Limited Resources 857 - Secrets of Strixhaven Sunset Show (and Arena Updates!)

We do appreciate it.

Patreon Question of the Week.

This is a generalized question, because it didn't come from, from a specific person, but [laughs] apparently it's a question we needed an answer to.

"Do I get prizes for playing in the Arena Limited Championship?"

[laughs] Well, there we go.

[laughs]

Yeah.

And so I'm just gonna jump right in there.

So here's...

For those of you who... [laughs] It's funny, 'cause I was gonna say for those of you who didn't, either don't play on Arena or weren't, didn't wanna play in this whole qualifier or whatever thing, it, it actually is worth taking a look at here.

Because it's a little complicated, but when you understand what was there before, it makes perfect sense.

Basically, over the last weekend, we had the Arena Limited Championship Qualifier events.

These are, uh, what used to be called an Arena Open.

These are the ones where, like, if you do really well, you can win 2,000 or $1,000.

It...

Before, they were split into two days.

Day one was sealed.

You could do it as many times as you want, and if you got to the magic number, then you would wake up early the next day, do a draft.

If you got enough wins in that, then you would do one more draft, and if you got enough wins in that, that's where you became, uh, eligible to win the 2,000, 1,000, or less prizes.

So that's how that used to go.

We did that for a few years.

It was a su- successful format.

But now they have changed it primarily in two ways.

This one and the one earlier this year were both under this new format, and the new format is the same in the sense that the top prizes are 2,000 and $1,000, but they're all booster draft.

There's no more sealed.
