Start at the store
Shop tournaments are the volume tier: cheap, frequent and the only place to get repetitions against real opponents with a real clock.

Results only count toward your record when the event is sanctioned and reported in Bushi Navi. Kitchen-table wins are invisible to organized play.
Step up to Challengers Cup
The Challengers Cup is the high-stakes tier between store play and Masters, with its first season commencing in September 2026.
Masters League 26/27
Masters League began in November and pits top players globally against each other on the road to the first World Championship.
