May 19 is the launch date for Alchemy: Strixhaven, MTG Arena’s digital-only release, with the first three cards revealed and more details due next week.
May 15-17 will center on Secrets of Strixhaven Sealed, spanning an Arena Direct, a Best-of-Three Qualifier Play-In on May 15, and a Qualifier Weekend on May 16-17.
Six wins or more in the Arena Direct earn Secrets of Strixhaven Play Booster boxes while supplies last; three to five wins pay out gems and MTG Arena packs.
June’s competitive schedule shifts to Standard and Best-of-One play, while May season rewards on May 31 range from 1 pack at Bronze to 5 packs and 1,000 gold at Mythic.
