Drama over conceding matches at Regional Championship Montreal for a Magic: The Gathering Pro Tour 2023-2024 season invite has ended, but no rules have been changed. Draws and concessions have been in the MTG hot seat before at high-level tournament play, especially when a seed invite is on the line. The Pro Tour helped remove some of the controversy by allowing players who hit 12 match wins an automatic advancement to the top eight playoffs. But Regional Championship organizers, like the recent RC in Montreal, are allowed to have their own rules in place. This led to a verbal agreement between MTG players Brian Bonnell and Eduardo Sajgalik, in which one would concede if their final match of the time went to time, allowing the player with the stronger board state to advance and earn a Pro Tour invite.

Ligue 1 has been struggling with the stigma of being called a “farmer’s league” ever since Paris Saint-Germain’s big money project took off. With the release of the EA FC 24 Ligue 1 Team of the Season, we can’t really blame anyone for dropping the disparaging term on the league. EA FC 24’s selection of all the best players in France is conclusive: PSG is the farmer and every other team is the farm. Of the 23 players on the squad, eight are playing for Paris Saint-Germain. That’s just over a third of the total number of players, and as predictable as such a lineup was, it’s still amazing to see just how much of a grip the current champions have over Ligue 1.
