 Deck Building:

• Commander: Choose a legendary creature to be your Commander, which will reside in the command zone and can be cast from there for its mana cost.
  
  

• Deck Size: Your deck must contain exactly 100 cards, including your Commander.
  
  

• Singleton Format: You can only have one copy of each card (except for basic lands).
  
  

• Color Identity: Your Commander's color identity must match the colors of the other cards in your deck.
  
  

 Tournament Format:

1. Two-Headed Giant Commander:

• 99 card deck + a Commander card.

• There is no unified construction, though each player's deck should be a legal Commander deck by itself.

• Each team starts with 60 life.

• The team does not share any other resources other than life. For instance, any reference to "you" on a card still applies to the individual holder.

• A team loses when they take 21 or more damage from a single commander OR have 15 or more poison counters.

• The team that goes first skips their first draw step.

• Effects that read "each opponent" or "each player", however, affect each team member separately. Players can block any creature(s) that are attacking them, their teammates or Planeswalkers their team controls.
  
  

2. Command Zone: Your Commander starts in the command zone, which is a special area off to the side of the game.
   
   

3. Turns: Turns progress in a clockwise direction around the table.
   
   
   

 Tournament Structure:

• Round Time: 120mins
  
  

• Player Matchup: 2v2
  
  

Tournament Etiquette:

• Respect the Game: Maintain a positive and respectful attitude towards other players and the tournament organizers. BE RESPECTFUL OF PLAYERS, THOSE WORKING AND THE VENUE.
  
  

• Be on Time: Arrive on time for your matches and be prepared to play.
  
  

• Engage with the Community: Talk to other players, share your excitement for the game, and learn from others.
