Arena Championship 7
Arena Championship 7 took place on December 14–15, 2024. The format was Traditional Standard (Best-of-Three with sideboard) on Magic: The Gathering Arena. Day 1 of the event was 6 rounds of Swiss playing Traditional Standard Constructed. This was the first Arena Championship with the new structure, with Day 2 of the Event being a single-elimination Playoff for the Top 24 Players. The Top 8 Players after Day 1 received a bye in the first round and the 9th-24th played for the last eight spots in the Round of 16. There were no draws, intentional or otherwise, allowed during the Swiss rounds. Players were expected to play until a winner was declared.[1] The forty-eight competitors were headlined by former League members Arne Huschenbeth, Keisuke Sato and Matthieu Avignon, Pro Tour commentator Corey Baumeister, and Pro Tour March of the Machine Top 4 player David Olsen.
Twenty Dimir Midrange pilots registered the most popular deck going into the tournament; Red Aggro, slightly favored against Dimir, came in second with an aggregate of 17-20 pilots. For the Day 2 cutoff, three 4-2s got byes into the upper bracket, while seven of fourteen 3-3s were eliminated. Kasuhiro Hasegawa was the undefeated player of Day 1.
In a final matchup that defined the tournament, Sato on Gruul Aggro defeated Mikko Airaksinen on Dimir Midrange.
