Thanks to everyone for the fantastic support for Legacy here in Arizona. The 2014 Legacy Series exceeded all of our expectations. We visited many stores and traveled all over Arizona throughout the year, so it really was a team effort by the Magic: the Gathering community in Arizona to make this happen. This wouldn’t have been possible without the players and stores supporting this amazing format.
Today, we are excited to announce our plans for the AZMagicPlayers.com 2015 Legacy Series, which will kick off at ManaWerx on January 3rd, 2015. Please read on to see how we have structured next year’s event – we hope to see you all there for another exciting year of Legacy!
1. Two 2015 Championships!
That’s right! We’ve decided to split up the year into two different seasons, Summer and Spring. Each of the seasons will consist of 3 “Classic” events, with the typical $15 entry, and concluding with a seasonal championship with a higher entry fee. This allows us to satisfy the demand for more higher stake Legacy events, rather than just the one at the end of the year. The Championships will still be an open event for everyone, so no need to qualify to become a Legacy Series Champion.
2. Legacy Series Masters!
Do you really want to prove your Legacy prowess? Look no further than the Legacy Series Masters, where only the best of Arizona’s Legacy scene will compete for some special prizes. The exact details on how to qualify for this free, invite-only event will be announced later, but really, the best advice we can give you anyway is play a lot – and win a lot!
