We have made several changes to our normal event policies to ensure WPN members do not feel pressured to schedule in-store events and can remain compliant with local health and safety guidelines.

During Streets of New Capenna season, we will count metrics again for the following regions:

• The U.S.


• China


• Canada


• Europe


• The following Asia-Pacific Countries: Australia, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and South Korea

Until further notice, all events reported through Wizards EventLink, including Webcam and At-Home events, will count towards play metrics: Tickets, Engaged Players, and Activated Players.

In all other regions, events reported will not impact your play metrics or your product and promotion allocations at this time. You will be notified when events impact your play metrics again.

For up-to-date information on the status of in-store play and play metrics counting in each region, please review our play status page.

At Prerelease events, players crack open a Prerelease Pack, build a Sealed deck, and try out the set for the first time in a casual tournament.

Traditional Prerelease events (with rounds) and Player List-Only events (without rounds) are now both available to be scheduled from the Prerelease event template on Wizards EventLink.

At-Home and Webcam Prerelease

That date and time also apply to regions where in-store play is available, and organizers can limit the number of people in their store at any given time by scheduling as many events as they need.

We're continuing support for virtual tabletop events and other remote play opportunities through:

• Community channels like Discord (You can create a WPN-focused Discord hub with a single click)


• Remote paper Magic tool, SpellTable beta
