[Max Lager]

Coming soon to Twilight Isle! The Fall All Ranks Tournament! One night only! Sunday, September 18th at 8:00 PM by the Eastern Clock, the Duel of Magic welcomes spellcasters of all abilities for the Fall All Ranks Tournament! Come out and fight at Wizard ranking for a chance to win one of several prizes.

All entrants who pre-register before 9:00 PM on Friday the 16th and show up by 7:55 PM on the night of the tournament will receive 1 win right off the bat. Unlike past tournaments where an activity duel was required prior to participating, the activity requirement has been waived!

2nd-5th place: Earned Wins plus your choice of one of the prizes listed below.
Everyone Else: Earned Wins.

Prize Pool!

This Aranara Spirit! They enjoy dancing in green spaces and making them thrive! Should the spirit be harmed they will transform into a seed that can be planted and grown to be reborn.



Twin Win Pass - The Twin Win Pass is a special pass that is used at the end of a regulation night of duels. Every Duel of Magic duel that you fought throughout the night will be doubled! This choice does not need to be made before a night of regulation duels, it instead can be used after should the pass holder be impressed enough with their gained wins throughout the night and wish to double them.
The Twin Win Pass may be used during the cycle it is gained or during the following cycle.
A pass holder may only use one pass at a time.



Empowered Earth Gem Wand – With the aid of this wand and the gem infused within it, the caster becomes instilled with the fury of the Tower of Earth. While its power may fade, the wand and depowered gem may be kept. Allows the user to use Elemental Fury in normal regulation duels until the next All Ranks Tournament. Unable to be used in challenges.


Mystery Box Prize! What could be inside? Hint: its a gamble with silver nobles and win coupons!

The Autumn Cloak - Stylish for the Season and Practical!

Twin Daggers - Growth and Rot
