MAGIC: THE GATHERING ARENA – REWARD DISTRIBUTION & DROP RATE INFORMATION

MTG ARENA BOOSTER PACKS

Let's start with booster packs! All cards in MTG Arena---including Wildcards---have an associated rarity level: Common, Uncommon, Rare, or Mythic. MTG Arena booster packs ("Packs") contain 8 cards* with the following rarity distribution:

• 5 Commons
• 2 Uncommons
• 1 Mythic/Rare*

Rares may upgrade to a mythic rare:

• At a rate of approximately 1:9.4 for Sets: Alchemy: Innistrad.

• At a rate of approximately 1:9 for Sets: Alchemy: Kamigawa.

• At a rate of approximately 1:8 for Sets: Ixalan, Rival of Ixalan, Dominaria, Core Set 2019, Guilds of Ravnica, Ravnica Allegiance, War of the Spark, Core Set 2020, Throne of Eldraine, Theros: Beyond Death, Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths, Core Set 2021, Strixhaven, Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty

• At a rate of approximately 1:7.4 for Sets: Zendikar Rising, Kaldheim, Innistrad: Midnight Hunt, Innistrad: Crimson Vow.

• At a rate of approximately 1:7 for Sets: Kaladesh Remastered, Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, Streets of New Capenna, Alchemy: New Capenna, Alchemy Horizons: Baldur's Gate, Dominaria United, Phyrexia: All Will Be One, Alchemy: Phyrexia, March of the Machine.

1 Mystical Archive card of any rarity appears in each Strixhaven booster pack, replacing a Common slot.

1 Praetor card from among the following (Sheoldred, the Apocalypse/Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider/Urabrask, Heretic Praetor/Jin-Gitaxis, Progress Tyrant) may replace the Rare slot of Phyrexia: All Will Be One limited booster packs, at a ratio of approximately 1:60. Reprint Praetors do not appear in store packs.

1 Retro Frame artifact of any rarity appears in each The Brothers’ War booster pack, replacing a common slot. Uncommons in this slot can upgrade to rares at approximately 1:3. Rares in this slot can upgrade to mythics at a rate of approximately 1:5.

Each Mythic Booster always has a Mythic Rare in the Rare slot, unless it's replaced with a Rare Wildcard.

Each Alchemy booster contains Uncommon, Rare, and Mythic Rare cards from the Alchemy set and Common cards from the related base set. Once you have collected a playset of all of the Rare cards in the Alchemy set, the Rare slot will pull from your uncollected Rares from the base set. The same is also true for Mythic Rares.

1 Shadows of the Past card of any rarity appears in each Shadows over Innistrad Remastered booster pack, replacing a common slot. Store packs can contain any Shadows of the Past card. A common or uncommon in this slot can upgrade to a rare at a rate of approximately 1:15 packs. Rares in this slot can upgrade to mythics at a rate of approximately 1:2.

Which Shadows of the Past cards appear in Shadows over Innistrad Remastered limited booster packs will depend based on which Shadows of the Past theme is being used. See the event page to learn which theme is currently being used in an event. For the Abominable All Stars! theme, a common or uncommon in this slot can upgrade to a mythic at a rate of approximately 1:15. There are no rares in this theme. For all other themes, a common or uncommon in this slot can upgrade to a mythic at a rate of approximately 1:15, and a rare in this slot can upgrade to a mythic at approximately 1:9. See this page for details on the contents of each theme.

Each Alchemy booster is related to a particular base set:

• Alchemy: Innistrad - Innistrad: Crimson Vow.
• Alchemy: Kamigawa – Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty.
• Alchemy: New Capenna – Streets of New Capenna.
• Alchemy: Dominaria – Dominaria United.
• Alchemy: The Brothers’ War – The Brothers’ War.
• Alchemy: Phyrexia – Phyrexia: All Will Be One

Wildcards redeem for any card you choose of the same rarity. One card in each rarity card slot (Common, Uncommon, and Mythic/Rare) may redeem for a Wildcard of the same rarity at the following expected rates:

We understand that Wildcards are really helpful for players to round out their collections. Each Pack you open that does not redeem for a Wildcard of a particular rarity will increase the drop rate for Wildcards of that rarity for the next Pack. Once you acquire a Wildcard of that rarity from a Pack, the drop rates will reset to the base rate. The expected rate seen above represents that average number of packs needed to open to acquire 1 Wildcard of the respective rarity.

MTG Arena 'WIN' Rewards

When you win a game in MTG Arena—any game—you’ll receive certain rewards. Below are the distribution and drop rates for the “win” rewards you may receive in MTG Arena.

Daily Win Reward:

Every day players can earn gold or individual card rewards (ICRs) when they win a match (up to 15 wins/reward instances) in any game mode with the exception of Play if you queue with a deck that is non-standard legal, Direct Challenge, and Bot Matches. Daily Win Bonuses are counted for wins that occur 24 hours from server reset (3AM PST). The table below outlines the reward(s) associated with each incremental win:

The ICRs included in Daily Win Rewards are uncommon standard-legal cards*, each of which may upgrade to a rare card (1:10).

Many Rare ICRs (including those obtained from upgraded uncommon ICRs) may upgrade to a mythic rare, the rate of which is dependent on the location it was acquired:

• Standard ICRs that upgrade from Rare to Mythic Rare are approximately at a rate of 1:8**.
• Historic ICRs that upgrade from Rare to Mythic Rare are approximately at a rate of 1:8**.

Each Standard set is weighted equally.

This rate can fluctuate at a nominal rate based on cards that are removed to do card banning.

NOTE: Event and Daily Win ICRs have different rates. See the Event section to view Event ICR rates.

MTG ARENA PROMO PACK

A player may only utilize a code once per week, as defined by the prefix. These codes will expire 2 weeks after the start of that week’s Midweek Magic event.

MTG Arena Midweek Magic Promo Pack Contents:

Appearance

There are two types of appearance rates for prizes. Appearance when granted initially and appearance when prize is going through duplicate protection.

Duplicate protection ensures that players will not get content they already own.

When a prize is going through duplicate protection, the appearance changes. Represented by where N is 143 and M is the total number of items the player already owns.

An example of duplicate protected prize appearances for all unowned prize content:

Players who own all the items in the chest will not receive any rewards. If you believe you have reached this state in error, please contact customer support and submit a ticket using the “Code Redemption Problem” form. https://mtgarena-support.wizards.com/

MTG Arena Wildcard Rewards

Whenever you open a Pack in MTG Arena, you make progress toward earning Wildcards. We call this the “Wildcard Track”. You can view your Wildcard Track progress on the Packs page, found on the Navigation Bar. The Wildcard Track displays both an Uncommon Wildcard Track and the Rare/Mythic Wildcard Track:

For each Pack you open, you earn 1 progress in both the Uncommon and the Rare/Mythic Wildcard Tracks. A WCR is triggered when you earn 6 progress on a track. When you fill your progress on the Wildcard Track, you earn a Wildcard Reward (“WCR”) and the Wildcard Track starts over again.

Additional information about the Wildcard Track:

• Uncommon Wildcard Track: Each player starts MTG Arena with 3 progress in the Uncommon Wildcard Track, so you can expect to earn your first uncommon WCR sooner than Rare/Mythic WCRs. That means you’ll earn your first Uncommon WCR after you open your third Pack.
• Rare/Mythic Wildcard Track: You’ll earn Rare WCRs at a greater frequency (4X) than Mythic WCRs. We’ve found that Rare WCRs are most needed by players to round out their collection, so we’ve created a system that redeems 4 Rare WCRs in a row before you will redeem your Mythic WCR.
