These sleeves did not have a name attached to them. They are from the Secret Lair: Heads I Win, Tails You Lose. These are available as part of the first ever Secret Lair Commander Deck. The two sleeves are part of a new reversible card, where each side of the card is a different piece of art with different flavor text, yet it's the same card. Art is from both sides of the Propaganda card, with both sides being illustrated by Scott Balmer. Propaganda has been reprinted many times over the years and first appearend in the Tempest set.

Cathartic Reunion
Cathartic Reunion
|
This sleeve was a reward during the 2021 Thanksgiving holiday for a standard singleton event called The Gathering. The event was free, and you were able to use any standard card, even if you didn't have it. I see this as more data mining on WotC's part for meta info. Regardless, it's a free sleeve! The first win got you this sleeve. The second win got you an avatar of Halana and Alena.
Cathartic Reunion was first depicted on a card of the same name in Kaladesh, in which Chandra is giving her mother, Pia Nalaar, a hug. Illustrated by Howard Lyon. |

Extra Life 2021
|
This sleeve was available during the Extra Life 2021 event, which is a charity event that benefits the Seattle Children's Hospital. The sleeve was available for a limited time from November 5-8.
The cost of the sleeve was 800 gems or 4,000 gold, with net proceeds being donated to the charity. The asset name in the game data for this sleeve was "extra life 2021 ajani". I do find it funny/sad that they mention "net proceeds" ... on a virtual item. Really WotC/Hasbro? |

These sleeves were available for 300 gems / 1,500 gold (50% off).

Tentacle
Tentacle
|
This sleeve was found in the asset files after the Sept 16, 2021 update. There is never any indication to what they will be used for. Most are for event related rewards. This one happened to just be included in the daily deal for this day, which was all sea themed card styles.
It was available for 360 gems / 1800 gold (40% off) Illustrator: Dan Scott Dan Scott also illustrated the Nadir Kraken from Theros: Beyond Death. The Nadir Kraken created a Tentacle token, and is based on the same art style that he used for that card. |

World Championship XXVII
World Championship XXVII
Worlds Trophy
|
Worlds Trophy sleeve was given out again this year in one of two ways.
If you participated in the Worlds Showcase XXVII event in Arena, your 3rd win would reward you with the Worlds Trophy sleeve. Also, if you participated in the Find Your Champion event, and picked the winning player of the event, you would receive the Worlds Trophy sleeve, pet and 6 rare ICRs. The World Championship XXVII sleeve was given out to those who picked 2nd-16th place winners in the Find Your Champion event. Being that the Worlds Trophy sleeve was obtained previously by may people, and it was available by winning 3 somewhat easy matches in a free event, I see the World Champ sleeve being the more rare of the two since you won't get it if you happen to have picked the winner of the event. |

Jack-o'-Lantern
|
Jack-o'-Lantern, or as the file name in the assets called it, Cerberus Pumpkin. Mousing over the bundle's "?" was the only place it gave the name of the sleeve Jack-o'-Lantern.
This sleeve was available from Oct 1, 2021 for a limited time. It was bundled with a Pet, Pumpkin Cerberus, for 3000 gems / 15,000 gold, or you could purchase the sleeve on it's own for 600 gems / 3,000 gold. |

Why is Arena Hiding the Daily Deal Sleeve?
As of the Sept 16 update, all sleeves or other non-card style items, are being put at the end of the daily deal list. They no longer show up on the main store page in the daily deal section as the showcase item.
The most obvious guess for this change is so it requires players to click the daily deal itself and scroll through all of the items to see if there is anything besides card styles available.
While this is nothing majorly game changing, it does add a slight inconvenience now. Players will need to be aware of this so they can make sure to click on the daily deal each day and scroll through all the items so they don't miss out on sleeves, avatars, etc.

Renewal 2021 Sleeve
Renewal 2021 Sleeve
|
This sleeve was part of the Renewal package that was rewarded for returning players prior to rotation. Once rotation happened, and the new Midnight Hunt Mastery was released, this sleeve was slotted in as the final returning player reward at level 31 on the Mastery.
It's file name was 'Bundle Insert", but on the Mastery itself, it's called Renewal 2021 Sleeve. I am not yet sure what this art is from. It appears to be a custom piece for this purpose only and not from any card. |

Sphere of the Suns - Streamer?
|
I have no idea what this Sleeve is from. It was sent to me by someone who pulled a bunch of image assets out of the game for sleeve art. The file name included the wording "basic streamer". I'm guessing this was given to streamers, but I have never seen it used on any streams I watch.
The card art is from Sphere of the Suns, originally printed in Mirrordin Besieged, and reprinted again in Modern Masters 2015. If anyone has any info on this, I would greatly appreciate it. For all I know, it could just be a neglected asset in the game files that was never used. |

Happy Thanksgiving! ... what a weird sleeve.
There was no title for this sleeve, but the asset file in the game was titled "FoodFamily". As of 6/3/21, an article from WotC reveals the tokens of Modern Horizons 2, which includes a new Food token that uses this for it's art. As of 5/26/21, an article from WotC shows this as being titled "Food Token" by Aaron Miller. It was originally available as a Daily Deal for 300 gems / 1,500 gold.

