KeyForge Celebration 2022 featured the introduction of Ghost Galaxy's vision for what Organized Play would look like going forward. Friday featured a Sealed Alliance tournament debuting Winds of Exchange, followed by an Archon and Alliance tournament being held on Saturday and Sunday. All three of these tournaments were held using a double elimination format, breaking from the tradition of using Swiss pairings for high level events. As players were eliminated, they entered a second chance event know as Second Æmber. Other events featured at KeyForge Celebration included Unchained Duels and a cooperative Rise of the Keyraken challenge.
