Earning Mythic Points will help players qualify for the upcoming Mythic Invitational Ikoria this May, and they also contribute to their 2020 partial season standings.

MTG Arena streamers and other players will share their Mythic Point Challenge journey under the MTG Arena game section on Twitch. Some of them may also produce additional recorded content on their YouTube channels after the event.

Here's how to qualify for the next Mythic Point Challenges, according to Wizards of the Coast:

The top 1,200 Mythic ranked competitors from Theros Beyond Death Season 2 (February 2020)—the current season until this Saturday, February 29—will qualify for the Mythic Qualifier in March; and the top 1,200 Mythic ranked competitors from Theros Beyond Death.
