Has anyone gotten into the Arena closed beta? They just did an invite wave today, and I'm registered as "jms".

Merry Christmas to you as well! I hope that everyone is enjoying the holidays (and the holiday cube...)

I'm glad that you sent this, because apparently they emailed me about a week and a half ago, but it ended up in my spam folder. I just signed the NDA, so as soon as I have a screen name I'll let you know.

No worries. It looks like there isn't an option to friend folks yet (someone can correct me if I'm wrong).

Merry Christmas, everyone! I haven't actually signed up for Arena; is it worth it?

What do you have to lose? If you've got a relatively new PC, go for it.

Installed the beta tonight and played a couple of matches. I'm on as Aardvark. I built a BWg deck that's mostly vampire tokens, but that splashes Rites of Itlimoc and Thundering Spineback for some crazy shenanigans. I built the deck in about five minutes though, so the mana is horrible and I need to balance 2-drops with removal, etc.

One really great thing about the game is that there's no Temur energy deck :)

My crazy deck is a Mardu control thing with the 20 damage red sorcery (compasses to ramp), and the win conditions are Blasting Cannons (the red enchantment flip thing) and two copies of Huatli. I need more copies of Settle the Wreckage to make it optimal, and I haven't played it a ton, but it feels pretty good. It's bad against counterspells, but no one should run them because they're bad. It doesn't scoop to the mythic idiot dinosaur, which I think is the requirement of a control deck in this weird format.
