As of 2012, the World Championship has been drastically altered alongside changes to the ranking system used in Magic: The Gathering. The individual World Championship is to be changed from a Pro Tour-sized event to a sixteen-player event, which shall be called the Magic Players Championship. The team event, formerly held alongside the individual event, will now take place before the individual tournament and will feature four-player teams instead of the previous three-player teams.

Famous quotes containing the word world:
“... there was the first Balkan war and the second Balkan war and then there was the first world war. It is extraordinary how having done a thing once you have to do it again, there is the pleasure of coincidence and there is the pleasure of repetition, and so there is the second world war, and in between there was the Abyssinian war and the Spanish civil war.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
