Draft Master —The 2015-16 Draft Master title, and the World Championship slot that goes with it, is awarded to the player with the most match points in Booster Draft matches at all Pro Tours in the season (a maximum of 72 match points are possible in a season).
Constructed Master —The 2015-16 Constructed Master title, and the World Championship slot that goes with it, is awarded to the player with the most match points in Constructed matches during the Swiss rounds at all Pro Tours in a season (a maximum of 120 match points are possible in a season).
Mid-Season Master —The player who is leading the Player of the Year race after the second Pro Tour in the season will be awarded a seat in the World Championship. For the 2015-16 season, this means that the player who is first place in the Player of the Year race after Pro Tour Oath of the Gatewatch will be invited to compete in the World Championship.
Outstanding Hall of Famer —This seat in the World Championship will be awarded to the player from the Pro Tour Hall of Fame who has the most Pro Points accumulated at the end of the season.
At-Large invitations will still be part of the World Championship, as any player who would qualify for the World Championship via more than one of the titles awarding a slot will create an At-Large seat.
With these new seats replacing the current At-Large invitations, the 24 seats in the 2016 World Championship will be awarded to the following:
(4) Winner of a Pro Tour in the 2015-16 Season
(1) 2015 World Champion
(4) Pro Point Leaders from North America

(1) 2015-16 Outstanding Hall of Famer

You have to take the 'Rumor' in Rumor Mill with a grain of salt. It's not like the WotC previews are rumors either, that doesn't mean they, like the 'Rumor' in this topic, aren't newsworthy. Think of it as a News Mill
