CHallengers!
In Challengers!, you build a powerful deck of warriors and battle opponents in fast-paced duels. This deck-management game challenges you to recruit the right cards, remove weak ones, and outmaneuver your opponents to capture the flag. With the Beach Cup expansion, you'll compete in the Giga-Tournament format where every match counts. The game combines strategy, luck, and tactical decision-making—can you become the ultimate champion?

About the tournament
We host daily tournament sessions in our dedicated tent. The focus is on competition and camaraderie: players face off in intense one-on-one battles while cheering each other on. A session runs with up to 16 players competing in the Giga-Tournament format. Our volunteer manages the tournament bracket, explains the rules, ensures fair play, and presents prizes to the winners. Whether you're a seasoned strategist or trying the game for the first time, there's a place for you at the table.
