What format do people play in Arena? (self.mtg)

I'm primarily a paper edh player, but I've been dabbling in arena lately. There's so many different formats, it's hard to know where to start and I don't want to waste my wild cards on a standard deck only to realize I like historic or brawl more.

So my question is what formats do you all play in MTGA and why?

Fair point. While I mostly play Brawl, I do have a mono-Red Standard deck, a Rakdos sacrifice Explorer deck, and a Golgari Elves Historic deck; I wouldn't play them if i didn't have fun doing it, even if it is competitive. I guess I mean just for fun as opposed to playing for rewards too.

I know BO3 is more balanced and all, but I'll admit I do prefer quicker matches with BO1.
