Remember that in the smaller venues you may have a better chance of qualifying, so keep that in mind.
You can also qualify at the end of the season, when the Venue Championships are playing.
These are the top 10 players in points at that specific venue playing against each other to win the Venue Championship. If there are multiple nights, then you may play against 20, or 30, or 40 other players for the title. These Venue Championships take place the first week of the new season, and points earned go toward the new season.
There is plenty of time and multiple ways to earn your way into the Grand Championship. Win a Grand Championship as Kerm King did for Winter Season ‘10, and win a place in the APC Hall of Fame! Good luck!
