EVENTS
The Showdown Series is a Bushiroad-sanctioned series of tournaments that replaced the Championship program after the fourth season, consisting of Showdown Challenges and Grand Showdowns.
Each official store can host a Showdown Challenge once per series, and the champion of each Showdown Challenge will receive a one-round bye at a Grand Showdown of that series, in addition to promo cards and other prizes.
Grand Showdowns are highly competitive tournaments where players can win exclusive prizes, including an unsponsored invite to the next Bushiroad Championship Series World Finals.
Starting from Showdown Series 4, Grand Showdowns will require a participation fee, and players will receive exclusive participation prizes. The tournament will now be held once every quarter across all regions simultaneously.
All events will be open to players from around the world.
