Valet de Coeur Montreal MCQ

Le Valet d'Coeur is proud to announce our first Mythic Championship Qualifier to be held at the Montreal Cowork in Montreal, QC. This event features a large Standard tournament, with a cap of 170 players, and a Modern Horizons draft side event in the afternoon.

The Head Judge for this event will be Robert Hinrichsen.

CALL TIME

Judges will be expected to be on site and ready to work by 8:30 AM. Judges will not be required to assist setting up the hall but expect some light tasks in the morning like setting the table numbers, placing pairing boards, etc. Judges are also expected to stay until at least the end of the Swiss rounds and assist with cleaning and breakdown. Based on previous events, we can expect the Swiss rounds to end around 8:00 PM but please note that the actual finish time might be different.

ALL JUDGES WELCOME

We are looking for judges of all levels. Judges staffed for this event will be working at Competitive REL and applying the IPG, all while being friendly and customer service focused. As this is a Standard event, being familiar with the format and all the interactions involved is highly recommended.

JUDGE UNIFORM

Judges are expected to wear proper judge attire, as outlined in the official judge uniform guidelines here (under the section entitled "The black judge shirt"). In particular, judges should always strive to maintain a clean and professional appearance when working the event.
