I think #MagicArena should have a random deck mode. You queue up, you get paired, it chooses one of the decks in your collection at random (any format), you don't know which until your mulligan decision. (People with < 10 decks get starter decks added to their pool)

To finish my run at #Kaldheim limited, I decided to yolo some gems away at the Sealed Arena Open! Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qyjl8Rzdga4

Friday night Kaldheim sealed! https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #kaldheim
I played two sealed pools today, both felt decent but didn't do so well, mostly because of my own bad plays =/
Drafting Kaldheim ep9 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #kaldheim
Looks like my internet isn't very good for streaming tonight though =/
Managed to play 2 drafts, but both had terrible outcomes. I did take local recordings, but I'm not gonna bother uploading lol
Drafting Kaldheim ep8 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #kaldheim
Ended up having to cut yesterday's stream short because of technical issues. Draft deck felt decent, though the run started poorly.
Drafting Kaldheim ep7 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #kaldheim
Ugh, I continued to be terrible
I drafted two BW decks today, both performed terribly. Or I did, whatever.
Drafting Kaldheim ep6 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #kaldheim
Today was another double draft day. One of these was the worst Kaldheim run so far, the other was a bit better. Guess which is which!
Gonna draft some more Kaldheim, keep me company if you like: https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #kaldheim
I got the lantern again, but this draft didn't go as well as the last one. Might have needed more lands.
Drafting Kaldheim ep3 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #kaldheim
Wasn't able to screencap the results, but this draft went quite well! Tergrid's Lantern is definitely a bomb, and even the squirrel overperformed I think.
Drafting Kaldheim ep2 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #twitch #mtg #magicarena #kaldheim
Today's draft went slightly better than the last one, though I still lost to some mana issues because I went for the greedy 5-color snow build.

Drafting Kaldheim ep1 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #twitch #mtg #magicarena #kaldheim
Ran RW, only managed a meager 3-3, but that's plenty since I feel like I drafted terribly lol.
Streaming some late-night Kaldheim sealed! https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #twitch #mtg #magicarena
I ended up playing a dumb 3-color deck and only went 2-3 due to mana issues and being unable to kill big dudes. Draft next week probably!

Ah, that's good to know! Thanks
Posted on r/MagicArena: Foretell and Revealed Cards in Hand on Arena
I'm wondering how Arena will handle using Foretell when some of the cards in the opponent's hand are revealed to you, since the card you exile with foretell should be hidden information. i.e., if I thoughtseize you and you're holding 3 different foretell cards, then during your turn you pay 2 and exile one of them, the other 2 should no longer be revealed to me, since I would be able to deduce which card was exiled.
Have they made any statement about this? I'm not super confident they'd handle it well lol.

I canβt relate to this request (I guess because Iβm spiky), but Iβm always curious whenever this comes up: are there other ccgs that do this (having systems that reward things other than winning, aside from daily quests)?

For people like me who dislike watching videos: Before you start drafting a set, craft all the common/uncommon cards from the new set, so that each common/uncommon you open in draft adds to the vault percentage.

Streaming some Kaladesh Remastered draft! Watch me be terrible https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #mtgkld
As predicted; I was indeed terrible. Draft seemed to go well enough, but I made too many mistakes I guess? Seems like this format is not for me.
