The "Best of the Best" VtES tournament at GenCon is completely misnamed: It follows all DCI rules, but (are you sitting down?) it adds a FOUR CARD LIMT! You certainly can't get all of the "best" VtES decks to work in a 4CL environment. (The DCI rules include a uniform crypt, BTW. I believe that you can still mix V:tES vampires with AH vampires, though, even though the backs are distinguishable at 500 yards :-). All ante cards are banned, as are cards with "paralyze" effects, as well as the Monocle of Clarity. And, in addition to the 40-60 maximum split you note, there is a six-card limit on certain cards (like KRC, Parity Shift, etc.) - but that becomes moot under the burden of 4CL) -- L.
