SAWQP Registration Information
Q: What is the SAWQP Playoff and how do I qualify to play in it?
A: Throughout the course of the 2025-2026 Organized Play season, Duelists have been earning World Qualifying Points by competing at Regional Qualifiers, Latin America WCQ – National, Dragon Duels, OTS Championships, and at the Yu-Gi-Oh! Championship Series. Whenever a Duelist places high enough in those events to earn an invite to the WCQ, they earn World Qualifying Points based on their standing.
On Friday, June 19th at the SAWCQ, the Top 16 Points earners from the 2025-2026 Organized Play season in Central America, based on the chart below are eligible to register for this special playoff tournament. Eligible Duelists can check in and register for the World Qualifying Points Playoff between 9:00 AM and 10:00 AM. The event is scheduled to begin at 10:30 AM
You can find the Top Points earners for the 2025-2026 Organized Play season here:

For example, if only 1 Duelist from Colombia is missing from the Top 16 Duelists then the next Duelist in line to compete will be the third place Duelist from Colombia’s leaderboard. Same example will apply for any other leaderboard. Duelists must register and be present no later than 10:00 AM in order to be called if there is an open spot. We encourage any of the Top Points earners from the 2025-2026 season to check in between 9:00 AM and 10:00 AM so that we can quickly fill any open spots if needed.
The 16 Duelists from the 2025-2026 season who attend the SAWCQ and register and claim their spot for the SAWQP, based on the chart above will then play in an Advanced Constructed, Single-Elimination Tournament.
