Ok It's ALMOST that time of year again when duelists pull out their best decks in order to gain the official title of XeroCreative Champion!

Last Year's champion Sun is bound to enter but can he hold onto the title for a second year running?

Now, Anyone who was on last year will remember the format. 4 Qualifiers (1st + 2nd get into finals) and then the Finals in July. This format will be staying so 8 Lucky people will be able to go for that top spot once again!

However, Entry requirements are slightly harder this year so I am posting them now so that everyone knows.

Minimum Posts: Increased from 5, to 20.
XCBux Entry Cost: $20

Yes. XCC Will cost you 20XCbux to enter a qualifier!

Prizes are now as follows:

Qualifiers:
1st Place: 75% of the Prize Pool (240 if it is a full qualifier of 16 people)
2nd: 25% of Prize Pool (80 if it is a full qualifier of 16 people)
Entry into the Finals (1st and 2nd)

Finals:
1st Place
A Whopping 500 XCBux! That's right. Not only do you get 240 for winning the qualifier you will gain another 500 for the finals!
A Vhost on IRC
A Forum sig made for you!
Possibly more TBC

2nd Place
200 XCBux
Runner Up Forum sig
Maybe more TBC


So get ready. As soon as you hear what the official banlists are for march 2012, get your decks ready!

1st and 2nd in each qualifier could gain something... like 10 XCBux. >.>

Maybe all the participants get a discount on the next entry fee? <.<

Actually do the calculation. 2nd place gains 60 extra Bux, and 1st gains 220.

I'd enter, but that would just mean 1 min duels while my opponent watches me draw my entire deck, procede onto round 2, wait 5 min for them to side deck any counter trap cards they have (which if they are smart they side decked a total of 15 counter trap cards), and if they don't do squat or only have 1-2 face down trap cards, repeat step 1.

My first thought is that Exodia Spell thing, but I've never seen it win a single duel.

I've got a pretty consistent dragon-exodia deck that tends to win turn 1/2. He probaly has something similar.
