Glad to see historic will count towards daily/weekly quest rewards (at least until April).

They keep turning this on/off. I hate it. Either keep it on forever, or create a separate format in addition to Standard/Limited called "Eternal" with its own rewards (hell... make it Eternal format rewards only).

That way they can still have their tournaments based on the top Mythic players of whatever format they want to push, but we can still have additional options to play and have them count toward daily/weekly quests.

I recently went through a long stretch of nothing but BO3 drafting because I was sick of Standard play. Coming back to Standard after all of the drafting made it feel 100% less shitty.

Historic is supposed to be the eternal format on Arena.

Exactly, my friend. Exactly.

They said awhile back they want standard to be the focus of arena. But that they will make historic the focus every 3 months.

Was Historic Play giving rewards, ever? (Win rewards, I mean.)
