Jank it Up, Fuzzball is partnering with Kingwood Hobbies to send the Awakenings block out with a bang! If you’re in the greater Houston area, join us on Saturday, February 23rd for a special Solidarity tournament. This will be an Infinite format event, so let’s put those rotating cards to use one last time!

Solidarity Tournament Rules

That’s right — this is a 40-card deck event (with a 5-card sideboard). You must include the Solidarity plot, which gives you one additional character point to build with, but restricts your team to a single color and limits your deck to a single copy of each card. Given the team-building color restrictions, Kylo Ren – Tormented One and Kylo Ren’s Starfighter are both banned from the event. All other cards and characters are welcomed to be played!

The full Details:

  • Saturday, February 23rd at Kingwood Hobbies in Kingwood, TX, beginning at 1pm.
  • $10 entry
  • Big prize support! Kingwood Hobbies is blowing out their Awakenings block prize support to make room for the new stuff. This includes multiple spot gloss cards as door prizes, multiple Awakenings era Quarterly OP Kit contents, and more.
  • Special Jank it Up, Fuzzball giveaways.  I’m looking forward to handing out some merch and/or an alt-art card to everyone who shows up.

Plus, worldwide streaming will be provided via AEGIS Creative Company.

So join us in February to play some truly janky decks as we celebrate the largest card pool the game has seen before rotation slices it down. Do you have what it takes to build a 40-card deck (without any repeats) around a mono-colored team? Can’t wait to see what the players cook up given this unique format. Follow the event on Facebook for future updates.

Note: This event was originally scheduled for Friday, Feb. 22nd, but was shifted to Saturday, Feb. 23rd. That date could change depending on FFG’s release date for Convergence, which at this time has not been set. 

Building a 45-card Deck

Here’s a Facebook Live video I recorded on February 3rd about me putting together a 45-card Yellow Villain Solidarity deck using only the cards in my collection. I hope to do one or two more leading up to the event. Give it a watch and let me know your thoughts on the resulting (and janky) deck!
