What does the #AC8 Explorer Metagame look like?

Rakdos Demons has been the top deck of the Arena format that mirrors Pioneer, with Unholy Annex creating an entirely new shell.

Mono-Red was next up with Izzet Phoenix not far behind, and in all 17 archetypes are represented!

...And we are LIVE! Welcome to Arena Championship 8, where 50 competitors are competing for their share of a $250,000 prize pool!

The format is Explorer, which will look quite familiar to Pioneer players. Get things started with Greasefang vs. Demons!

🏆 Congratulations to Matt Nass, winner of Pro Tour Aetherdrift!🏆

Known for his prowess with combo decks, it's no surprise that Nass was able to outmaneuver the field with Domain Overlords to secure his first ever Pro Tour victory.

Congratulations again, Matt!
