[SHOWDOWN]

[Zhonya's Hourglass]

A familiar gong signals a new era of showdown, after so long.

"Business is officially back, and I assure you, this time it's for real.

From now on, every winter will herald the arrival of a grand showdown.

For this upcoming event, the theme revolves around fire. While all are invited to participate, those with a mastery of fire magic, will be given special consideration.

This includes magical beasts.

If your performance meets our expectations, a fiery reward awaits you as recognition for your efforts. So, without further ado, I extend my invitation to one and all.

Who among you is ready to lose? Who among you is ready to win?
