Midweek Magic is a weekly event taking place Tuesdays to Thursdays in MTG Arena where players can enjoy casual games of online Magic in a variety of formats with no entry cost. Players can earn individual card rewards (ICRs) and in-game cosmetics for wins.

Midweek Magic began as FNM at Home in March of 2020, developed to keep the fun of Friday Night Magic events alive when players couldn't visit their local game stores. Thankfully, in-store play slowly resumed in many locations, and Friday Night Magic returned.

We didn't want to lose the fun and community around FNM at Home, so we updated our FNM at Home event to take place from Tuesdays to Thursdays and renamed it Midweek Magic. Now, you can enjoy Magic during the week on MTG Arena and then connect with your friends at your local game store for fun, in-person Friday Night Magic events, too!

Midweek Magic Schedule

Midweek Magic events begin on Tuesdays at 2 p.m. PT and end on Thursdays at 2 p.m. PT (UTC -07:00).

  • January 7–9: Pioneer Masters Phantom Sealed*
    Open six Pioneer Masters packs—with all three Pioneer Masters bonus sheets available—and add basic lands to make a 40-card deck, then play against other players as much as you want.
  • January 14–16: Momir*
    Use the emblem, discard a card, and pay to create a token copy of a random creature card with mana value X. Every turn is a surprise!
  • January 21–23: Cascade Brawl
    The first time you cast a spell each turn, you'll get to cast another, less expensive card from your library without paying its mana cost. What a bargain! All you'll need to play is a 100-card Brawl deck.
  • January 28–30: Historic Pauper
    Bring a 60-card Historic deck that contains only commons and basic lands. Look for some common ground with all those cards you've drafted and build something new!

*Cards used in these events are not added to your collection.
