Practical details

Tournament venue


Outpost Gent is a good 10 min. walk away from the Gent Sint-Pieters train station. If you come by car, we recommend parking in the Karel Lodewijk Ledeganckstraat, which is free on Sundays. On Saturday, parking will cost you a small fee, so be sure to pass by the meter to avoid a fine.

Drinks and food are available at the venue. While we don’t mind that you bring your own snacks, please refrain from bringing beverages of your own. Support the store instead.

Registration

You can register beforehand by joining the appropriate events on Facebook.
There are no event caps, we should have plenty of room to accomodate all attending players.

Vintage Proxy Guidelines

Because Vintage has gotten prohibitively expensive over the past few years, we’ve decided to allow the use of proxies for this event. Any number of proxies can be used, as long as you follow these simple rules:

  • The cards should be clearly recognizable for your opponent.
  • The cards should be indistinguishable from the realcards in your deck.

To give some examples:

  • It’s OK to use basics with the word “MOX” on it, but at least use the appropriate land type.
  • Some sets have blank MDFC cards, which are perfect as proxies. Just write the name, manacost and key abilities on the card, and sleeve it like the other cards in your deck.
  • Use a similar card (same color/CMC) and “alter” it to represent the desired card. Make sure there is no doubt on which card you are representing.
  • Print out proxy slips and sleeve ’em with random cards. In this case, we advise you to proxy the entire deck, as cards with paper slips in front, tend to be easily distinguishable from regular cards.

When creating your own proxies, similar rules apply as with card alterations. Most notably, the card’s thickness and feel must match normal cards, and the card should not have any imagery that does not belong in a PG13 rated card game (e.g. no explicit nudity).

It is your resposibility to make sure your deck is legal and does not contain any marked cards. When in doubt, please consult the head judge before the start of the event.
