Session starts 18.00 (please check event listing on the Grim webstore for final details)
Magic Presents: Open the Archive invites players to draft Secrets of Strixhaven, but with a twist. Mystical Archive cards—some of the most exciting pulls in each pack—can be played in any deck, regardless of color, opening new strategies and letting players fully enjoy every Mystical Archive card they draft.
Players begin each game with an emblem that states:
Mana of any type can be spent to cast Mystical Archive cards.
Special drafting rule: With each player's first pick from each pack, they also take the Mystical Archive card from that pack.
Players who finish the event with a winning record (having more wins than losses) receive a blind-pack challenge coin featuring one of five Mystical Archive art designs. *
Drafting Procedure
Players select two cards from each booster before passing the rest.
Pack-1: pass left; Pack-2: pass right; Pack-3: pass left.
Deck Construction
After drafting, players build a 40-card deck using their drafted cards plus basic lands.
Match Structure
Play two rounds: first round with initial pairings, then winners pair off and others play each other.
MTG Arena will be promoting the in-store Magic Presents: Open the Archive event and will reward players who participate in at least one of these events with a Ral Zarek avatar in the game. To receive the avatar, players must register for the event using the same Wizards Account they use to log into MTG Arena. The avatar will be delivered to their in-game player inbox within one week of the event.
