Outsiders Pre-Release Weekend is almost here! Outsiders takes you down into the Pits, a sprawling web of underground caverns and canals, home to all manner of backstabbing and skullduggery. Choose between Assassin, Ranger and Ninja with six different heroes vying for your command! Pre-Release Weekend is running at select local game stores from the 17th to the 20th of March.
For those of you new to Pre-Releases, we put these weekends together as a special chance for the community to get together and celebrate the release of the latest set in a casual setting with some great prizes still on the line. Stores in cities around the world will be hosting events, so check out the Event Locator to find something going on near you. In bigger cities, we try and do a mix of events; large events at some of our biggest stores as a chance for everyone to get together as a community and battle it out; as well as smaller events at other stores around the city as a chance to go and play at your local store, or for you to go and explore a new store that you may not have been to before!
Catch up with your friends, meet some new people, and hopefully win a game or two along the way! The format for Outsiders pre-release events is Sealed Deck. You'll get six booster packs for deck building, and 30 minutes to put your deck together. Don't worry if you don't get the hero or weapons you want, you're allowed to grab any tokens that you need from the common pool of tokens. We've got a few other hints here if you're new to sealed deck events. This will be your only opportunity to get your hands on Outsiders ahead of its worldwide release on March 24th!
Each pre-release store will receive one or more Outsiders Pre-release prize kits, they contain the following:
- 2 Uzuri (Cold Foil) promo cards
- 16 Blood Rot / Frailty (Cold Foil) double sided promo cards
- 16 Inertia / Ponder (Cold Foil) double sided promo cards
- 1 Outsiders Token Pack (for use during the event by stores to give players access to the Hero and Weapon tokens which they require during the event).
- 2 Pits Matte Landscape Playmats
Players will receive a Cold Foil Bloodrot Pox/Frailty and an Inertia/Ponder token. Each pre-release kit will also feature two Cold Foil Uzuri hero cards and two playmats featuring the foreboding landscape of The Pits.
One Uzuri Cold Foil and one playmat will go to first place and the other playmat and Uzuri Cold Foil to be given out as a random draw giveaway to attendees (In the case your event has more than one kit available the playmats and Uzuri Cold Foils will be divided between top placers and participation prizes).
