Tournament and Perfect Draft Refresh and Expansion

Nicolino Di Benedetto · 05-22-2026, 11:30 AM

Hello, everyone!
We hope you're having a great start to the holiday weekend! In the meantime, we have some big news about what's coming soon in regards to tournaments and drafts. We're aiming to have this ready for Tuesday, but we ask for your patience as there may be a delay.

This is what we have in store for tournaments and drafts. There's going to be an expansion of the number of both to help with fill times and availability of fun, new competitions. We are bringing in some new draft formats that you've been experiencing in PTCSes and pop-ups.

We will also have changes to the prize structures, too. Be on the lookout for that.
