It could also be possible to do some tournaments at local gaming stores. If there is one in your area, try asking them if they’d be willing to host one. Depending on when, you might even be able to talk Christopher into coming down to run it 
I noticed this at Gen Con too. So many booths, I’m sure, had fine games, and I would have been more-than-willing to sit down and play a demo of any game someone had approached me to play. I literally only walked past one other booth that asked me if I wanted to play their game. Unfortunately that other booth kept telling me their game was like a much better known game which made me wonder, as I left their booth, why I wouldn’t just go buy the game their game is like.
A local gaming store doesn’t sound too bad either, but a convention would be nice since I haven’t gone to one and it will give me the motivation to get out there and go. Anything in the Kansas/Missouri area would be the ones I could attend.
I’m not immediately aware of any dedicated gaming cons in that area, but there are new cons popping up all the time, and I’m sure we can find something that can host an event. We’ll definitely keep an eye out!
Well glad to hear it, i’m looking foward to being able to see you guys at one.
I'm rather new to SotM but i love it!
I have all the current expansions, and i was wanting to run a sanctioned tourny at my local hobby shop; is there any way you guys could let me know how to do it?
Well it’s cooperative so there isn’t really a tourney format for SoTM.
Tactics however can be competive so that is a tourney portion when it comes out. But GtG isn’t that big like Wizards or even Fantasy Flight so I’m not so certain ‘sanctioned’ tournaments with prize support will be a thing, at least not very often
I was thinking that you might be able to do something like duplicate bridge, where multiple identical games (same hero/villain/environment with decks stacked the same way) are set up and you create some criteria to judge the performance of one game against the others. Creating those criteria could be tricky, though (e.g. what's more important: finishing with the most HP or winning in the fewest rounds?)
Yeah after respond I g I realized how necro this thread was, and that was what Adam was actually talking about
Adam so rarely posts I was surprised!
I would imagine a hero draft woudl be the way to go.
With WotC and the mini-hero we'll be at 26, so 8 teams of 3, 6 of 4 or 5 of 5.
Then you have a set roster of villains to play round robin style, results tracked and scored, and then move into a playoff with identically stacked card decks.
