Playing Magic: the Gathering on Arena is expensive, but there are ways to play your favorite formats without spending a fortune.
One of my favorite ways to play on MTG Arena is Draft and Sealed events, better known as the Limited format. Premier Draft is the closest to any in-person events you can get, drafting and playing against other players, not bots. Despite the budget-friendly cost of Premium Drafts, playing 10 events will end up costing over $100. But there are ways to get Draft tokens at discount prices, saving hundreds of dollars.
