Alchemy Event: Can we get 7 wins?

Just getting back into MTG. Showcasing the new thopter deck in the Alchemy Event. What are these Play-In points for? P.S. I started playing MTG in Legends, played in live tournaments as a young kid then quit and sold my cards (40+ dual land and others) shortly before 6th Ed. Do I regret selling thousands of dollars of cards to a store in a lot package for $1000? Yeah. It still makes my stomach hurt thinking about it.
