I'm a new player and have been playing since last week. Gave it a shot as a saw it on the steam store. Before I played some shadowverse (about 40 hours).

Since I installed MTG Arena I already have 13 hours in total played. I like it so far (except when I get comboed out of existence ...)

Finished the colour challange and now I'm about to finish the starter deck challange. After that I'll give "Jump In" and later down the line Quick Draft a try to grow my collection.

Also build my first red and white deck without any guides and managed to get a win on my first try.

All in all I really like MTG Arena so far :)

Depends on what you want. Jump-In offers a lot of value with 2 rares per 1000 gold and its always an even match since your opponent is always playing jump in. If you want to build a specific deck, playing constructed and buying packs will get you wildcard/gold pack prizes for the rares you'll need. Drafting is the most gold eviction ~if~ you're good, but you should make sure you have the fundamentals down and look at a drafting guide for the current set.
