Hey
#MTGO
Vintage Cube players (this means you,
@lsv
). We've updated the Vintage Cube collation to include 83.6% less bling. Known side effects are crisper draft selections, decreased match times, and a 13% increase in forcing Storm. Or something... Go have fun.
Magic Online Players: Do you like Vintage Cube? What about a -free- Vintage Cube?
This Wednesday we gave every single paid Magic Online account this token. This token will give you a free Vintage Cube Draft this year while it's up December 22nd - January 12th.
Happy Holidays!
Due to an issue with Distant Memories it has been banned in Modern, Legacy, Vintage, and Commander until we can deliver a fix. Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention.

& the
#VintageCube
that starts tomorrow, so we've reduced the cost of the MTGO Account Upgrade Kit. Now you can create account for $0 & then unlock chat, trade, and additional store purchases for only $4.99 USD.
Good news! All active, fully-purchased MTGO accounts as of yesterday will be granted a Vintage Point good for one free Vintage Cube draft (not just those subscribed to emails that already got the Point). (1/2)
X spells are great because of their versatility at different points of the curve. But what if they were versatile... and super chonky? Take a look at Unbound Flourishing from

Tomorrow we’re rolling out a feature that will allow players to block trade requests directly from request windows. We also recommend using the “Only allow buddies” feature in the “Buddies, Clan, and Chat” settings page if you’re experiencing issues with requests during play.
Due to an issue with Gyrda, Doom of Depths, we're temporarily banning it in Legacy. Players who have the card as part of their Legacy League deck will be removed from the league, have their entry returned, and be granted 3 packs of Ikoria within 48 hours.
An issue is affecting MTGO systems and our ability to mitigate the problems and communicate to you all about them in-client. We are actively working on this! Stay Tuned here for updates
Dear
@Jbrostoff
We have been formally asked by our Discord Community to pass along this message
"Please stop winning so many trophies in the vintage cube because you have achieved the magic number"
Our work here is done.
Sincerely
