How MTGSL Works

1
Create your league or organization

Pick a format, set scoring rules (wins, kills, achievements, whatever), set season length. Group multiple events under an organization profile for your LGS or club. Five minutes.

2
Invite players

Share the link. Players join, import decks from Moxfield/Archidekt. No app to download. Works in person or on SpellTable or Convoke.

3
Play

MTGSL handles pairings, standings, tiebreakers, stats. You show up and actually play.

Automatic Scryfall validation on submitted decklists. Catch banned cards before they hit the table.

AI Newsletters Pro

One-click AI-generated weekly recaps. Standings, highlights, and results sent to your whole league.

Built by a Player

MTGSL was built by Karim Awad, a Magic player running a sealed league on a spreadsheet who hated every minute of it.

Pairings by hand. Tiebreaker math. Card pools in a notebook. He was spending more time managing than playing. So he built the thing that should have existed already.

Every feature exists because a real player needed it, not because a SaaS company discovered Magic players as a "market." The only Magic the Gathering event app you'll ever need.

All Formats Supported

Commander / EDH

Custom scoring, automated pods, achievement tracking, deck import. Your pod system minus the spreadsheet.

Sealed

Card pool tracking, progressive pack additions, full tiebreakers. Upload pools by photo or Moxfield.

cEDH

Competitive tools for competitive play. Same pairing flexibility, tuned for cEDH. Judge-approved decklists, advanced ELO.

Draft

Run weekly drafts without weekly admin. Swiss pairings, standings, match history.

Constructed

Standard, Modern, Pioneer, Pauper. Swiss pairings, deck verification, metagame tracking.

Works online (SpellTable / Convoke), in-person (LGS), or hybrid. If it's a Magic league or tournament, MTGSL runs it.

FAQ

Ten minutes. Create a league or tournament, set rules, share link. If you can build a deck, you can set up MTGSL.

They get live leaderboards, stats, ELO, and match history. They'll check standings on their own instead of asking you. Constantly.

Lots of scoring options and more updates coming! MTGSL automates the math.

Not unless they want additional features. Players can always join for free. Only organizers pay if they manage more than one league at a time, and only for Premium features.

Yes. Create an organization profile for your store and group all your events (FNM Commander nights, sealed leagues, store championships) under one branded hub. Runs alongside WPN events without interfering.

Challonge and Tournament.gg run single brackets. MTGSL runs leagues: full seasons with standings, ELO, pod balancing, deck tracking, newsletters, and playoffs. It's also built exclusively for Magic, so it understands sealed pools, Commander pods, and cEDH scoring out of the box. Not a generic bracket tool with MTG bolted on.

Yes on both counts. Managers can add late-joiners at any point in the season, and reinstated players are worked back into the pairing queue automatically. No manual schedule surgery required.

Your league deserves better than a spreadsheet.

You built this league because you love Magic. The weekly admin shouldn't be the reason it dies.
MTGSL handles the pairings, scoring, standings, and stats. You handle the playing.

Set up in ten minutes. Free forever option. Your first league is live today.
