Alchemy is our new MTG Arena<\/em> play mode based on the Standard format that incorporates new-to-digital Magic<\/em> alongside rebalanced Standard cards to create a fast, ever-evolving experience for our players. (via<\/a>)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Vor einigen Tagen enth\u00fcllten die Mitarbeiter von Wizards of the Coast ein neues Format f\u00fcr ihr beliebtes Kartenspiel Magic<\/span> the Gathering, welches nur in der digitalen Umsetzung MTG Arena vorhanden sein soll. Dabei handelt es sich im Grunde um eine Erg\u00e4nzung des Standardformats (nur aktuelle Sets) mit der Bezeichnung Alchemy<\/span>. Das Alchemy-Format<\/span> soll in Zukunft wohl immer einen Monat nach dem Release eines neuen Sets erscheinen, das nur noch vier Woche online laufende Standard ersetzen und bereits am 09. Dezember erscheinen.<\/p>\n
Das Alchemy-Format<\/span> soll den Entwicklern einige Freiheiten gew\u00e4hren, die man nur in einer digitalen Umsetzung hat. Dazu geh\u00f6rt die Implementierung von rein digitalen Karten in das jeweilige Standardformat und das aktive Balancen<\/span> von problematischen Karten. Karten k\u00f6nnen im echten Leben zwar oft nicht angepasst oder generft<\/span> werden, aber solche Aktionen sind online ohne gr\u00f6\u00dferen Aufwand m\u00f6glich. Da solche Anpassungen aber eine Abweichung vom Standard darstellen, l\u00e4uft das Ganze dann unter einem neuen Namen. Zur Feier der Einf\u00fchrung von Alchemy<\/span> erhalten am 09.12. alle Spieler einige Booster und neue Karten geschenkt.<\/p>\n
Ansonsten mag ich die Idee von aktiven Balancing<\/span> in Magic<\/span> the Gathering durchaus, weil das Team bei manchen Karten nicht unbedingt die besten Entscheidungen trifft. Durch \u00c4nderungen kann man auf Banns verzichten. Was mich allerdings enorm st\u00f6rt, sind die Auswirkungen auf das historische Format des Spiels. Anpassungen im Alchemy<\/span> sollen sich wohl auch darauf auswirken, wie die historischen Versionen von Karten funktionieren. Da Historic<\/span> und Alchemy<\/span> aber zwei verschiedene Formate mit anderen Kartenpools und Decks darstellen, ist solch eine Ma\u00dfnahme irgendwie unn\u00f6tig. Dadurch macht man Historic<\/span> kaputter, um Probleme in einem anderen Forma zu beheben. In einem digitalen Spiel kann man sicherlich zwei Varianten der Karten beinhalten. Die Spieler sind nicht zu dumm zum Verstehen von verschiedenen Varianten der gleichen Karte.<\/p>\n
Ansonsten haben die Entwickler in einem Livestream erw\u00e4hnt, dass sie den Spielern nach Nerfs<\/span> an Karten keine Wilden<\/span> Karten als Ausgleich \u00fcberlassen m\u00f6chten. Diese Entscheidung halte ich pers\u00f6nlich f\u00fcr falsch und einfach nur unfreundlich gegen\u00fcber den Spielern. Dadurch verarscht man im Grunde alle Spieler, die kurz vor ver\u00f6ffentlichten Balance\u00e4nderungen<\/span> die betroffenen Karten extra hergestellt haben. In solch einer Situation sollte man den Spielern entgegenkommen. Schlie\u00dflich sind die Wild Cards von MTG Arena grunds\u00e4tzlich eine eher l\u00e4stige Mechanik.<\/p>\n
Das Team sollte also auf jeden Fall die eine oder andere \u00c4nderung an diesem Alchemy-Format<\/span> durchf\u00fchren.<\/p>\n
\nAlchemy FAQ<\/span><\/h1>\n
When will Alchemy launch?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
Alchemy will launch with our December Game Update, currently scheduled for December 9, 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n
Where can I see the new-to-digital Magic<\/em> cards?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
We will be previewing more of the new-to-digital Magic<\/em> cards in the upcoming days, and cards will be available for viewing in the Alchemy: Innistrad<\/em> Card Image Gallery<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
Where can I see the rebalanced cards?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
You can check out the December 2 Weekly MTG livestream<\/a> to preview all the upcoming planned balance changes. These cards will also be available for viewing in our Alchemy: Innistrad<\/em> Card Image Gallery<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
How do I play Alchemy?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
Like Historic, Alchemy will be a new digital-only format playable on MTG Arena<\/em>. You will be able to play Alchemy in Best-of-One and Best-of-Three matches, both ranked and unranked.<\/span><\/p>\n
Alchemy will also feature in upcoming special events, such as Midweek Magic<\/em>, Festivals, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n
How much do Alchemy boosters cost?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
Players will be able to purchase Alchemy boosters either individually for 1,000 gold or fifteen for 3,000 gems\u2014the same price as Standard set boosters.<\/span><\/p>\n
A special Alchemy bundle containing 20 Alchemy boosters will be available for 3,000 gems or 15,000 gold\u2014limit one purchase per player.<\/span><\/p>\n
How do I collect Alchemy cards?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
Players can purchase Alchemy boosters from the store or craft Alchemy cards using wildcards of the appropriate rarity to receive the new-to-digital Magic<\/em> cards. Players can collect rebalanced Alchemy cards in both Alchemy and the adjacent Standard set boosters:<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
- Alchemy boosters will contain the new-to-digital Magic<\/em> cards, rebalanced cards, and cards from the adjacent Standard set (i.e., Innistrad: Crimson Vow<\/em>).<\/span><\/li>\n
- When you receive a rebalanced card from an Alchemy booster, you will also receive the Standard version of the card.<\/span><\/li>\n
- The same is true when opening a Standard booster that contains a card that has been rebalanced for Alchemy\u2014you will receive both<\/em><\/strong> versions of the card.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
How do I tell if a card is the rebalanced Alchemy version or the Standard version?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n
Alchemy versions of rebalanced Standard cards will contain the MTG Arena<\/em> „A“ in-line with the card name. They will also have the MTG Arena<\/em> „A“ as a „foil stamp“ at the bottom of the card.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/span><\/div>\nWhat if I’ve already collected cards that have been rebalanced for play in Alchemy?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
Players who have already collected cards that will have an Alchemy version should automatically see both in their collection when Alchemy releases; you will not need to „re-collect“ these cards. This will also apply to future Alchemy balance changes.<\/span><\/p>\n
How does duplicate protection work with Alchemy boosters?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
Alchemy boosters will use a modified version of duplicate protection.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
- When opening an Alchemy booster, it will prioritize the new-to-digital Magic<\/em> cards created for the current Alchemy set.<\/span><\/li>\n
- If you’ve collected playsets of all the new Alchemy cards from the current set, you will instead receive cards of the same rarity from the adjacent Standard set (i.e., Innistrad: Crimson Vow<\/em>).<\/span><\/li>\n
- If you are „set complete“ for both Alchemy and the adjacent Standard set, normal duplicate protection rules apply.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
As a reminder, when you craft or open a booster containing a card rebalanced for Alchemy, you will receive both the Standard and the Alchemy version of the set; you will not need to collect them separately.<\/span><\/p>\n
How often should we expect balance changes or new cards for Alchemy play?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
We currently plan to release new Alchemy sets in the weeks following the adjacent Standard release. For example, players should expect the Alchemy set for Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty<\/em> to become available sometime in March.<\/span><\/p>\n
We intend to rebalance cards on a more frequent basis to keep the format fun, fast, and dynamic.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
