Alara was designed as a multi-color matters block that was especially focused on the three-color shards. Alara Block is even where we get the shorthand names for each of the three color shards: Bant (Green-White-Blue), Grixis (Blue-Black-Red), Esper (White-Blue-Black), Jund (Black-Green-Red), and Naya (White-Red-Green).

The Commander precons for Duskmourn: House of Horror were always going to be an exciting prospect just for the powerful new cards and scary movie flavor. But Wizards had an extra–sneaky jump scare in store for us with these decks: a revival of the 1v3 Archenemy format! Archenemy is one of the more exciting ideas Wizards has put together for …
Right now in the Magic story we’re in the midst of what Wizards calls “The Dragon Storm Arc.” While we don’t know all the details of what this story entails, we do know that the arc will culminate with a return to Tarkir – a plane with more dragons than any other. We saw our first hint of this in …
