This page contains the rules for playing in DCI-sanctioned tournaments as well as checklists for Magic: The Gathering card sets.
Magic tournament players and judges should be familiar with the Magic Tournament Rules and Infraction Procedure Guide - the latter document explains what players and judges should do when things go wrong during a tournament.
DCI members playing in high-level Magic tournaments should review the Premier Event Invitation Policy.
Magic Online players should follow the tournament rules found in the help files of the Magic Online software, which differ slightly from the tournament rules for physical Magic tournaments.
