We are switching things up a bit this month. Instead of a sixth classic event, we are going to be playing Core! (Classic will return in January.) We’re excited for the opportunity to play WoW TCG on a free browser-based client and safely connect players around the world.
Core Format: All black-bordered cards from blocks 7 and 8 will be legal for play. Decks are 60 cards minimum, with a 10 card sidedeck. (Card list: http://wow.tcgbrowser.com/#!/corelegal=true and https://www.wowtcgreborn.com/articles/2022/block-8-core-starter-set )
Untap.in: You’ll need to have your deck ready to go on the free and safe browser-based card gaming client Untap.in. Visit https://untap.in/ to do this. You can find an excellent VIDEO TUTORIAL HERE (https://youtu.be/5T_oVH4l3iA) or ask around on the WoW TCG Discord for help.
Core Banlist: Reminder that the following cards are banned in Core for Reborn events:
Ashenvale
Legacy of the Horde
The Last Relic of Argus

Reborn Cards: Reminder that Reborn card sets are legal for all Reborn events. You can find the latest cards at WoW TCG Browser (search under "Into the Mists Block"), WoW TCG Portal, and https://www.wowtcgreborn.com/cards
Reborn Balance Changes: Some Reborn cards have been changed. See the full list at: April Balance & Banlist Update
Round Duration: Each round will run for 47 hours during which you will need to contact your opponent to coordinate a time to play.
Match Duration: Each match should be timed with a time limit of 90 minute. Each match will be a best-of-three during which a side deck of 10 cards may be used to modify your deck for games two and three. All players are responsible for tracking match time and initiating End of Match Procedure when 90 minutes has elapsed. (See Game Policy) Both players may agree at the beginning of a match to play past the Match Duration.
Player Arrangement Control: Players will be instructed to include which player went first in the first game of each match when reporting results. Beginning in Round 2, the player with the fewest number of match starts will play first. In the first round of Top Cut, the player with the higher seed will play first, then first will be decided randomly in subsequent Top Cut rounds. Players must go first if assigned.
