Format: 400 pt Silver Age 2v2 Constructed.
"Alphabet Soup" All game elements on a build must begin with the same letter. This includes the sideline, equipment, characters, etc. This would ALSO include Tarot Cards if you are playing them. Both players on a team must use the same letter. Extreme Highlander rules are in effect. EVERYTHING is unique (unless specifically designed not to be, message PJ Bolin OR the ChampionClix Open official Facebook page if you need clarity). No figures over 200 points allowed. Teams must contain a minimum of 4 figures. SPIRIT OF THE GAME will be HEAVILY enforced for this event. If you are attempting to break the game, find infinite loops, or completely unfair combinations it will not be allowed by the judging staff. This includes (but not limited to), turn 1 wins, infinite combos, untargetable game states, etc.
*** At ChampionClix Open, we value our fans and players above all else. Feedback is incredibly important to us. As a result, you spoke, we listened. Some adjustments and changes are being made to our Friday 2v2 Alphabet Soup event. 1. The Restricted list is being placed into effect. This decision was made a bit hastily by PJ, our head judge, and we realize it’s best this way. 2. All figures listed on the banned list are being removed and added to the restricted list. 3. Yes, ID cards are legal for the format but must also follow the lettering rules. For this event only the Blackbird, XXS, and the Wanted poster ID cards will be legal (essentially all X-Men IDs). IDs are NOT part of the restricted list, however. You can play as many as you are able to. 4. Maps must also follow the lettering rules. If your letter has 0 available maps, your team may choose a letter to use maps from. If your letter has 1 available map, you both may use it. There is no curated list. Any Silver age accessible map is legal. 5. Terrain markers don't have officially given names (except those with cards). You can assume they do not have letters associated with them. 6. There is no silver age floor requirement. Having the floor would likely make several letters unplayable, so this will be skipped over. We apologize for the confusion and the changes this hastily. The main goal is to have FUN! We wanted our players to have ample time to complete proper builds. If you have questions, please ask!

Yes, this event is starting quite early! However, we have dinner and entertainment going on in the evening hours, and we would like this to be concluded at that point.
ALL builds will need verified by a judge. Verification for this event will be able to be completed at any point in time before this even (including the day prior). If your build is not signed off by one of the judges, then I will disqualify you! Not really, but please make this easy.
Random Tarot deck checks will occur throughout the event, and again on all decks that enter top cut to verify there is no marked card.

Each team will consist of 3 players. You will receive a brick of whatever the newest Heroclix set is. You will then have 30 minutes to build a 300-point team for each player. You may only use contents that were pulled in the brick.
Register early to save your spot in a full Brick BR, beginning early on Thursday evening. These will run the entirety of all 4 days and will be available to play in during all open convention times. Enjoy prizing out an entire brick under MSRP + additional convention exclusives to make prizing complete. Don’t leave empty handed!
As a reminder, like in past events, We do not sell event tickets at the door. Pre-registration only! This way, we can accurately stock product ahead of time, confirm person count for our event space, and ensure we’re adequately staffed to provide you a premium experience. We do, however, allow door entry for BRs only! No ticket or pass required. We cannot, however, guarantee our product quantity for non-pre registered BRs throughout the weekend. While we stock as much as we can, we generally run out of non-ticketed BR product by Sunday.
PJ Bolin
PJ has been an active player in the competitive scene since 2015. Too bad he never wins anything. Maybe one day. He spends the majority of his day chasing around an energetic kid and being too tired to move. He is a co-host of Critical Clix (but the real reason people listen).
Lucas Tom Van Holland
Lucas lives in Minnesota with his Wife and kitten. His hobbies include crit missing, putting his liver to work, and knowing Heroclix rules better than most Wizkids judges.

Anthony Barnstable started playing Heroclix in 2005 at the age of 12, at a store named Hero Headquarters that has since closed. Over the years, he competed hard in the Wizard World convention series and Gen Con, following Wizkids to their events and making himself known in the community as a younger player. He never achieved success taking first place in any major events, but then dedicated his focus to helping the community in other ways. In 2014, he joined the Wizkids volunteer team at the conventions helping run Worlds 2014, and then shortly after was listed in the Heroclix Rule Book under “Rules Arbiter Assistance” and has remained there since, doing what he can to help improve the rules of this game we love. During this time as a volunteer, he has demonstrated a passion for providing the best experience to players he can and raised the bar for other judges, as seen by Brian Galley also starting to try and deliver fast rulings with a smile too. He has helped judge for Heroclix For Huntington’s as well starting in 2023, with plans to continue to return there, and has now joined the team for the ChampionClix Open. Additionally, he has helped Christopher Cottrill by writing the tournament rules for the Pauper Circuit, which laid the framework for the new Pulp Format many players know and love. He helped Lane Miller and others start the first online Heroclix events by writing their tournament rules, laying the groundwork for the evolution of online play that we have gotten to today.
