Your Journey to the Top

From your local game store all the way to a Magic World Championship, Regional Championships and the Pro Tour offer competition and prizes every step of the way.

How to Qualify

• Top finishers at each region’s Regional Championships.
• Players with 10 or more wins at the previous Pro Tour.
• The 8 players who compete in the Magic: The Gathering Online Champions Showcase which grants invites to the corresponding Pro Tour
• Players with 39 Adjusted Match Points from the previous 3 Pro Tours.
• Players who reach 7 wins on day two of Arena Qualifier Weekends.
• The top 4 finishers from Magic World Championship XXVIII (2022) are invited to all Pro Tours in the 2022-2023 season.
• Members of the Magic: The Gathering Hall of Fame receive one Pro Tour invite per season.

Adjusted Match Points will reward players with high finishes over the previous three rolling Pro Tours—even across seasons. Adjusted Match Points are the number of match points earned in a Pro Tour after a player's first 9 match points. Additionally, players who make the Top 8 will be awarded an additional 12 Adjusted Match Points (or a total if 39, if the number would have been lower than 39), regardless of their final standings.

Additionally, to seed the 2022–23 season only, we will be awarding the following bonus invitations as we move from the Bridge Season to the new system.

Pro Tour 1 in 2022-23 Season

• The 32 players from the 2022 World Championship
• All players who finish 9–6 or better from the New Capenna Championship
• Bonus invitations at each Regional Championship (additional invites varying by region, but each region will have approximately 50% or more bonus invitations)

Pro Tour 2 in 2022–23 Season

• Players who finished 9–7 at Pro Tour 1
• Bonus invitations at each Regional Championship (additional invites varying by region, but each region will have approximately 50% or more bonus invitations)

Pro Tour 3 in 2022–23 Season

• Players who finished 9–7 at Pro Tour 2
• Bonus invitations at each Regional Championship (additional invites varying by region, but each region will have approximately 50% or more bonus invitations)

We're extending these invites to help populate the system with qualifiers and increase the number of players that are invited to the first season of Pro Tour events. These invites seek to populate the Pro Tour while we don’t have rolling Adjusted Match Point standings to look back at and work towards our target of about 300 players per Pro Tour.
