Announcement Time!
Guilds of Ravnica is almost here! This means that we'll be rolling out some fun things on MTGO to celebrate. Keep an eye on the website this week for an article about GRN happenings by Alli Medwin!
Legacy Cube
For those who have never played Legacy before, Legacy Cube is a great way to try out all of those super old cards you've heard about. If you haven't gotten a chance to try it out yet or are just absolutely loving it, Legacy Cube will be around until September 27!

M19 Regular redemption sets are currently out of stock and we will be starting the reprint process, which will take several weeks. We will announce the restock here the week before they are available. Thanks for your patience.
