"Ten years have passed since the last whistle echoed in this corner of the world. A decade in which stadiums were devoured by the weeds and players became wandering ghosts. But destiny is a spiral of blood and steel. The sky turns red, the Mark burns again in your flesh, and Nuffle, the blind god, demands his tribute. Welcome back to the mud."
The chess clock is mandatory in all matches, with each player having one hour and ten minutes to play their 16 turns. When five minutes remain in the round's time, the referee will go around all tables telling players to even up turns. Once the time has elapsed, the referee will start going table by table closing matches, starting from the last table and working towards table 1, leaving the match as it stands without allowing a single further die roll.

To hire a Star Player, a team must include and develop a worthy counterpart. If a Star Player represents a specific position (for example, Griff → Human Blitzer), the team must include at least one player of that position who has been assigned at least 3 additional skills, at least one of which must be an elite skill, acquired during skill purchase, or a stat increase plus two skills. The Star Player will not take the field unless this condition is met.
Examples:
If a Star Player does not correspond to any position on the team (for example, Dribl & Drull, Morg, Cindy, Bomber):
The team must include two players, each with two or more additional skills (at least one of which must be elite) or a stat point.
These players represent the "worthy core" that has caught the Star's attention.
"Mirror Mirror on the wall... true hope lies beyond the coast."
Two Star Players cannot coexist in the same plane. If both coaches have the same Star Player, it vanishes in smoke and mirrors.
"The Eclipse does not forgive doubt, cursed coaches. Your standard armies will not be enough to survive the return. But even in the deepest abyss, destiny offers you an extended hand... or a claw. Here are two bonds, two pacts of power, that you may forge. But the price is high: you will not see their true nature, you will not measure their strength, you will not know their sins... until the contract is signed in blood. Choose wisely, for doubt is the first step towards total annihilation."
A SPECIAL Star Player (created by the referee) will join your team for free, not counting towards the initial 11, but counting towards the maximum of 16. This Star Player will be secret, as it represents a leap of faith. You must choose between the pacts:
SPECIAL ANNEX: "When shadows are long, even the small must make pacts with giants. The Sherrybowl tests not only muscle, but the will to survive. For those smaller-statured teams, the night brings not only terror, but the opportunity to reclaim what is theirs. Causality has brought you here, and Nuffle has a different plan for you."
Stunty teams will use both Star Players on the team. If either of them dies during the tournament, the Stunty team will suffer an additional penalty for betraying the pact (gaining Loner 5+ on the whole team and gaining Animosity).
