Battle Hardened: Richmond

Country roads, take me home,

to the place, I belong, 

Richmond Virginia, 

playing Flesh and Blood, 

in a Battle Hardened,

with my friends. 

That’s right folks, Battle Hardened Richmond is headed to SCG CON on April 14th-16th, 2023! This is the LAST CHANCE to secure a PTI to qualify for Pro Tour Baltimore and have a shot at $200,000, Gold Foils, and the title of Pro Tour Champion!

Battle Hardened Richmond is kicking off the first premier event of the Outsiders organized play season!

Quick Details

Date: April 14-16, 2023
Venue: Greater Richmond Convention Center, 403 N 3rd St, Richmond, VA 23219
Registration: Register here
Hosted by: Star City Games

The weekend begins 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.

Event Details

Format: Classic Constructed
Entry Fee: $20 USD
Player Cap: 128
Time: 5:00PM
Prizes:

• 4-0: 500 Prize Wall Tickets, People’s Champion Playmat, Cold Foil Armory Promo

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.

Players will have the opportunity to battle it out for their share of USD2,000 in cash prizes, exclusive Battle Hardened series playmats to the Top 8, a Golden Cold Foil Legendary card to the Champion, and coveted Professional Tournament Invites (PTIs) to both the winner and runner-up.

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 ProQuest series are only valid for their associated Pro Tour event.

Swiss Rounds

• Swiss rounds are best-of-one.
• Swiss rounds are 50 + 5 minutes in duration. (50 + 5 means there are 5 minutes allocated for the start of game procedure. 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 players at the beginning of round 1.

Top 8

Top 8 playoff matches will have no time limit. (Players are still expected to play at a normal pace and complete playoff matches in a reasonable amount of time.)

In the Top 8, the player that finished higher in the Standings during the Swiss rounds chooses either to play first or second
