Just For Fun , a room designed for players to play fun, casual decks against one another. This is the most populated room and has no restrictions on what format a player can host a game in.

Getting Serious , this room is provided as a step up from the Just For Fun room, but it is usually unoccupied. Tournament Practice is the most competitive room in the Constructed Open Play area, it is where the most serious players go to test their best decks before entering them into a Constructed event.

In addition to free casual play, official competitive tournaments take place around the clock. Tournament play includes 8-person constructed events in a variety of formats , limited sealed deck and drafts generally using the most recently released expansions , as well as larger tournaments that take place according to a regular schedule.

Up until Version 3, League play was another method of competitive play. These month-long events were sealed deck tournaments of players that allowed for intermittent play over a period of 4 weeks at the pace the player desired.

Initially they were only available for the sealed limited format. Once a player finishes playing their league matches, prizes are awarded and they can rejoin the league if they want.

Currently, leagues are available in a variety of formats, including Standard, Modern, Legacy and Limited Sealed. Sealed leagues also offer "Friendly" and "Competitive" alternatives with different prize structures.

The Friendly Sealed League lasts for a total of 9 matches and caters to a larger portion of the player base and offers prizes regardless of number of matches won.

In addition, after each "stage" of 3 matches, the player has the option to add a booster pack to their deck to make it stronger for the next stage either by using one from their inventory or purchasing one within the sealed tournament window.

Leaping Lizard Software LLS had just completed a software product Magic Interactive Encyclopedia designed to allow Magic players track which cards they owned and other cards that had been printed, designed to help with online play.

WotC was skeptical about whether such a system could be implemented. LLS then created a tech demo to prove to WotC that an online collectible card game could work.

Initially, the idea of charging for virtual goods, as opposed to a subscription model with unlimited access, was greeted with skepticism. Additionally, concerns were floated over how solid the server and trading code would be.

In , the Magic: The Gathering Invitational was held online for the first time. It was played on Magic Online each year from then on until when the Invitational was moved back offline.

Knowing that it was possible to translate Magic 's gameplay online through the work LLS had done, WotC started to work at redesigning the Magic Online client in Though they praised the "groundbreaking" work LLS had done, they opted to terminate their contract with them and bring the development in-house as to be able to focus the direction needed to improve the client for a global audience.

The first showing of the new team was to be the online release of 8th Edition in July , which was ambitiously scheduled to coincide with the paper release.

The goal was to release Version 2 of the software with new functionality and implement the changes in rules that the 8th Edition had brought. However, with the change from LLS to the internal developers along with the fixed deadline, a number of development issue arose that were not resolved by launch.

The game went into no-pay mode while temporary beta servers were opened to allow players to practice playing in for-pay formats. As a concession for these issues, Wizards planned to throw "Chuck's Virtual Party," a weekend of free tournaments after the problems settled down.

Unfortunately, it turned out that each user took up more memory in version 2 than the lightweight design of version 1. In retrospect, some have merely chalked the decision to remove Leaping Lizard up to hubris.

Wizards of the Coast has said that "Leaping Lizard's 2. It wasn't written with the goal of ten thousand users in mind, it was written thinking a couple thousand.

They decided to maintain version 2. The labors of this new project would be called Magic Online version 3, which was first announced in February The version 2 platform was shut down on April 9, , in preparation for the version 3 launch.
