When and Where?

CubeOpen Hamburg will be held the weekend of September 27th + 28th, 2025 at the DLRG club house, Elbchaussee 351, 22609 Hamburg.

Doors open at 9:15 and drafting starts 10:00. Please try to arrive 15 minutes early to get settled in and not miss any cubing.

Structure

The format of the event will be nine rounds of Swiss rounds plus a top 8 playoff. The swiss portion is divided into three drafts, each featuring a different cube:
Two drafts on Saturday and one more draft followed by the top 8 on Sunday.

Top 8 will be single elimination vintage cube draft. The draft will be timed by one of our judges. Matches in the top 8 are untimed.

Players will be matched within their respective pods for each round, disregarding overall standings. Deck building and matches will be timed.

Side event drafts will be available for those not in the top 8.

There might also be some pre-show drafts Friday night – stay tuned!

Eat and drink

Cold drinks and coffee will be available for purchase at the venue for a small price.

There will probably be no lunch served at the event this time. We recommend bringing your own food or using a delivery service. Some snacks will be available, but unfortunately, we cannot provide food for over 40 people across two days.

Prizes

TBD

We will update this section with the final prize split as soon as possible.

Throughout the event you will be able to win prizes for completing small achievements. For example: if you for take 7+ damage from a single [[Dark Confidant]] trigger, you have achieved Greatness at any cost and will be rewarded accordingly.
