  MTG Summer Ladder: Play More, Climb Higher

  The MTG Summer Ladder is back—ready to turn your “I’ll just rally” plans into a full-blown ranking obsession. This flexible singles league lets players set their own matches, explore courts across the tri-state, and log results all summer long. Win when you can, chase who you must—and come September, the top 8 players in each division advance to playoffs to battle it out for the title.
