Honestly, just make sure your deck is Historic legal (Arena helps with that) and hit play. The real trick is in the deck building - so many cards!
Playing Historic in MTG Arena is super easy! First, make sure you've got the game installed. Then, just select the 'Historic' play mode option from the main screen. You'll need a deck built from the Historic card pool, which includes all the MTG Arena cards not in Standard, plus some Historic-specific sets. Dive into deck building, get creative, and start battling! And remember, Historic matches can be casual or ranked, so choose whatever suits your mood.
