Dominion Tournament
2018-06-28 18:30 - 22:00 (America/Chicago) | Game Point Cafe, 107 S 11th Street, Nashville, TN, 37206, United States
In 2008, Dominion was the deck building game that launched the genre. On Thursday, June 28th, we will celebrate ten years of Dominion with a Game Point tournament. The format will be three rounds of Swiss competition, cutting down to a final four player game. The winner will get the latest expansion, Dominion: Nocturne (or another expansion of their choice).
You already need to know how to play Dominion to participate, there won’t be any teaching rounds. However, we will have a Dominion teaching night on Sunday, June 17th and again on Sunday, June 24th to get you ready for the event – so come out early to hone your skills!
Registration will begin at 6 pm, games will start at 6:30 pm. You can reserve your spot in advance by RSVPing in the form below. We will also take walk ups as we have room – if you have a base set of Dominion, bring it along so we can accommodate more people!

Fight the mid month doldrums at Game Point by coming out for Free Game Night!
Over the past several months, we have amassed a large bunch of games that we can’t use in the library — promotional copies, donations by friends of the cafe, and more. Some are new, others are used – we need to clear out some space and you can reap the rewards. How it works: come in to Game Point after 7 pm on Friday the 13th and then sign up for our mailing list. Once you do that you get to pick a game from the pile o’ games – one game per person, while supplies last!

Draft and a Draft - Magic 2019

Come out to Game Point for a Draft and a Draft. We start off with a Magic the Gathering booster draft, then add on to that a draft beer from one of the many craft beers we have on tap (or a Kombucha or Nitro Coffee or . . . we have options). Top that off with three rounds of Swiss with the deck you drafted, each win getting you a bonus pack. It all adds up to a fun, fun night. $20 (tax incl.) gets you the cards for the draft, any prize packs, and a draft beer.
We aim to get started between 6:30 and 7:00, but come out a little early for casual pick up games while you wait!
Whether you are currently into Magic, or looking to have some fun with the game that you loved to play back in middle school (high school?) (college?) – come on out for an evening of mana and memories.
(As long as we have six players we will hold the draft. Must be 21 or over to play.)
