En 2012 , Wizard evolue

1. The Grand Prix schedule is going to expand greatly in 2012—Wizards said their goal is to double the number next year, making weekends in 2012 without a Grand Prix somewhere on the planet a rare thing. That increased schedule will also provide more opportunities to expand the judge program. Additionally, the announcement said that there will be increased events for WPN stores with an expanded Grand Prix Trial program. Because of the increased number of events, the 2012 schedule would not be announced all at the same time.

2. Pro Tours will become private events, with less of the convention fanfare and public events the likes of which we saw at Magic Weekend Paris. The high level of play we have seen over the past seasons will remain the standard, combined with expanded online coverage of the Pro Tour. Players looking for public events, spellslinging, and artist signings will be able to fulfill those needs with the increased Grand Prix schedule, as those attractions become more of a regular feature at Grand Prix.

3. The release for New Phyrexia will be the last events to feature to large regional Prereleases in North America. With the summer release of the Magic 2012 Core Set, the focus for all new set celebrations will be at Wizard Play Network locations. Again, the expanded Grand Prix schedule is expected to fill the need for players looking for larger communal Magic experiences.
