“Never. I’ll never turn to the Dark Side. You’ve failed, your highness. I am a Jedi, like my father before me.”

–Luke Skywalker, Star Wars: Return of the Jedi

At the epicenter of the conflict between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire are two people bound by the Force, and bound by blood: Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. On opposing sides of the Galactic Civil War, the conflict between Luke and Darth Vader isn't just one of duty, but also family. Fittingly, these central figures of the Star Wars saga serve as the focus of the upcoming Star Wars™: Legion Prime Championships. With the impending release of the Clone Wars Core Set and the newly updated Rules Reference, it's never been a better time to get in on the ground level and practice your tactics as a commander in preparation for these exciting events!

Previously known as Rally Point Qualifiers, Prime Championships are high-level events that draw in skilled players from all over to compete. But these tournaments are no mere skirmishes. Prime Championships are spectacular theaters of war in which commanders perform their duties on a scale like no other as they dispatch troops, issue decisive orders, and use cunning strategies in pursuit of victory. These events are a central part of the Organized Play path that leads to the World Championships, offering an invitation to the player who claims the distinguished title of Prime Champion.

Only through overcoming your adversaries on the battlefield will you be able to claim the exclusive prizes offered at Star Wars: Legion Prime Championships which have a special emphasis on Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader from the forthcoming Operative Expansions. Among these prizes are extended art cards, acrylic tokens, spot gloss cards, as well as unique prizes for the Prime Champion! Now, prepare your troops for the battles ahead!
