Happy Friday MTG peeps,
Online gamers should be rather happy - Wizards of the Coast has been hard at work developing a new User Interface update for Magic: The Gathering Online. They have opened this to a nine-day public beta test which is expected to last until 25th July. Most players will agree the old interface was terribad and from what we see in the new 'n' shiny version, it looks good. More information about the new Interface is available here.
• Streamlined download: 5 minutes vs. 2 hours
• Improved drafting and limited deck building scenes
