The 2019 World Championship, the 27th Magic World Championship, will be held in December 2019. Sixteen players will conclude a groundbreaking year for esports and competitive gaming in Magic by vying for $1 million in prizes. Only the best MPL players and Challengers need apply.[1]
The sixteen slots will be spread out across tabletop Magic and MTG Arena qualification paths. They include:
- The 2018 Magic World Champion (Javier Dominguez)
- The winners of each of the seven 2019 Mythic Championships (four tabletop and three MTG Arena)
- The Top 4 MPL players with the most Mythic Points *
- The Top 4 Challengers with the most Mythic Points *
- If a player in the Top 4 has earned an invitation through another means, that qualification slot will pass down to the next highest Mythic Point earner.
