- Health & Safety: The latest COVID protocol for Graceland can be found at this link: https://www.graceland.com/covid
Given the ease of the process at Gen Con, to acquire a Marvel HeroClix: Marvel Studios Next Phase K.E.V.I.N. ultra chase at the World Championships sign, up at Event Registration at any point between Thursday and Saturday with photo ID. Sign-up spots will be limited by the number of available figures, with additional sign-up spots designated ‘wait list.’
Due to limited quantities and in the interest of getting these figures to as many different people as possible, anyone who traded for a K.E.V.I.N. at Gen Con will be put on the sign-up Wait List.
On Saturday, September 14, between 4:30pm – 5:30pm, bring any Marvel Studios Next Phase chase rare (plus card) to the designated trade-in spot, and you may swap it for a K.E.V.I.N. ultra chase.
If any figures remain, wait list sign-ups may trade between 5:30pm – 6:30pm while supplies last. Wait List will be processed in order of sign-ups, with deference given to players who did not get to trade for a K.E.V.I.N. at Gen Con.
Limit one per person. Name on sign-up list (or wait list) must match ID of person trading. Trade-in available only while supplies last. If you’re unable to attend Memphis this year, don’t worry! We will have additional K.E.V.I.N. trade-in programs at future events.
Opportunity to trade for K.E.V.I.N. figures may be modified, without notice, on WizKids sole discretion.

HeroClix Team World Championships
ENTRY: $180 per team of 3
Format: Sealed – A team composed of three players will receive one brick of DC HeroClix: Masters of Time boosters for sealed play, consisting of 8 regular boosters and 1 Jurassic booster (containing one colossal figure and two regular).
Legal Game Elements: Only game elements that are pulled from the booster packs received at the event may be used on each player’s team. No outside game elements are allowed to be added to a player’s team, except standard objects and maps. Like all events happening at the 2024 HeroClix World Championships, only 2×2 maps will be legal for the Team World Championship.
Sealed Packs: At the start of a HeroClix team sealed event, each team of three players will receive 8 sealed standard HeroClix booster packs and one sealed Jurassic booster. When instructed by tournament staff, all teams will open their packs and confirm the contents. A team may request a replacement pack if one or more figures in the pack is in an unplayable state. This includes but is not limited to: dial/dial sticker missing; dial sticker does not match the figure (this can be confirmed by comparing the collector number on the top of dial and the collector number printed on the dial sticker). If a figure’s sculpt is physically broken (i.e. missing a head/arm etc. or missing the sculpt entirely) it is still considered in a playable state. A figure being considered in a “playable state” is at the discretion of the tournament staff. A player must return all contents of the pack to receive a replacement pack. Replacement packs are only available as supplies last.
Team Building: Once all teams have opened their packs and confirmed their contents, each team will have 15 minutes to build three separate 300-point forces using the figures pulled from all nine booster packs. If using standard objects, each player must follow the normal rules for including objects on their force.
Team Designation and Force Assignment: Each player will use one of the three forces that were built. They must use the exact same force they chose for the entire tournament. In addition, each team must assign a designation (Player ‘A,’ Player ‘B,’ and Player ‘C’) to each player on their team. This designation cannot change and they will remain that designation for the entire tournament. Each round, player ‘A’ will play against player ‘A’ on the opposing team, and so on.
Prizing (provided in triplicate; one copy of each listed item per player on the team):
Prizing for this event is cumulative; top finishing players will receive everything at their finish-bracket, plus all prizes for lower brackets

Pulp (teams):
ENTRY: $60 per team of 3

Each team designates an ‘A’ player, a ‘B’ player, and a ‘C’ player. Events consist of 8 teams playing 3 rounds of Swiss. Teams play ‘A’ player vs ‘A’ player and so on.
