PHYREXIA: ALL WILL BE ONE ON MTGO STARTING NEXT TUESDAY​

The latest Standard-legal expansion, Phyrexia: All Will Be One, hits MTGO’s digital shelves next Tuesday at 10 a.m. Pacific time (18:00 UTC). Check out this article for updates on the following that will take effect at that time:
  • MTGO’s Art Bundles, available for a limited time in the Store
  • Event schedules and improvements on how they are displayed in the Play Lobby
  • Treasure Chests
  • Magic Online Player Rewards
  • Alternate Play
  • The latest suite of Avatars

DOMINARIA REMASTERED ON MTGO UNTIL NEXT TUESDAY​

For one more week we will be featuring the all-reprint set Dominaria Remastered (DMR). Magic Online will be treating that set as a cross between Cube and Standard – that is:
  • Boosters will cost $3.99 USD, the same as a Standard set.
  • Both a Draft league and a single-elimination queue will be offered, but they are keeper and cost the same as those of a Standard set (12 and 15 Event Tickets, respectively, plus the normal suite of alternate entry options).
    • The events run only until Phyrexia: All Will Be One events start next Tuesday, February 7 at 10 a.m. PT (18:00 UTC).
  • Challenge and Premier events this weekend will award booster and set prizes of Dominaria Remastered. Limited Preliminaries will use DMR for Sealed product – no change in entry options.
  • Treasure Chest contents now contain cards from Dominaria Remastered - be sure to look for the usual suite of extended-art and borderless cards!
  • Due to some technical limitations, we have removed borderless and retro commons and uncommons from DMR boosters (the slot where those would have appeared will revert to a regular common slot). We are shifting that group of cards to Magic Online Player Rewards – more details are in this article.

TWO EVENTS FEEDING CYCLE 3 REGIONAL CHAMPS THIS WEEKEND​

Your next opportunities to earn an invitation to tabletop’s Regional Championship Season 3 come up this weekend. First up is the Legacy Qualifier on Saturday, February 4 starting at 7 a.m. PT (15:00 UTC).

The sole entry option is 40 Qualifier Points, and the top 2 finishers earn invitations to the second Regional Championship of 2023 serving their country of residence (held in late spring).

The Super Qualifier’s entry options are 40 Event Tickets, 400 Play Points, or 40 MOCS Season 1 Qualifier Points. The Top 4 finishers earn seats at that same RC round and prizes pay out to the Top 128!
