Classic Product Tournaments
These tournaments allow players the opportunity to compete with and earn previously released products on Magic Online. Watch for separate FAQ sheets about each classic product release event. Details for each Classic product tournament will be posted on the What's Happening page before they are scheduled to begin.
Product Release Events and Championships
Release events typically run for 1-2 weeks after a product first goes on sale in the Magic Online store. Details for each product release event series and championship will be posted on the What's Happening page before they are scheduled to begin.
Weekend Challenges
One Weekend Challenge will be offered for each supported specialty format (Standard Singleton, 100-Card Singleton, Pauper, and the current community selected format - Core Set constructed) each weekend. Each format's Weekend Challenge start time will rotate from week-to-week to accommodate players with different schedules. You can see the specific start times of each event in the Event Schedule Calendar.
