Duelist/Magic Invitational |
Index | 1999 1 - 2 | 99/00 | 2000 List - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 | 2001 | Winner's Cards
The Duelist Invitational brings together 16 of the best players in the world in a battle more for ego and bragging rights than points and prizes. One of the formats played at the Invitational is "Duplicate Sealed"100-odd cards specifically chosen by Mark Rosewater, and including a number of special cards of his creation. This format was played at the 1999, 99/00, and 2001 Invitationals. The first tournaments in 1997 and 1998 did not have any custom cards, and the 2000 Invitational used regular Magic cards with modified casting costs. These "cards" are printed onto stickers, and have no artwork. If they were made anywhere else, they would not be included, but since they are created by Maro himself, and they are used in an official tournament, they can truly be classified as Magic Rarities. At least 16 of each exist, but not many more. The prize for winning a Duelist Invitational is to be able to design your own Magic card to be included in an upcoming expansion.
