Visual Issue with January Arena Open Qualifier Weekend Invitation Token

The Qualifier Weekend invitation token awarded during the January Arena Open event was inadvertently given incorrect visual details, resulting in the December Day 2 Qualifier Weekend invitation token displaying instead. This issue is cosmetic only. No action is required by players affected; the token visual will be updated to the correct February Qualifier Weekend Day 1 invitation token before the start of the event on February 17.
