This page lists the players who are known to have participated at Pro Tour Dallas, and those who were eligible but choose not to attend.
There were three main methods of earning an invitation to the event:
- High placings in previous Pro Tour events
- Through a qualifier tournament
- With a Top 25 DCI rating in Standard
In addition to the main event, there was a supplementary Classic (Type 1) tournament for the top 128 Classic players as rated by the DCI. Players needed to be qualified for both events in order to play in both.
