Starting today there is a new MTG Arena Workshop Series that will focus on different, fun formats with pre-made decks and no entry fee. The first in that series is going to be "Power and Glory", using a Brawl format. You will be able to choose between two decks, one with The Royal Scions as your Commander and the other with Syr Konrad, the Grim.
How do I Play Brawl?
When creating Brawl decks you select any legendary creature or planeswalker from standard to be your Commander (for this event the decks are already made), and anytime it dies it goes to the Command Zone and can be re-cast for an additional two colorless mana. You can find the complete rules for the Brawl format on the official website.
Workshop Series Dates
Here's what you can expect in the coming weeks.
- Feb. 24-26: Power and Glory (Brawl)
- Mar 2-4: Heros of Theros (Limited)
- Mar 9-11: Uncharted Paths (Standard)
For more details take a look at the Workshop section from the February State of the Game below.
Quote From WotC INTRODUCING WORKSHOP SERIES
We're also looking to expand the type of events we offer that don't require entry fees; bonus points if we can find some fun specialty modes that don't require deckbuilding either. Hence, Workshops. These limited-time events are intended to give players a small taste of a variety of formats, and the only thing you have to do is show up and play. In addition to no entry fees or deckbuilding required, Workshop events will also reward you for your first win in each event. These rewards will vary from Workshop to Workshop—some will reward gold, others XP, and some individual card rewards (ICRs).
For the February game update, here is a breakdown of the Workshop events we'll be featuring:
- Power and Glory: Brawl! If you're new to the format, we're providing a couple of decks for you to try out before Wednesday rolls around or you head over to the Guildhall.
- Heros of Theros: Play with Limited decks drafted by other players who managed to earn a 7–X record in their event. Have you ever asked yourself what a good Draft deck looks like? If so, this Workshop is for you!
- Uncharted Paths: Play with Standard Constructed decks purposefully designed to be a little off-meta. Sure, they'll never Top 8 a Mythic Championship, but we love them anyways.
Each Workshop will begin on a Monday and will be available for 48 hours.
