Prophecy often makes the shortlist of “Worst Magic sets ever,” and I’m not here to tell you that that title is entirely undeserved. When it comes to 60-card formats, the set hasn’t done a whole lot.

2024 is almost here, and I’m here to manifest what I’d like to see for the format going forward. This wishlist is in some ways personal, but it also stems from my observations of the format and what dials could do with tweaking.
