This will at least make me want to play Arena to get my competitive itch, but it is a shame that it's only Standard. Only one format does not make things all that interesting.
That will change, over time. They are, for sure, going to introduce a post-modern format and it will be playable on Arena.
Yeah it's only a matter of time until other formats become more available for Magic Arena, EDH / Commander on the other hand I don't see being played on Magic Arena due to a conflict of interest between the EDH Rules Committee and Wizards of the Coast / Hasbro. It's possible that the format could still be played on Magic Arena where Wizards of the Coast / Hasbro is forced to follow the rules that the EDH Rules Committee have already set for the format.
Magic Arena doesn't monetize players as much as MTGO did where you still had to pay for cards and booster packs similar to bitcoin and crytocurrency. However that still doesn't mean that Magic Arena should be the go to choice over Paper Magic where the face-to-face social interactions are more rewarding than playing against someone online or an AI.
