Nezuko:
How 2 deck format works
1. When registering for the tournament you must choose 2 different clans but these clans may be from the same gift type. For example: you may use Royal Paladin and Shadow Paladin. On the other hand, you may not use 2 Royal Paladin decks
2. When signing up you must sign up one of your clans as a primary and the other as a secondary.
3. When the game starts, both players MUST use their primary decks for the first game.
4. The winner of the match MUST change their clan to their secondary clan while the losing player MAY choose to change to their secondary clan. Additionally, The player that won may not use the deck that they won with for the rest of the round
5. The objective of this format is for one player to get a win with both decks. For example if the player that lost the first game decides to change to their secondary clan and wins they must go back to their primary to win with that clan.

Example:

basically, say player A has Royal Paladin and Shadow Paladin
player B has Gold Paladin and Kagero

Player A beats Gold Paladin with Royal Paladin
Player A has to switch to Shadow Paladin
Player B chooses to stay with Gold Paladin, but has the option to play Kagero

then Shadow Paladin lost to Gold Paladin

Player A can't use Royal Paladin again because it won a game earlier, so they have to stick with Shadow Paladin
Player B can't use Gold Paladin since they won

so the last round will be the remaining two decks that didn't win a single game yet, which would be

Shadow Paladin vs Kagero
