The rounds are winding down, and people are dropping left and right to salvage whatever is left of this fine Saturday. Of course, the field it still buzzing with the hopes and dreams of those 'on the edge'.
A lot of questions have been ask about "What is it that you win?", "Who deep does the money go?", and "What about product?". Well, Upper Deck has come through with their answer:

Win a spot on the Pro Circuit! The top 10 finishers win invitations to the exclusive UDE Pro Circuit, which features regular $250,000 tournaments around the world.

System card Collectible Vs. System t-shirt Vs. System custom metal deck box

im guessing it's the cash + the boosters and not an, one or the other option lol.. But what's 48 packs, when you've got 2,500$ in your pocket? ^_^

Oh Sorry for the double post but i just noticed the 'jumbo art' card they're talking about is that CoTa you've got shown there.. That looks pretty tight.. It makes the card look more artistic rather then a game card.

And it's Red Collector i.d. looks tight too lol. Once again sorry for the double post.

omg, im drooling over that card right now. I want some >:(

that CotA is sweet. did everyone get CotAs, or were there different "supersize" cards?

It was only CotA. And we didn't get the t-shirts or the metal boxes either, I'm disappointed :P

yeah.. I saw those. they were pretty cool as well.

The deckboxes won't actually be done until mid-July, but I think we can probably retroactively send one to the 64 appropriate people from the $10,000 Championship at Origins.

Same with the t-shirts.

I am holding 4 extended-art Savage Beatdowns right now. It will be a future Judge Reward card.

Wow, that is great you guys are going to retro this stuff to the Philly players as well:ermm:

Oh well, I guess that is what happens when you jump in too early...

Nope. Some UDE people and judges had them but none were given to players.

Jeff, you're such a tease! Now we can see who Hulk is 'savagely beating down' on. :)

That would be sweet if we could get that stuff when it gets finished. I was looking forward to the t-shirt and the deck box :P Looks like I'll have to keep up with the judge stuff so I can get one of those Savage Beatdowns now too :D
