Planeswalker Points is a worldwide system designed to reward you for playing Magic: The Gathering in DCI sanctioned events (where an organizer schedules and reports the event to Wizards of the Coast). All sanctioned events, from casual sanctioned events to Worlds will carry points.

Unlike previous systems that rewarded only winning, Planeswalker Points is based on playing. [1] Players earn points for every sanctioned event they join, and they earn even more for each victory. [2] The larger the tournament, the more participation points players receive, no matter where they finish. Special events carry a point multiplier.

Categories

There are three major categories:

  1. Lifetime: The total point obtained all time.
  2. Competitive: The total point obtained in a specific period, excluding casual events, Pro Tour, Worlds and World Magic Cup events. Which can be further divided into Seasonal Award points (which affects the number of Byes in Grand Prix) and Yearly Award points, to decide a player is eligible or not to participate the following year's World Magic Cup Qualifiers. The Seasonal Award points will be retired on November 2014, and the original calculation of Byes in Grand Prix will be merged into Yearly Award.
  3. Professional: The Pro Points obtained in a year's span.

Website

Players keep track of their Planeswalker points on the Wizards of the Coast website PlaneswalkerPoints.com. At certain point totals, players level up in the Planeswalker Points program and improve their rank. The ranks go all the way up from Prodigy (level 1-5) to Archmage (level 46-50).

The points needed to advance to the next level are as follows: [3]

Rank Level Points needed
Prodigy 1-5 1 points
Apprentice 6-10 3 points
Task Mage 11-15 5 points
Adept 16-20 15 points
Spellshaper 21-25 30 points
Guildmage 26-30 60 points
Invoker 31-35 120 points
Sorcerer 36-40 240 points
Battlemage 41-45 480 points
Archmage 46-48 960 points

Advancing to level 50 takes 1,920 points and is currently the final level possible at 1,920 points total.
