In order to use the "PlayWarSpark" code, you will need to download and install the latest update (APR 25 - 0.14.00.00). You will not receive your packs if you do not have the War of the Spark game update!
If you attempted to redeem the code prior to updating to 0.14.00.00, you will need to contact customer support to receive your packs.
8-card boosters from the store are not guaranteed to have a planeswalker - they're just distributed by rarity in those. The boosters used in draft and sealed each have a planeswalker, similar to printed boosters.
The stakes have never been higher as you battle your opponents on top of Bolas’s Citadel during the epic finale of the War of the Spark.
War of the Spark features dozens of planeswalkers, effectively doubling the number of planeswalkers available in Magic the Gathering: Arena. Unlike our previous planeswalkers these each have a non-loyalty ability in addition to their loyalty abilities. Make sure you examine your opponent’s planeswalkers to see how they can interact with the game outside of using their loyalty.
As a couple others have said, if you turn on full control it will always ask you. In general, if you feel like Arena isn’t following the rules to the letter, turn on full control and it will.
Play in a War of the Spark prerelease at a local Wizards Play Network store and receive a code inside your prerelease pack that redeems for a Traditional Draft event entry on MTG Arena!
Since you're here, I'm gonna bug you about something else: if blockers are in a stack, you can't distinguish what order they are assigned damage. This matters in a not entirely hypothetical situation where I'm blocking a 3/3 with 2 merfolk tricksters - if I buff the wrong one, it dies, and I can't tell which is which.
I've been told this has been fixed for the WAR update - the game will now unstack blockers. Did you see it happen in the streaming event yesterday? #wotc_staff
