Player of the Month Changes for 2026

Player of the Month participants there are some great changes coming to Player of the Month (POTM) for 2026!

We are increasing the store credit payouts for the Month End Winners, and extending the prize pool from Top 4 to the Top 8!   That’s right; MORE Overall Store Credit will be given out each and every month, and now it’s the TOP 8 earning that store credit!

We have combined the four Constructed formats (Standard, Pauper, Modern, Pioneer) into one easy to follow leader-board and all the Limited formats into another leader-board. This will simplify the tracking and reporting of POTM events. We have also replaced the free entry portion of the payouts with increased store credit and increased placing for the Top 8 finishers in each of the two categories.

Thanks for an incredible 2025 of Player of the Month, and we look forward to an amazing 2026 with you all!

Player of the Month is a fun way to reward players for playing and doing well in Wizard's Tower In-Store Magic events!
There are now four ways to win with Player of the Month Leaderboards for Pioneer, Modern, Standard/Pauper***, and Limited (Any Draft or Sealed Magic Event) Magic Events! You can even play in multiple formats and have a chance to win prizes for being at the top of each Leaderboard!

How do you earn these points do you ask? Easy, come and play Magic tournaments at Wizard's Tower.

For every event they participate in players will receive 5 POTM points! Players must play a  complete round to qualify for the Attendance points. You can also earn points by winning matches during each event.

During each constructed or 3 or 4 Round Magic event players will receive points for the following:

- 3 POTM Points for each match won.
- 1 POTM Point for each match draw.

For example, if you end up 2-2, you would receive 11 total POTM Points. 5 POTM for participating in the event and 3 POTM points for each match won.

To ensure fairness in our events, specific point totals will not be shown or made known during the final week of each month. (Placement will still be shown)

*This includes matches played in the top 8 of a tournament [Match must be played to have points count]

***Points Are Updated Every Monday***

****Please Note that it is important that players DO NOT CHANGE , or USE MULTIPLE NAMES for events During any One Month as their points will be collected as separate persons and corrections to posted standings may not be corrected after the fact.
