Wizards announced new efforts to promote Standard play that start next year. Some highlights:

  • Special promos for new weekly Standard events at LGSs
  • $75k Standard Open at MagicCon Chicago, which is "the first large, open field Standard tournament in quite some time"
  • Pro Tour Outlaws of Thunder Junction (second PT in 2024) will be Standard

@calvinball it surely saved me oodles over time - I wasn’t tempted again successfully till the Lord of the Rings cards - the artists really did amazing jobs and I wanted to at least get this set while it’s around. :)
