Do you play the
WoW Trading Card Game? You any good, punk? From June 3 through June 6, 2010,
the North American Continentals will be happening in Las Vegas, and Cryptozoic Entertainment, the
new World of Warcraft TCG licensee, seems to be picking up the slack left by Upper Deck at record speed! They've booked several blocks of rooms at the Paris and Bally's hotels, a paid stay at which will include several nice
TCG gifts:
- Two Tuskarr Kite (or King Mukla) loot cards
- Two Naxxramas treasure packs
- Two Series 1 class deck boxes (assorted)
- Two packs of WoW TCG sleeves
- Other gifts from Cryptozoic and other World of Warcraft partners
There's $50,000 in prizes up for grabs and no entry fee, as far as I can tell. If you're big into the TCG competitively, this is the place to be! For the full schedule,
check out Cryptozoic's press release here.

I'd really like to find out if Cryptozoic is changing the way licensing for events is handled.
Apparently, only certain locations within given areas can organize certain WoW TCG events, or at least that was the case under UDE. I'd love to know if this was changing, because then I might be able to get back into the game without having to drive an hour.

Well, UDE had certain requirements. But, there main issue was that they (at least in CA) had two guys who were allowed to run the 'big' events. These events generated a lot of case for these two guys. Now, UDE wasn't/isn't opposed to letting new people in to be 'PTOs' (premier tournament organizers) but they required you to get a letter of recommendation from one of the two existing PTOs....really? So, the guy that I'm going to taking piles of cash from is suppose to recommend me?! Yeah, didn't work out so well.
UDE had the world with YGO and WOW tcg, but due to their own stupidity they lost it.
