2017 Star Wars: The Card Game North American Championship Prizes

  • Participation – The Inquisitor ignites his blade and prepares to add yet another foe to the long list of those who have fallen prey to his elite skills on this fearsome alternate art card. In addition, each competitor receives a stunning commemorative 2017 North American Championship coin.
  • Top Third – After the dust settles from the Swiss rounds, players who placed among the top third of all competitors will receive a set of Force dedication tokens for Scum and Villainy and Smugglers and Spies.
  • Top 32 – The premium three-compartment deckbox (pictured below), bearing the North American Championship logo, awaits those who ascend to the top 32 of final standings.
  • Top 16 – A hefty medal will be draped around the neck of each competitor that ascends to the Top 16, bearing an inscription and game logo on its reverse.
  • Finishing Placement – A stunning playmat featuring Doctor Aphra diving through a hail of blaster fire is awarded to each player who blasts their way into the Top 8. Each playmat bears an icon displaying the rank its bearer finished the event with, including Top 8, Top 4, 2nd, and 1st.
  • Top 4 – Each of these players will have the opportunity to build on their incredible performance at the World Championship by earning a free reserved seat next May!
  • Finalist – A plaque commemorates an outstanding accomplishment, and is complimented with a bye at the World Championship next May!
  • Champion – In addition to a radiant trophy, the North American Champion wins the chance to inspire the design of a future Star Wars: The Card Game card! A free flight and hotel room for the next World Championship will elevate them to the pinnacle of competition, where they receive a bye in the first round. The champ is even allowed an additional free reserved seat, to bring a friend or companion to compete alongside them at Worlds.

Note: If a Top 4 player already has a free reserved Star Wars: The Card Game World Championship seat, it will pass down to the next highest-ranking player without one. Prizes relating to the World Championship cannot be deferred, and byes and travel awards will not pass down. The alternate art cards in this kit are produced via FFG's In-House Manufacturing and may appear slightly different in color and texture from the game's other cards.
