Mythic Invitational
- PVE esports tournament
- How it works:
- July 25-August 8: group runs mythics and submits their 5 highest Mythic Keystone runs to Blizzard.
- Blizzard chooses top 8 teams from each of the 4 regions (Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific and China)
- September Regional Playoffs - single elimination until 2 teams remain - each region gets one streaming day. Blizzard chooses the dungeon (presumably different each time so no one can prepare?)

September 16: China

September 23: Europe
September 24: Americas

- grand finale: remaining 8 teams battle it out

- Prizes: 1st: $50k 2nd - $20k, 3rd/4th $10k, 5-8: $2500
