For those who weren’t playing during Kaladesh, the Energy mechanic probably doesn’t look like anything too special. A secondary resource you can build up between turns and spend on various effects?

MTG Standard Rotation Is Happening Sooner Than Expected!

Back in 2023, Wizards of the Coast announced that Standard wouldn’t be rotating that year.
