Not even heard of FR and strix isn't even out yet.
It's the most popular D&D campaign setting ever. We're getting a Drizzt Mythic, I know it.

What's got you way more excited for forgotten realms than Strixhaven? Not even heard of FR and strix isn't even out yet.
The Early Access program was part of the MTG Arena Creator Program, where it gave selected streamers and content creators fully stocked Arena accounts to show off the new set a day before the official launch of the set. The creators could build new decks to build hype for the set and be the first players to draft and played Sealed with the new cards.
Questions about whether the Strixhaven: School of Mages Early Access event was happening popped up on Twitter Monday as content creators had yet to receive any of the information they usually received confirming the event and their inclusion in it. As more and more streamers brought more attention to the situation, WotC finally sent an email to some content creators around 11:30pm ET stating that not only was the event not happening for this set, but the entire program was discontinued.
To compensate for the removal of the program, WotC will provide the creators 40 redeemable codes for Strixhaven booster packs on Arena. This information came two days before what would have been the date for the Early Access event, leaving many angered about the lack of communication as they planned their content around the event.
Wizards has decided to end the Early Access program.

LolOne of them probably said Drow should still be evil and they decided to drop them before FR came out.
The rumors I have seen is that Wizards is taking the money and manpower from early access and directing it towards more mainstream streamers and creators in order to attract a new audience.Can you explain what the issue is?

The problem is they left the community out to dry in the process just days before the event began.
A creator I follow called CGB did a video covering it and he is fairly connected to the MTG community. He has been apart of tournaments since he was a teenager.I see. It's a shitty thing to do. They could have at least split the support between current creators and the mainstream ones...
Codes for free packs, XP and cosmetics here! You might already know about these but I didn't and have claimed 18 packs in total! It's mental.

I'll admit that I tried about 15 different variations of "Play...." before I found this one.Great, thanks! I tried to Google them earlier today but couldn't find it.
I was today years old when I found out that it's now on the iPad :O I haven't played Magic for so long, literally been so busy with work. Looks like now's the time to do that! Thanks for sharing!Finally out for the iPad! Been waiting way too long for that.
TBH I tried like 4, lolI'll admit that I tried about 15 different variations of "Play...." before I found this one.
Maybe they are saving some other characters for future releases?Enjoying the new set on Arean but I wonder why in the D&D FR set they did use more iconic characters. Like Elminster. I see a lot of names I don't recognize aside from Drizzt and crew. And zero drow cards (aside from Lolth)? Wild.
Use it, or lose it!MTG ARENA: STATE OF THE GAME—JUMPSTART: HISTORIC HORIZONS
Now, on to what you've been waiting for: with this release, we are adding a 100-card Historic Brawl queue. That's it. That's the update.
Well, ok, maybe a little bit more. We've been pleased with the performance we've seen from our recent Historic Brawl events, and it's clear that there is a small but dedicated audience that's interested to keep playing in this format. We also saw a good response to our recent experiment with 100-card Historic Brawl events, and Historic Brawl will now default to being 100-card whenever it is offered.
Like we do with Standard Brawl, we will be using a matchmaking system that takes into account the power level of your commander to help ensure that matches are fairer and more fun for both players. Speaking of fair, some perpetual effects (especially toughness reduction) can basically shut down an opponent's commander. Locking out a commander is why Meddling Mage and Sorcerous Spyglass are banned in Brawl, so we'll be taking a similar approach with some perpetual cards. We're starting with banning both Davriel's Withering and Davriel, Soul Broker in Historic Brawl, and we'll be keeping an eye on the rest of the effects in Historic Brawl.
This queue will be up at least until rotation this September while we monitor how interest and play volume hold up for the format. Our goal is to leave it up if it can remain healthy and provide enough population for rapid, fair pairing. If you want permanent Historic Brawl, play it!
We will continue to offer the Standard Brawl queue as normal, and it will stay a 60-card format as it is now. Also, if you've been worried about Command Tower and Arcane Signet rotating out from Standard Brawl in September, fear not—we'll make sure those staple cards stay legal in Standard Brawl on MTG Arena.
No, they aren't.Can someone tell me how the hell do I make my head around coming back to this game? Just installed this after a year and there has been so many changes.
1. Are the Warhammer crossover cards there?
There's no modes with more than two players on Arena. You can play 1v1 Historic Brawl, which is a 100-card singleton format with commanders, but the card pool is limited a lot compared to regular paper Commander.2. Can I play Commander?
LOTR cards will slot right into any regular deck with other Magic cards3. Are the Warhammer and upcoming LotR cards considered it's own thing or they can be mixed and matched with other regular cards as well?
Quoting you because you know stuff - what’s the best thing to do to come back? Any mode, etc.? I see they added some starter decks. Any bundle that’s worth it?No, they aren't.
I am sorry, this exceeds my knowledge. I haven't played Arena in a year but I've been watching it on Twitch sometimes. Other than that, I just play paper Magic.Quoting you because you know stuff - what’s the best thing to do to come back? Any mode, etc.? I see they added some starter decks.

I forgot one format, Explorer. It's kind of like Historic allowing a large card pool to choose from, but restricted to only sets that were previously Standard-legal. This means it excludes all the specialty sets like the upcoming LOTR. A lot of people prefer it to Historic though.Quoting you because you know stuff - what’s the best thing to do to come back?
