This is the last week of this season's Events? So that's the last of the bonus XP? That'll put me at 73 when I finish today's quest and this weeks XP quests. I guess that's the end of the line for F2P people.

Seems like I should hit 100 before the rotation in October.

Speaking of the rotation, this is something I've personally been waiting on for since July:
Quote:
Renewal – We'll be adding some special events and rewards for players to help "renew" their collection for the new Standard environment as well as to show our appreciation for all of your support. We expect to have more information on this system sometime in August!


Has WotC expanded on that yet? August is almost over! For those curios, that quote is from about 3/4s of the way down the page on this link: https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/a ... ne-27-2019


Free packs for the (IRL) money we've spent on the current rotation? Free ICRs per rare/mythic rare that rotates owned? (ICRs would be any rarity maybe?) Trade in old rare/mythic rare for the equivalent WCs?

No info yet on Renewal except that they will tease it early Sept and it will happen on the 26th at rotation. Oh, and they showed a glittery green icon that said you have recieved a renewal reward.

Ah, I found some more information about Renewal.
Starting Sept 26th, your first login will provide 10 Rare ICRs.

From Sept 9th-26th; every 2 consecutive wins in Standard 2020 Events will award 200xp.

Eldraine Set Mastery; Levels 1-25 - Without Renewal Rewards = 12 Eldraine Packs 2 Orbs. With Renewal Rewards = 14 Eldraine Packs, 2 Orbs, 4 Standard Packs, 10 Uncommon ICRs

so the 2020 event started... anyone making a sprint to get to 100 mastery or are you just staying in ranked for rewards, since it seems it's easy enough to reach 100 in the next 15 days?

I think most everyone I know is hitting 100 pretty easy.

Right - so Mastery now goes to 110 and then infinity. With rewards being an uncommon card each level after 110.

There are 30 orbs this time, 6 pr color.

for each color, the first orb will get a cosmetic for a common, the next 2 will be for uncommon cards, then 2 for rares and lastly one for mythic rare.

The pass costs 3400 gems, and will net you 2000 gems in total once you've passed rank 86.

Also, there's a fox.

I seem to be getting 25xp for each win right now, besides the standard irc or gold rewards. New change I guess.

So rotation ends soon, how's everyone faring?

I believe I hit 122 or 123 so far and I've just done quests / weekly wins and a few daily wins here and there.

Any guesses to next run rewards? Pets seem to almost have disappeared(I don't use one) and I forget/can't be bothered with sleeves - any ideas for more enticing rewards?

Also, I'm hitting 80k gold to pop on boosters as soon as rotation hits, I've got everything I want out of the current set and 10+ rare wildcards saved up. Should let me get a running start I think.

[edit] closing in on the rotation - seems like my final stats will be around:

rank 134
gold ~81.000,-
gems 5630
rare wc 25
mythic wc 26

Looks like Mastery Pass and 80 packs right out of the gate.

I am at about 110. I try to hit all the weekly wins but I miss maybe a quarter of days (and if I am just playing for the daily wins, I stop after 4). I also missed a full week over the holiday.

I'm at 118.

7k gold. 1k gems. 0 rare, 0 mythic rare, 121 uncommon and 75 common wildcards. Historic, and popping Ravinica packs for duallands wiped me out.

Preferred Pronoun Set: Mr.
120 as of last night. 27,000 gold, 1,175 gems, 154 common, 204 uncommon, 8 rare and 9 mythic.
Just drafted ranked again last night and stopped before assembling the deck so I expect more gems soon and am planning on getting the pre-order packs when I get off work as it is payday. I spend so much time at work these days so I bought the pre-order packs for Eldraine and it was the proper move. I was able to build two competitive decks right off the bat after rotation without grinding, which of course I don't have time for any more.
It is said that money = time and that can be very true with this game. If I hadn't done that there's no way I would have been able to compete in our league matches and that is one of the only reasons I even find the time to play the game anymore beyond dailys.
