2017 Candidate Stats
Editor's Note (July 10, 2017): After this data was published, it was discovered that Grand Prix Melbourne 2009 was not being accounted for in these statistics, in which candidate Tomoharu Saito finished in 2nd. That Grand Prix Top 8 is now reflected in his statistics.
The following is a breakdown of the candidates for induction in the 2017 Magic Pro Tour Hall of Fame. All statistics are through June 25, 2017.
Key
MEDIAN: Midpoint of career Pro Tour finishes (half above, half below)
3-Year Median: Top median finish taken from three consecutive seasons (to qualify, must have played in a number of events in a three-year span equal to the total number of events minus three)
POY Top 10s: Number of times a player finished in the Top 10 in a Player of the Year race.
Top Finishes: These are cumulative counts by result finish (for example, a Top 8 finish is also counted as a Top 16, Top 32, and Top 64).
WC: Appearance/Top 4 finishes at the current version of the Magic World Championship (2012-current, including the Players Championship)
Final Days: The number of times a player has reached the Top 8 of a Pro Tour or old World Championship (1996-2011), the Top 4 of a team Pro Tour, and the Top 4 of a World Championship from 2012-present.
