In plain English

Fantasy Flight’s Season Two goal is 100 Qualifier Points (QP) for a Day 1 invitation to the Galactic Championship main tournament. QP come from Planetary Qualifiers (Top 4 always; Top 8 at 33+ players; Top 16 at 65+; 500 QP season cap from Planetaries only), Sector Qualifiers (four per main set), Open Events, and the single season Regional Championship. The 2027 Galactic Championship is May 21–23 at the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim. Event tickets (General through Prestige) go on sale separately from main-tournament qualification — tickets alone do not put you in the main.

What to do

  1. Grind Planetaries

    Play store-level Planetary Qualifiers. QP now scale with player count, but you can’t bank more than 500 QP from Planetaries for the season.

  2. Hit Sectors and Opens

    Sector Qualifiers are the big two-day stops (Baltimore, Melbourne, Minneapolis, Wrocław and more on our calendar). Open Events run alongside Sectors and other majors for extra QP.

  3. Regional Championship

    Season Two has one Regional Championship, held in Europe on the opposite seasonal timeline from Galactic. It awards a large QP payout.

  4. 100 QP + buy your badge

    Hit 100 QP for the Day 1 main invite. Separately buy a Galactic Championship ticket when sales open (Nov 13, 2026, 10 AM CT for 2027). Global Top 32 on the QP leaderboard get offered paid flight and hotel.
