Frequently asked questions

Unity League maintains an independent ranking based on player results from real-life Magic tournaments. Results may be reported by organizers or independently recorded by European Unity League from publicly available standings. Tournament organizers are not affiliated with European Unity League unless explicitly stated.

By default results receive the Regular multiplier. Organizers may request upgrades to award additional points and offer invites to the National Championship.

European Unity League may also classify major public tournaments for ranking purposes as Premier events. Side events at those tournaments are typically classified as Regular.

National qualifications are passed down to the next eligible player in this order:

  • If a player already has a qualification earned from a Premier event or a League final and then wins another qualifying event, that event's qualification is automatically passed down in the final standings of the event.
  • If a player already qualified via an event and then earns another qualification from the National leaderboard, this qualification is passed down the leaderboard.

Qualifications will not be passed down in any other cases.
