The path to the biggest stage in Flesh and Blood TCG Organized Play begins with a Professional Tournament Invitation (PTI), and one of the best places to secure these prized assets is Battle Hardened.

Teams will have the opportunity to battle it out for their share of 3,000 USD in cash prizes, exclusive Battle Hardened series playmats to the Top 4, Gold Foils to the Champions, and coveted Professional Tournament Invites (PTIs) to the top finishing team.

PTIs can be used to enter any Professional level tournament (including Pro Tours and the World Championship) and do not expire, whereas invitations from the in-store Pro Quest series are only valid for their associated Pro Tour event.

Players must have presented their deck and revealed their equipment and weapons within this 5 minute window. If both players complete the start of game procedure in less than 5 minutes, they may begin playing their match immediately.)
• The number of rounds of Swiss is determined by the number of teams at the beginning of round 1.

Prizes

The weekend continues with a Super Armory event. Normally, an Armory Kit is provided to stores to support a full month of in-store events, but at a Super Armory, the full contents of a kit are used for one single event, meaning that multiple players get prizes, instead of just the winner! The prizes for this event include Cold Foil Promos and official Flesh and Blood playmats.
