How the league works

Draft rules for Season 0 — expect changes as the league finds its feet.

The short version

1. Play Standard at any league event in Chicagoland.
2. Report your deck and record here afterwards. Photos encouraged.
3. Climb the leaderboard. Your best 5 events of the season count.

Joining

It’s free and there is no sign-up: your first report puts you on the leaderboard. Use the same name every time (ideally the one in your Companion app) so your results add up. The league code needed to report is pinned in the league Discord.

Points

• 3 points per match win, 1 per draw — the same match points Companion shows.
• Your league total is the sum of your best 5 events in the season, so a bad night never hurts and you don’t have to play every week.
• Ties are broken by events played, then match win rate.

Reporting and good faith

• Results are self-reported. Report honestly, including the nights you went 0–3: the metagame data is only as good as its losing decks.
• Organizers can import an event’s final standings from Companion/EventLink. Those records get a ✓ and override self-reported ones.
• Round-by-round opponent decks are optional but they are what builds the matchup matrix.
• Spotted a mistake? Report again with the same name and event to fix your own entry, or ping an organizer.

Events

Any recurring Standard event at a Chicagoland store can count, as long as it follows the Wizards of the Coast Standard format rules and the store is happy to be part of the league. Prizes and rules enforcement at each event belong to the host store and its judges.

Conduct

Be the opponent you’d want to sit across from. Cheating, fraud (including false reports), bullying or hate speech get you removed from the league.
