A Regional Championship is a premier-level event that draws players from across large areas and states or prefectures. These events are being run around the globe from May 1st through July 31st, where players will be competing for unique prizes, the title of Champion, and that elusive bye for National Championships. Regional Championships provide not only a place to compete for great prizes, but a chance to find new opponents and players who share your passions.
A National Championship bye is not the only prize up for grabs at Android: Netrunner Regional Championships. In addition to a poster and info sheet, each Regional Championship kit comes with exclusive prizes for up to 64 players.

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make it because of a date conflict. I wish I could go since it’s less than a hour away, unlike last year where all the regional were 5+ hours away. I would still like to contribute to the success of this event. Thanks for making that easier by providing fantastic prize support.
How are pre-registration numbers so far? It seems overall that the U.S. regional numbers have been lower than last year (except for the new Team Covenant store). That’s likely because there are more, so a lot of players may not be traveling as much. Best of luck, we got a good group here in Michigan to provide the core and hopefully a lot will travel from Indiana, Ohio, and Canada.
That’s a good question. I posted it on the Facebook event. I’ll try to update once I get a response. You may want to join the event if you’re on Facebook and get updates if you haven’t already.
I spoke with the store yesterday in person and they are expecting anywhere from 80 to 120. I doubt capping will be an issue, as it has been at “some other stores” in the past. I’ll get 100% verification up ASAP.
Hi guys. We haven’t set a cap on the Regional because we don’t expect more than 150 players. We can seat well over that because we have a 2000 sq ft gaming area. I’m very excited for this event. I think it’s the best game out there. Spread the word because this should be a great day of gaming!
I’m going to beat @Eternal_Games here, they did a great job data collecting and organizing for the tournament. Here is an excel sheet showing decks and ranks! Check out those top 8 corps!
