The much awaited Road to Nationals series is coming! After a year in which the world was turned upside down and organized play was put on hold, we are incredibly pleased to be able to announce for 2021 a worldwide season of in-person Road to Nationals events taking place across Europe, North America and the Asia Pacific region. The season will feature a return of Classic Constructed play, Flesh and Blood's deepest and most strategically challenging format, as players across the world get a chance to compete for top prizes and slots in the National Championships.
Events will be taking place in stores worldwide, with over 175 events taking place over six weeks. You can view a map of the entire series or check out our event finder here;
The Road to Nationals season will run from 31st of July to the 5th September 2021. Each tournament will be Classic Constructed, and the top four players will receive automatic entry to their national championships. The events also feature a fantastic prize pool, comprising;
1st Prize
- 1x Rainbow Foil Extended Art Fyendal’s Spring Tunic
- 1x Fyendal’s Spring Tunic Playmat
- 1x Cold Foil Monarch Adult Hero (Randomly awarded from the heroes included)
2nd - 4th Prize
- 1x Exude Confidence Playmats
- 1x Cold Foil Monarch Adult Hero (Randomly awarded from the heroes included)
5th - 8th Prize
- 1x Cold Foil Monarch Adult Hero (Randomly awarded from the heroes included)
9th - 32nd Prize (awarded at the conclusion of swiss rounds)
- 1x Cold Foil Aura being either Parable of Humility, Merciful Retribution or Ode to Wrath
We also want to recognize that judges are a key part of the community, and so we have a special package just for judges comprising Rainbow Foil Extended Art Herald of Judgements.
For players that don't make the Top 4, Road to Nationals events are also a great way to earn XP, helping to put you in contention for a ratings based invitation to your National Championships. Road to Nationals events will be in-person only, reflecting the high value of the prize pool that's on offer here. If there are events that cannot take place, then we will look at replacing them with an online alternative; these will feature a reduced prize pool and will function principally as a means to accumulate XP to go towards a ratings based invitation to Nationals.
More details will be out in the coming days. In the meantime, start building your Classic Constructed testing gauntlets - the Road to Nationals is coming!
