Pioneer - LEC Qualifier - Top 8 Decklists

Pioneer - Legacy European Championship Qualifier - Top 8 Decklists

 We had a full house of 64 players for our first Pioneer event since before the pandemic and our first qualifier event that feeds into the new competitive play structure. After a brief introduction, battle commenced and the competition to find our first qualifier, and recipient of a £250 bursary to get them to Sofia, began!

After 6 rounds we found our Top 8 players who piloted decks representing the most popular strategies in the current Pioneer metagame. Their decklists can be found below.

We'd like to thank all those who attended on Sunday as well as thanking our Judges: James and Harry, who did a masterful job running the event.

A quick reminder that we have another qualifier event at our MEGA Weekend on Sunday 11th September!
