The Magic the Gathering Iloilo Community has decided to bring back the MTG Iloilo Championships this year and it will be a two-day event. I think they are still voting for the weekend in December to schedule this one and the Saturday will cater the Standard format as almost all the local players are into it.

As for the Sunday, they have agreed it to be that of the Teams but the formats were also voted. So far the leading option in the tally is Standard-Pioneer-Modern. I have also voted for that one as that is the most viable option for the community. Most of the players have kept their cards after rotation and with the introduction of Pioneer, they will surely still have their pieces and components to build their decks with.

I am also longing for a Pioneer tournament but most of the players are still completing their deck builds. My card pool has already prepared at least three decks for Pioneer and are tournament ready. I am not sure though for myself as a pilot as I have not yet started playtesting the decks.

I am looking forward for the successful turnout of this year’s comeback MTG Iloilo City Championships.
