Season Rewards
Players will receive their rewards for the February 2026 season at the start of the March 2026 ranked season (12:05 p.m. PT on February 28).
You must have played at least one ranked game in the respective format to receive seasonal rewards.
- Bronze Reward: 1 Lorwyn Eclipsed pack
- Silver Reward: 1 Lorwyn Eclipsed pack + 500 gold
- Gold Reward: 2 Lorwyn Eclipsed packs + 1,000 gold + Spell Snare card style
- Platinum Reward: 3 Lorwyn Eclipsed packs + 1,000 gold + Spell Snare and Figure of Fable card styles
- Diamond Reward: 4 Lorwyn Eclipsed packs + 1,000 gold + Spell Snare and Figure of Fable card styles
- Mythic Reward: 5 Lorwyn Eclipsed packs + 1,000 gold + Spell Snare and Figure of Fable card styles
Card styles are cosmetic options only; they do not add any cards to a player's collection. There is no benefit to acquiring a card style more than once. If you achieve Gold Tier or higher in both Limited and Constructed, you will only receive one copy of the card style.
Qualifier Weekend Invitation
Players who finish in the top 250 of Mythic Tier competitors will qualify to participate in the Qualifier Weekend. Matches that are finished prior to 12 p.m. PT on the final day of the current season will count toward final season ranking for that month, which determines invitations to the next month's Qualifier Weekend.
Qualifier Play-Ins
Players can earn the Qualifier Token for entry to a Qualifier Weekend by reaching maximum wins in a single course of a Play-In event that feeds that Qualifier Weekend.
There are typically two Qualifier Play-Ins each month:
- A Best-of-One event is held on Saturday, seven days before Qualifier Weekend.
- A Best-of-Three event is held on Friday, the day before Qualifier Weekend.
Learn more on the Qualifier Play-In Information page.
Information on what the Qualifier Weekend feeds, its format, and other details are available on the Qualifier Weekend Information page.
