Prizes for the 2018 MKM Series Power 8

After the final event of the 2018 MKM Series, the eight most successful players of the season, according to the MKM Series 2018 Leaderboard, will be known as the MKMS Power 8 and will receive Cardmarket credit just for attending stops of the 2019 MKM Series. Each member of the Power 8 will receive between €125 and €300 at each of the first five stops where the player participates in at least one main event.

Finish:
Credit:
1st Place €300 at each of the first five stops attended
2nd Place €200 at each of the first five stops attended
3rd & 4th €150 at each of the first five stops attended
5th – 8th €125 at each of the first five stops attended

That means we're handing out a total of up to €6,500 for the eight most successful players of 2018's MKM Series!

How to Earn Leaderboard Points

  • Whenever a player takes part in a main event of the MKM Series 2018 for the first time on any given day, regardless of the size of the event, the player earns 4 points.
  • The points specified below are awarded to main event top finishers in addition to these 4 points.
  • If a player manages to get a record of 4-0 in a Grand Trial or Challenge tournament at one of the stops of the MKM Series 2018, they'll be awarded 2 points.
  • As we want the series to conclude with a bang, a 1.5 multiplier will apply to all points given out at the sixth and final stop of the 2018 MKM Series. (For example, if 250 players show up for a main event, the winner will receive 30 points for his finish instead of the regular 20 points and will receive 6 instead of 4 points for participation.)
