| Sleeving |
Fighters are required to use opaque card sleeves so that the back of cards cannot be easily distinguished. Sleeves used for all cards must be of the same design unless otherwise stated. Exception:

| Deck Registration | It is mandatory to register the deck (submit the deck list) upon tournament registration. Discrepancies between the deck list and actual deck used in the tournament may result in a penalty. |
| Entry Fee | Free If the Regional Championship is held inside another convention, the entry fee to the convention may be applicable. |
| Time-up Policy | Players have 10 minutes to finish the 3 extra turns. After 10 minutes, the game is decided by sudden death. For best of 3 formats, if it is 1-1 after the extra turns procedure, both players lose. |
