Enjoy free, weekly constructed play with three best of three rounds in a league that tracks each set cycle. A season begins shortly after a new set launches and wraps up with a Top 8 playoff held just before the next set arrives. Participation earns one point each week and additional points are assigned by event software, with standings updated weekly. Prizing centers on the Top 8. The winner receives a booster box from the current set, second place takes a half box, and third through eighth each receive a quarter box. Participants can also expect weekly giveaways and promo cards. If there is a tie for the final Top 8 spot, a playoff will determine who moves on. Regular tournament players receive priority for preorders, with participation points helping set that priority.
