Plague League is a new tournament organization and community for Magic the Gathering Arena players.

We host two weekly leagues:
Monday Night Magic (Standard) with 2 start times, 5PM & 8PM Eastern
Brawl 4 All (Brawl) Wednesday at 8PM Eastern

Our Discord server has voice channels for players to use during tournaments or for their own kitchen table games and deckbuilding sessions. And our website has user profile pages where our players can make and chat with friends and earn badges for participating in Plague League events.

Plague League is a welcoming environment for MTG Arena players of all backgrounds, experience and skill levels. Timmys and Spikes are all welcome.

We also run two weekly Pokemon TCGO leagues, which are also free to play, and will be adding more TCG and tabletop games in the weeks to come.

Looking forward to you joining us.

I really like how there are so many options to play during this pandemic, I'll have to try and set time aside to play.

Thanks for posting

Yeah, I started it because I knew it was going to be a while before players could get back into a groove at their FLGS.

Initially, I really wanted to take a shot at trying to be the Star City Games of MTGA. But I think the community could use a more casual community-focused place right now. So I'm really encouraging casual, pick-up games, and hoping the Discord becomes an active hang-out for players. So besides MTGA, we're also doing Pokemon TCGO, and some Discord-hosted games.

I can't see stores being allowed to run events in their stores for a while, so running arena/mtgo events through various channels such as discord or mtg melee will probably be the only options for a while.

I wish more stores would run events over arena and mtgo

Yeah, I'm hesitant to reach out to stores, because it seems like nobody really knows when we'll be able to get back to normal so I think stores are hesitant to really put both feet into Arena.

Which I get. I mean, there's no financial gain on running Arena for a store, other than keeping a handful of players loyal while the store's dark.

Our Standard tournaments are going really well. We now run two pods (5PM eastern & 8PM eastern).

A couple of our community members have also started running leagues on our Discord server. Friday at 5PM eastern we play Historic, and Sunday at 6PM eastern we play Brawl.
