Vintage Cube League Ends at Downtime Tomorrow

Supreme Innistrad Remastered - One Day Left 

It's become a tradition to have a Gothic horror-inspired play experience during Halloween week, and this year is no exception. Presenting the Supreme Innistrad Remastered Draft League ... 

For one more day, you can try out the pick-two-and-toss-'em Phantom play experience featuring the best of the Innistrad setting. The entry options are 10 Event Tickets or 100 Play Points, and the prize table is the same as Cube League. 

But hurry, this League ends at tomorrow's downtime.

EVENT UPDATES 

Odyssey Block Keeper Draft League Starts After Downtime 

We're turning the clock back exactly 25 years and into the Premodern era for this week's Limited offering! Magic's first true graveyard set returns for a short stint, and the good news is you keep what you draft. Comprised of Odyssey, Torment, and Judgment – it's Odyssey Block Draft! 

Entry options for this special event are 15 Event Tickets or 150 Play Points. You can also enter with one of each booster and 3 Event Tickets. 

Prizes are as follows: 

Pack Wars Edge of Eternities Continues 

Pack Wars – the Magic Online space for Mini-Master – rolls on. Our meandering adventure across the multiverse continues with a trip to The Edge. 

The idea is simple – crack a pack, add 2 of each basic land, and play a game. In the Keeper League, you then crack another pack, edit your deck, play a game ... and keep going until you have opened 4 packs and played 4 games!  

This Keeper League is easy – 4 packs + 4 games (plus prizes if you do well) for just 4 Event Tickets or 40 Play Points! 

After Edge of Eternities completes on Thursday, November 12, the next set for Pack Wars will be Wilds of Eldraine.


Alternate Play Schedule 

Here’s a look at the schedule of events coming up. Each description mentions if the Draft is Phantom – cards won’t be added to players’ collections in Phantom events. All transitions take place at 10:00 a.m. PT unless otherwise noted.
