We’ve seen some big crossovers already this calendar year, but Avatar: The Last Airbender has to be one of the most hotly anticipated Universes Beyond sets to hit Magic. The beloved cartoon series has retained its relevance for a generation now, and there’s fans of all ages who can’t wait to enjoy seeing its fantastic world and characters portrayed through …
Welcome readers, to the official Card Kingdom guide to Marvel’s Spider-Man Draft! Also known as Through the Omenpaths, Part 1 Draft for anyone on MTG Arena! This is a unique and weird set design with equally unique and weird changes to its default draft rules. If you want a rundown of the Pick-Two format and how it might affect your …
It might be weird to say I feel sympathy for a Magic set. But Edge of Eternities really got a raw deal: not only was its debut slotted between huge Universes Beyond sets like Final Fantasy and Marvel’s Spider-Man, but it also had the challenge of launching the game’s first “space fantasy” setting. Could this one release manage to make …
Final Fantasy has finally debuted in Magic, undoubtedly the event of the year for this game and one of the biggest products ever in terms of hype! While draft may not be the first thing most people are looking forward to with this release, I’ve come to expect the Limited design team at WotC will deliver every set. Fortunately, I …
Much of the excitement (from myself and other writers) for Tarkir: Dragonstorm has revolved around its seeded Sealed experience. It’s a great idea to give players a chance to pilot their clan of choice and really enjoy that aspect of the plane and the Limited environment. But the original Khans block was also a legendarily good Draft format – one …
As the name implies, Foundations aims to redefine and reaffirm the “default” gameplay and ideas of Magic. This modern take on a Core Set definitely seems like a Constructed-first product – understandable, given Standard players will be living in its shadow until 2029! But that also implies that Foundations sealed product will have a long run in stores, and that …
Duskmourn: House of Horror represents a departure from previous Magic design in many ways, setting new expectations for lore, aesthetics, mechanics, and color pie divisions. So of course, the Limited environment you’ll find within the shifting walls of this insidious House is just as strange and daunting as everything else about it! It would be all too easy to stumble …
Bloomburrow was one of the most hotly-anticipated sets I can remember from the very first announcement, and the product itself hasn’t disappointed. The fuzzy critters who inhabit the land known as Valley are cute – but not always so cuddly! This set has fierce field mice and resolute rabbits dicing it up with spooky squirrels and rowdy raccoons, and that’s …
The Modern Horizons sets are some of the most unique Magic products ever released, concentrating years worth of archetype support and intricate new rules into a single expansion! Modern Horizons 3 keeps that high standard going, with a Draft format that can support a range of nuanced playstyles! Last week, I discussed how Modern Horizons approach to card and set …
Alright listen up, you low-down, snake-bit, cattle-rustlin’, rock-kickin’, whiskey-spillin’… …it’s time for the long-awaited cowboy draft set! Outlaws of Thunder Junction is here and we’re about to find out who’s got the fastest first-pick in the West! Wizards have wisely decided to follow up Murders at Karlov Manor with a more “normal” draft set, but that doesn’t mean it lacks …
