been drafted.
Once you are out of points, you may not draft any more cards (but you may continue to draft up to the point limit even if the extra card(s) would put you over the figure limit). Draft Pools (Top 16, 8, 4):
Players will be placed in a bracket. There are 3 different draft pools: Jandar, Utgar, and Scouts.
One half of the Top 16 will use the Jandar pool, and the other half will use the Utgar pool.
One half of the Top 8 will use the Utgar pool, and the other half will use the Jandar pool (if you used Utgar in Top 16, you will use Jandar in Top 8, and vice-versa).
The entire Top 4 will use the Scouts pool.
Finals:
Dice off. High roll is Player A.
Player A strikes 1 of the 3 draft pools.
Player B then strikes 1 of the remaining 2 draft pools. Player A drafts first from the remaining pool.

We could carpool! I should have Crystalman with me, but we will certainly have more room for more.

[Gingerkid16]

I’ll be there with wife and son!! Sooo stoked!!

FYI: Don’t know if this might help people decide if they will be able to go or not. But if anyone wants to, you are more than welcome to crash at my place and hitch a ride with us daily. I have a 3 row car (and so does my wife depending on how many respond) so plenty of room. It is only about a 35-45 min (depending on traffic) trip. I have couches, air mattresses, late night snacks, Wi-Fi, plenty of bathrooms, all the things lol. And if you are really feeling froggy and want that convention/music festival vibe we have 10 acres and plenty of tents, we can run extension cords out too. Just throwing out something different lol. Oh and no charge, maybe chip in for gas a bit if you’d like. I mean we will be driving there anyway lol. Just throwing this out there, if you are interested send me a private message to work out details.

Wish it was already next year lol.
