I still miss the spectator mode, especially for tournaments.

[werbearjack]

I'm constantly impressed by Arena and the fact that it actually works with Magic's complex rules. Your programmers are doing a great job.


Of course I have my gripes with the ever decreasing value of the mastery pass - but management decisions are not the fault of the people doing the actual work on the game.

I'd still like to see a code in every pack of real cards where you get a pack in game or a couple hundred gems, something. I still have a very difficult time paying money for something digital that isn't a small amount (if I want to quickly get new decks to play/try when new sets release). I'd actually be more likely to buy more real packs of cards too.

Please add game log so we can see some things that we might have missed like scrys and top bottoms.

[albertofernandez]

Will we ever see multiplayer game? two headed giant or multi brawl? That'd be amazing!

[gabrielamaro]

Thanks for your hard work on adding a much requested feature of the game! 8 player drafts are gonna bring a lot of people back to the game. I only wish whoever ran the monetization portion of Arena cared as much about the players....

[LegenVD]

Awesome update, can't wait to draft!

[elzero]

Give us a spectetor mode (with no peak on hand card), so many tournament could be showing on twitch and make the game more relevant

[ONKery]

please, balance the mastery pass. it was lackluster to begin with. why take away from players when there is no real economy? I mean, I really like the idea of wildcards but since you can't trade cards it's pointless to give players less and charge them the same.

[karlgrylls]

when will you fix the mastery pass?


And most important? When will the Giant Killer get his own animation? It's a shame he didn't get one but other stupid cards that didn't deserve any got their own one

[VictorVirgolino]

Great Job Guys! Good to see 8 man Draft finally in Arena !

[burnedelite]

Let's be real, it's Ikoria, go big.. except for the mastery pass. Let's shrink that down and make it the same price

[flamestunts]

goading wizards into finally getting Arena on the phone, now we just need to get them to give us ffa brawl 24/7

[evilgenius]

For the love of god, PLEASE give us a way to set a default basic land art! It's incredibly annoying to either remember to turn off "suggest lands" or remove all the basic lands from my deck and replace them with the version I wish to use. I prefer to use either unhinged or TBD full-art basic lands and when I saw that setting a default sleeve style had been added to the game, I quickly went to the basic land UI and was just as quickly disappointed.

[halligalli]

Looking big! Can't wait.

Suggestion: Please make it possible to pull the lower part of the deck builder up and down, to adjust the size of the screen parts as needed, would be much appreciated with complicated decks.

Cool, but as a Magic newb, player drafting might end up being a disaster for me lol. Appreciate the work that went into MTGA for Ikoria update though and the updates for mobile/MAC versions of the digital game are appreciated.

[jamesevans]

If we’re getting Amonkhet Remastered, is there a chance we’ll also get the basic lands from that set as well to go with it? I have the cycle of Amonkhet lands from an event a while back but what I’m really hoping for is those full-art lands with the Bolas horns monument in them, they’re my favourite

"Pioneer Set Remasters"
Okay, so now we know Legacy/Vintage in 2031 confirmed.

[gladbandanna]

Thanks guys! Excited about the Mac version!

1. Is there a way to draft with 7 of your friends or are the player drafts random?
2. When will gifting be implemented (e.g buying gem packs to friends as a gift)?