Black Lotus
|
The Black Lotus bundle was released on October 22, 2020 in the Arena store and included a Black Lotus pet and a Black Lotus exquisite sleeve.
The cost was 3,500 gems / 17,500 gold for the bundle. Individually, the Black Lotus pet cost 3,000 gems / 20,000 gold and the sleeve cost 1,200 gems. The bundle was an arbitrarily good deal if you wanted these two items at roughly 17% off the gem price. The gold price made the bundle an even better value since the sleeve was not obtainable with gold. This was an obvious gold sink. |

Cats vs. Dogs
These sleeves were obtained from a special WotC promotion via local game stores leading up to the release of JumpStart.
Availability was from June 26 - July 16, 2020. These were obtained by any MTG purchase or by playing MTG at your LGS or online (if the LGS supported it). You were able to choose either the cat or dog sleeve available that week. Each choice of a cat or dog were tallied up from each week to declare which was more superior. Results were revealed at the release of JumpStart. More information on this promotion can be found HERE.
Regarding the "Cat Token", it's original "printing" is from Apocalypse. It was released only on Magic Online for the card Penumbra Bobcat. This token never had a physical printed card. Even though Penumbra Bobcat had been reprinted for JumpStart, a physical token still does not exist due to JumpStart not having any tokens in it's booster packs.

Stores that are part of the WPN were given codes to give out to players when they posted game play screenshots via their LGS's social media outlets.

TwitchCon 2019 Promo
|
For those who attended TwitchCon on Sept 27, 2019, they received 4 codes in their swag bag for this special Arena sleeve. These sleeves are extremely rare and hard to get. Many participants sold their extra codes on the secondary market for a premium because of their exclusivity.
The codes are set to expire 1/1/23, so make sure to use or give them away before then. Thank you so much to Miki for sending me a code for this sleeve and all of the other help you have given over the past year(s)! |

Guild Sleeves
With the March 2019 update came these Guild symbol sleeves. These were available during the Guilds of Ravnica and Ravnica Allegiance sets in the Arena store.

4/18/21 Update: Regarding the "plain" sleeves, after finding them in the game asset files, each of these sleeves are actually called "metallic" sleeves.

Valentine's Day

This was a colorful card back that was found in the game's asset files.
There was a mention of it in Twitter from the designers HERE. Not much is known about it. I assume it was a card back that showed up on the day of, and for that day only, much like other one-time-only card backs on certain holidays. Artwork by Brandon and Maxx Marshall |
Early 2019
Embossed Mana Symbols
These were one of the early sleeve bundles available on Arena, which players could purchase in the Arena store until May 23, 2019. They were available for 10,000 gold for all 5, making them one of the most expensive and rare sleeves available due to it being harder to farm gold at the time. Now we really don't think too much of 2,000 gold per sleeve.

Miscellaneous Sleeves
Country Flags
WotC Gives out flag sleeves to live streamers as well as codes for them to give the same sleeves away during their live streams. You don't see these very often except typically during large streamed competitions.
5/16/20 Update: These flags were later released on the Arena Daily Deals for 1,500 gold / 300 gems each. This brought the average price of sleeve down from $5.63 to $4.30.

Arena Metallic (Unused Asset)
|
This doesn't appear to be used in the game anywhere. It's name is "Metallic Arena".
My guess is this is done in the same way that the "Basic / Metallic" guild symbol sleeves are. There is a lighting/glow effect that shows through the dark areas on the card, such as the logo, and gives the card a somewhat shimmer and the logo glows. It's not an exquisite though. I don't know when this was introduced into the game, but my guess is it was one of the first early sleeves. If I find out otherwise, I'll update this. Please let me know if you have any info on this. |

Cookie: 2018 Holiday Pauper Event
|
The Cookie "sleeve" is actually just an alternate card back used during the Holiday Pauper Event from December 2018.
This is the event update posted from WotC from December 2018: Holiday Pauper "Happy Holidays from the MTG Arena team! Bring your deck of only commons and enjoy the winter scenery as you play!" The image was found in the game's assets, and is simply titled "cookie". |

Closed Beta Test Card Backs

This default looking card back was similar to one used during the Arena Closed Beta period. The MTG logo was in yellow, and they had removed the Deckmaster wording from the bottom of the card.
