If your goal in MTG Arena is to get specific cards in order to build constructed decks, then ranked drafting may not be the right format for you unless you can consistently get to five wins (7.6 packs).

There are no wildcards in the packs and they don’t count towards the number of packs you need to open in order to get free wildcards. So purely in terms of pack value, if you can win at least twice every time you draft, you’re doing better than you would if you bought five packs from the store, with one caveat: The three packs you draft don’t build up wildcards. Thinking of it in terms of packs, here’s the value breakdown by result: If you can average four wins each time, you’ll get three 15-card packs, one 8-card pack (with a 30% chance for a bonus pack), and 450 gems (2.25 packs). At best, if you pick up seven wins, you’ll get three 15-card packs, two 8-card packs, and 950 gems (4.75 packs). So what’s the value of a 5,000 gold ranked draft? At a minimum you will get three 15-card packs, one 8-card pack, and 50 gems (1/4 of a pack). And for 5,000 gold you can do a ranked draft.Īside: That’s literally all you can do with gold in this game. For 4,000 gold you can get yourself some sweet Liliana artwork sleeves. For 3,000 gold apiece you can pick up the Huatli and Angrath avatars. You could buy packs for 1,000 gold a pop. What do you do with it? You can join a constructed event (500 gold for Best-of-One or 1,000 gold for Best-of-Three, a.k.a. So you’ve been grinding for a few days, finished a bunch of quests, and now you’ve got 5,000 gold in your pocket. Also, I’m a spike, so for me there’s no option other than ranked drafting. As soon as I get to 5,000 coins I pretty much pull the trigger on a ranked draft. So for me, it isn’t really a question of value. It is by far my favorite way to play Magic the Gathering and nothing else comes close except for Momir Basic which is a distant second. So today I want to talk a bit about the ranked drafts and whether or not you should spend time on them.īefore I get in to deep I’ll say this: I love to draft. It got me wondering if the ranked draft is really worth the investment (5,000 gold or 750 gems). Yesterday I decided to pick up my wins by jumping into a War of the Spark Ranked Draft event. Another day another three wins and another 200 experience points on our seemingly never-ending quest to discover the true value (and cost) of the Core Set 2020 Mastery Pass on MTG Arena.
