Melbourne, Australia
2020 Oceania International Championships
SM: Ultra Prism - Sword & Shield
• The 2020 Oceania International Championships was held in Melbourne for a second year in a row, but third time ever. It was a three-day event where anyone was welcome to play.
• Day 1 consisted of 9 rounds (Best of 3), in which 405 players competed in Day 1. All players with 19 match points (49 players) moved on to Day 2. Day 2 consisted of 5 additional rounds of Swiss, resulting in a cut of Top 8. Top 8 & Top 4 matches were played out that night, saving each division's finals for Championship Sunday.
• James Cox [Australia] made Top 8 with Cinccino Stall, but due to a decklist error, they were DQ'd from the event before Top Cut began playing. This resulted in all players from 9th-on getting bumped up by one position after the event was considered final.
