The VML added so much to our community, and it is heartbreaking to see @magic.wizards.com take away their support.

We are sad to announce that we have been told by Wizards that they will no longer support us with either funding or invites to Organized Play events.

Without this support - especially the invites - it is impossible for us to continue, and there will be no more VML seasons going forward.
We are sad to announce that we have been told by Wizards that they will no longer support the VML program with either funding or invites to Organized Play events. Without this support - especially the invites - it is impossible for the league to continue, and there will be no more VML seasons going forward. Over the past five years, we’ve radically changed competitive Magic for the better. When we started the program with 26 players back in Season 1, we never thought that we would end up having served hundreds of competitors and with over a thousand people in our community. We have sent cohorts of people to the Set Championships, Regional Championships, and Pro Tour. As a result of our program, representation of people of marginalized genders at the highest levels of play has multiplied from a handful at each event to over twenty who will play at PT Chicago. Several of our team members and players have gone on to be hired to work at Wizards. We are also proud of the change we’ve created in the broader sense. The Magic community is a much more diverse, vibrant, and inclusive place than it was five years ago. The gender balance at in-person events has improved significantly, and the overall image of the game has changed for the better. We don’t claim to have caused all of that, but we are happy knowing our efforts have played a part. We want to thank all the organizations who have worked with us and supported the cause: Good Luck High Five, Lodestone Coffee, NRG, Team Arclight, MTG Melee, BOP!, and the many wonderful creators, personalities, and players who have contributed. To everyone who has been a part of the team here: you have all been brilliant, and without your passion and dedication we would not have made it this far. Every single one of you has gone above and beyond, giving your time and effort generously to the program and you should be extremely proud of yourselves. Finally, to our awesome community: we’re sorry that we couldn’t keep this projec…

Cutting support from an all-upside program like VML is preposterous.

So many serious competitors and community staples have come up through the VML. We will feel this loss immediately and in the long term.

I still miss the VML and you will 1000000% see me rocking the VML sleeves at every event I care about forever.

That’s right Wizards, clearly the way to get more women playing is to cut the measly amounts of material support you were putting into projects that actually made a difference, and instead make pink mana or whatever this is going to end up being! Because that’s What Women Want!! 😘💖💖💖💗👌👍

VML sleeves on camera at the pro tour is such a good statement to be making. Love it.
A screenshot of the Pro Tour at MagicCon Chicago featuring Etienne Eggenschwiler vs. Yuchen Liu. Etienne's deck is using sleeves featuring the VML logo on them.

Before they exiled the kids, they used them as hostages. I hate this so much. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...
Justice Department lawyers argued that "the man claiming to be V.M.L.'s father" had failed to prove his identity to the government despite requests that he present himself to ICE agents, adding that he had also "demonstrated considerable hesitation" regarding the inquiries into his immigration status. The man's lawyers included V.M.L.'s birth certificate in their fillings, which shows she was born in Baton Rouge and lists the names of both her mother and father.

Honestly it sucks cause I really felt like the @vmlmtg.bsky.social was my entry point to competitive Magic. I was really enjoying playing standard competitively and that community. But I'm not about to waste my Fridays in a sweaty basement with a bunch of asshole grinders at the LGS. Oh well.

Unfortunately we have been told that there will not be space for us to have our Safe Playspace at future MagicCons. :(
