Apr 04, 2023 Kasharn Rao

A story of legend is said to be told; The dawn of a new age a sight to behold; From all corners of Rathe, heroes they came; The common language they spoke was that of great games.


Who could believe that we’re already staring down Flesh and Blood’s third Pro Tour?

Everyone’s eyes will be turning to Baltimore from April 27th-30th to see the best of the best take each other on in a bloody showdown like no other!

But it’s not just the top competition that’s drawing people to Maryland, we’ve got so much action jam-packed into this weekend you’ll need a pair of snapdragon scalers just to keep up with it all.

Book your flights, sleeve your equipment, and let’s jump into what’s in store!

Reception

Warming up before the main event we’ll be treated to a special player's reception to celebrate how far we’ve all come and how far we continue to go.

5:00pm - Player registration opens.

6:00pm - Keynote presentation hosted by Flesh and Blood creator James White.

6:30pm - Light nibbles.

8:00pm - Q&A panel with James White, moderated by Matt di Marco.

Don't miss this landmark reception and your chance to pose some of the most burning questions to the creator himself.

Pro Tour

The meat in the sandwich - Pro Tour, will be swinging into action on Friday. Superstar players from across the globe will fight tooth and nail in seven grueling rounds of Classic Constructed and Booster Draft for their shot at the title.

Only the strongest will make it to Saturday, entering the arena for another seven rounds, until only the top 8 remain.

Sunday will bring these titans together for the big finale, and as the world watches with baited breath, a champion will emerge to claim their trophy, PTI, Gold Foil, $50,000 USD, and most importantly, bragging rights.

Calling

Even if you didn’t qualify for the Pro Tour, the Calling sings to you. Join the fray in this open entry tournament kicking off on Saturday, and running through into Sunday.

Many Pro Tour combatants who didn’t make Day 2 will have their chance to go again, while several newcomers will also be looking to take first blood - anything can happen in a Calling so don’t shy away from the challenge!

Battle Hardened

If you’re looking to get Down and Dirty with some hardcore, in your face, ballistic action, then don’t miss Sunday’s Battle Hardened!

With a frenzy of different heroes and fast-paced games, this open entry event is perfect for anyone looking to sink their teeth into some Blitz.

Side Events

Do you love Flesh and Blood but are still learning to play, or just want some casual games without the competitive pressure? The whole weekend has something for everybody, and you’re bound to find yourself mixed up in something fun.

Star City Games has a full schedule of side events taking place, from the budget beatdowns of Commoner, to the politics of Ultimate Pit Fight, to the complete insanity of Shapeshifter Sealed - it’s easy to find your crowd and jump into a game, while scoring some prizes on the side.

If you’ve never played before but you’re looking to start then pick up the Fresh to Fab ticket package and receive a Learn to Play deck, classic playmat, as well as entry to some new-player-exclusive events we have on offer.

The Cosplay Contest is the perfect way to showcase your craft, and possibly win a rare Taylor promo.

Featuring special cosplay guests Carolina Alvarado, Matthew Ayers, and Anthony Harden, this will truly be a sight to behold.
