Wizards of the Coast (WotC) has released their weekly MTG Arena update that includes details on the release of Alchemy: New Capenna, special events, and more.

Alchemy: New Capenna Launches Tomorrow

The next addition to Alchemy and Historic will be released on MTG Arena tomorrow. Alchemy: New Capenna will feature 30 cards with a different distribution of rarities than previous Alchemy sets. This expansion has fewer rares and more uncommons. To help onboard more players, the June 2 client update will bring two events to introduce the cards.

View all the cards from Alchemy: New Capenna here.

Premier Draft Alchemy: New Capenna

For the first time, Alchemy cards will appear in draft with the Premier Draft Alchemy: New Capenna event on June 2-6. The event will function just like a Premier Draft of Streets of New Capenna but each pack will have one card from the Alchemy expansion. The Alchemy card can be any rarity and will replace a common from the pack. Prizes for the drafts will be the same as normal Premier Drafts, but the pack awards will be Alchemy: New Capenna packs.

Into the Future

Into the Future is a returning event where players battle with preconstructed decks featuring new Alchemy cards for free. Players earn Alchemy: New Capenna packs and 1,000 Mastery Pass XP. The event will run from June 2-4.
