Test your mastery of Grand Archive through our open competitive event: Path of Steel. To celebrate this being the World’s Edition for Path of Steel, we are introducing a new format to increase accessibility and diversify deck buiding. Get ready for 3 V 3 Team Standard!! What does this mean and how should you prepare? Let’s cover everything you need to know. Don’t go into battle alone! For a complete breakdown of the format, refer to the outline below. The following sections will provide a more general overview of Team Standard 3 v 3.
Each team will consist of 3 players who have been declared as A, B, or C prior to the tournament. The letter order dictates the seating arrangement! Each match will be a 50 minute BO1 with 5-minute overtime and 5-minute judge extension, ABC versus ABC. Communication is allowed between team members who are seated beside each other.
Rules for slow play still apply, so communicate strategically to avoid jeopardizing your team’s chance of advancing! We will also be watching for disruptions that fall under distractions.
Since finding the right team may take time, team declaration is not required during ticket purchase.arrow_back_ios PREV

DECK BUILDING
Playset restrictions are shared across all of your teammate’s decks. This applies to both the main deck and the material deck.
MATERIAL DECK EXAMPLE: You may not all use the same exact spirit, thus right off the bat, the whole team should feature at minimum 2 unique elements–or a Lost Spirit if you’re feeling really spicy.
MAIN DECK EXAMPLE: You may split 4 Creative Shocks across the 3 players. Player A may have 2 Creative Shock Cards, Player B may have 1 Creative Shock Card, and Player C may have 1 Creative Shock Card. This restriction applies to all cards enabled in standard play.
SIDE BOARD: NONE
