Twitch.tv/magic is the official live streaming website for Magic: the Gathering and Wizards of the Coast on Twitch.tv.[1]
Description
The site features video content, including the Weekly MTG show, hosted by Blake Rasmussen, which in large part has replaced Magicthegathering.com as the main source for news and announcements. This is also the channel on which all coverage airs, currently Pro Tours and the Magic Online Premier Play Program, and previously for American or European Grand Prix and the Vintage Super League; Japanese language coverage of their events are broadcast on twitch.tv/mtgjp.
Broadcast time
Weekly MTG used to be streamed on Thursdays at 5 pm Eastern Time (ET), which is 21:00 UTC when ET is observing standard time, and 20:00 UTC when ET is observing daylight saving time (DST). This coincides all year round with 21:00 UK local time (GMT/WET or BST/WEST as appropriate during the year), except during the two periods in the year of 1–3 weeks each in which North America is observing DST but Europe isn't. During those exceptional periods, it coincides with 20:00 UK local time (GMT/WET).
Change to Tuesdays
Starting on November 15 2022, the broadcast shifted to 10 am Pacific Time (PT) / 1 pm ET[2], which is 18:00 UTC when ET is observing standard time, and 19:00 UTC when ET is observing daylight saving time (DST). The is 18:00 Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
