==Description== Digital-only cards in digital-only formats like [[Historic (format)|Historic]] give [[Wizards of the Coast]] the ability to functionally rebalance cards simply and clearly. They can simply update the text digitally, and the cards will remain accurate to their new function.<ref name="BR2021013"/> Functional rebalancing is a significant change in how formats are balanced. Going forward, WotC will be managing formats on MTG Arena in two different ways. "Print" formats, like [[Standard]], will continue to work exactly like they do in [[tabletop]] ''Magic''. For "Live" formats, like Historic, balancing is added alongside [[banning]] and [[suspension]] as a tool to address problems and make improvements to the format.<ref name="BR2021013"/> December 2021 introduced [[Alchemy]], a digital variation of Standard that started balance patching of powerful cards.<ref>{{DailyRef|magic-digital/mtg-arena-state-game-alchemy-2021-12-02|MTG Arena: State - Alchemy|[[Wizards of the Coast]]|December 2, 2021}}</ref>
