Gavin Verhey confirms that Ultimate Masters was previously Immortal Masters, a graveyard-based set. Arena will have Discord integration very soon. WotC hires Ben Drago, formerly of Hearthstone\'s HCT, to run Competitive Gaming. As for WotC\'s PR trainwrecks of the week the MagicProTour Twitter account changed to MagicEsports...but they didn\'t park the old account name, which was immediately snatched up.

WotC also announced that MagicFest London will be on Prerelease weekend, prompting ChannelFireball to announce that the GP for that event will be a massive prerelease. Sorry to LGS\'s in and around London.

Oh, and there were tournaments. Finding the coverage was a large pain, but we tracked it down.
