The biggest thing at Gen Con Indy was UDE's Vs. Pro Circuit, which occupied nearly half of the TCG hall. Over 200 players turned out for the invitation-only event and they were treated to quite a display of custom sets including a giant Batman statue holding larger-than-life Vs. cards, the original Batmobile from the 1960s TV show, and other coolness. Check out Metagame.com's deep coverage of the event.
In other Pro Circuit news, Undefeated revealed its latest contest at Gen Con Indy too: we're giving away 4 Pro Circuit invitations in time for Gen Con So Cal's Pro Circuit tournament, plus gobs of 1st Edition card packs to 16 other entrants. The Grand Prize winner will even get $250 (just as if he or she won a PC Qualifier; how sweet is that?). Look for the contest ad in Undefeated #8 or check it out here.
Perhaps most exciting for me, Gen Con Indy was where I found out that I too was on the Vs. PC invite list! (Of course, they spelled my last name wrong, but so do I from time to time.) I don't have all of the details worked out, but I plan to attend. Look for updates here and in the pages of Undefeated.
If you haven't checked it out, here is the press release about Undefeated magazine's Vs. Pro Circuit Invite contest.
