The New New for Magic Online
The New New for Magic Online was how Magic Online announced a change to their new player onboarding experience in April 2024[1].
| “ | The TL;DR is that we added five ready-to-play decks to the free account in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pauper, and Pioneer, and shifted the value in the Account Upgrade Kit from general game resources to new-player-friendly event entries and a metric ton of cards for the collection. | ” |
Play Points were replaced by New Player Points for new accounts, and five monocoloured Preconstructed decks for five different formats were added.[2]
A new Commander Workshop package was also added as an additional entry point for people wishing to play Commander on the platform[3][4]. This also provided five extra preconstructed Pauper decks[5].
