We had a long discussion about the role of L2s and whether or not someone without prior experience should be able to go from Uncertified to Level 2 without ever having worked a Comp REL Event, or even any events at all. This is one of the most asked about requirements for L2s, so we want to take a moment to address this. You will notice that while a specific number of events is not mandatory, you will need to work at least one (maybe more) Competitive Event with a Level 2 or Level 3 Judge in order to get your review. You must hold an active Level 1 certification, complete the non-elective branches of the Level 2 Skill Tree, and have a recommendation review from judging together at a Wizards Sanctioned, In-person Competitive REL event written by a Level 2 or Level 3 Judge in the previous 12 months. The Level 2 process is also remaining the same. If you already purchased your membership new this year, since you paid the previous membership price, you will still be eligible for the old 2021 welcome bonus, but please remember the welcome bonus must be redeemed at a 2021 conference. Starting today, the cost of an L1 membership will be lowered to $75 USD. For new members, once you have all of the prerequisite classes completed, and an endorsement review from an L2 or 元 judge, the membership tab on your profile will allow you to add the L1 membership to your account.

The process for Level 1 candidates will not change from current requirements.
