Hey all! Dropping this here as well.

I'll pass it along and have someone look into it!

@Padishar:

Amazing news. I'm very much looking forward to the Draft Arena Open.
But where exactly is the terms&conditions that shows the countires of which residents are eligible for money prizes?

You can find the terms and conditions here.

In just a few short days, the next game update hits Magic: The Gathering Arena, and it's bringing both new cards and new ways to play. Trust us, if the cards in Historic Anthology III don't give you flashbacks to some of the most iconic cards and creatures in MTG's history . . . we don't think anything will.

And if that's not enough to convince you to keep reading, perhaps the Arena Open—and the opportunity to win monetary rewards at home in your pajama pants—will keep your finger squarely on the scroll bar.

Come what May—it's State of the Game time!

HISTORIC ANTHOLOGY III

If you happened to miss both our announcement stream as well as the card previews, here's a quick summary of everything you need to know about the latest Historic anthology coming to MTG Arena later this week: Historic Anthology III introduces 27 news cards to both MTG Arena and Historic play. It's got Shrines! It's got Flashback! It's got creatures you control have flying, first strike, vigilance, trample, haste,...

I'ts probably because the file you're uploading is too large. There is a 20mb file size. I'll chat with the team and see what we can do.

@PeppermintLarry:

There was a rather large required download of close to 3.5 GB this morning to Arena.
But I can't seem to find the patch notes or any information pertaining to the download anywhere.
What did we just download?

It was to fix a bug that some people were running into.

If talking like that got you banned, half the people on this forum would be banned.
I'm not kidding. I got banned for basically calling wizards a bunch of morons. That was it

^^ That's not critical anymore but swearing.
I dont know where you're from, but the word Moron is not swearing by any means. Real swearing is bleeped out on these forums anyway

Whether you think it is swearing or not, it isn't allowed. Insulting someone, even staff, is breaking the Code of Conduct. If you'd like to refresh yourself on the rules you can find the Code of Conduct link at the bottom of the page. :slight_smile:

Folks are allowed to be upset, rant, or call for whatever demands... But if you include insults in your posts it gets removed. Please treat others with basic decency, even on the internet!

My favorite loss wasn't really a beat down, but just a fun instance that I'll always remember.

It was towards the end of my work day, so I thought I'd play a quick game on MTGA. Well we were both playing janky token decks, so our "quick game" ended up lasting TWO HOURS. We both had crazy board states and way too much life so the game wasn't going to end any time soon. My coworker finally told me to surrender because the other person deserved it (and at that point it was probably 7:30pm so we were the last people in office). It was a really fun match and they definitely deserved the win for putting up with my shenanigans that long! Read more

Is that even an official page? And if it is that is a bad way to handle communications.
There is a huge link to that page from the forum homepage. It's the first thing you should check when something's wrong with Arena. Also, if you check official WotC posts in forums, which are sorted in chronological order, link available from forum homepage, you see Lexie mentioning about daily deals and also sharing the status page link.
I'd call that sufficient communication, although an in-client message would have been optimal.

Every time we do in-client messaging, some people say that they hate it haha. It all comes down to personal preference. The status page is our official place check, or our twitter. If something is posted on the status page then it gets posted to the twitter as well.

Daily Deals look a little borked? The status page probably has the answers that you seek.

@TheBlackSquirrel#66193:

This forum makes it seem like the patch is done, and the game should be up and running. So, how long before we can actually play again? I'm getting tired of loading it up and getting the SYSTEM IS DOWN message.

The game should definitely be operational. Could you walk me through what is exactly happening to you?

@Johehan#75353:

Same here, system is down for maintenance.

What region are you in? Any details that you can give me would be great, so we can look into this a bit farther!

Forum Streamline Icon: https://streamlinehq.com

Thanks for letting me know, everyone! Restart the client and you should be able to get back in. :slight_smile:

(Note: It may take a few minutes but should be fixed. Grab a snack or something, then come back and try again.)

@Tamiyo's Toyboy:

My checking for updates is currently at 5mins 12secs and counting. Will update when it eventually finishes

I mean, there's an actual update that it is checking for right now, but going forward it shouldn't be a problem. Definitely keep me posted though!
