Actually, it's more complicated than just ELO. MTG Arena uses a variety of factors for matchmaking, including your win/loss record, deck strength, and even how new you are to the game. So, it's not just about ELO; it's a whole matchmaking stew!

Yep, MTG Arena does use an ELO-style system for matchmaking! It's not exactly traditional ELO, but it's a modified version that's designed to match you with players of similar skill levels. This way, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro, you get fair and challenging matches.

Nope, it's not your classic ELO. MTG Arena's system is way more complex, considering deck power and other secret sauce metrics. But yeah, ELO is part of the recipe.
