Store Championship
The Store Championship is a two-day seasonal Magic: The Gathering tournament organized by the DCI.[1] The tournament is played in local game and hobby stores around the world, at the end of the Standard Showdown of each set's season.
Store Championship events are Standard format tournaments, using only the newest cards the game has to offer. They are a continuation of the Magic Game Day, which was held much earlier in the season. All participants receive a foil full-art promo preview card that showcases the upcoming next set (while supplies last). There is no additional card for Top 8 finishers. Instead, store champion playmats and program-exclusive deck boxes await those who emerge victorious.
The first Store Championship was held on December 30–31, 2017, as culmination of the Ixalan release.[1]
