Tarkir Dragonstorm Art

There was a lot to enjoy about each of the MTG sets released throughout 2024. Each set contained a fair few exciting cards that helped to mix up and revitalize multiple formats.

Broken MTG Spells Could Work with a Controversial Fix

Commander is by far MTG’s most popular format, and it has a very unique set of rules compared to traditional Constructed formats.

MTG Designer Teases Bizarre Match-Three-Themed Puzzle Plane

Vertex Paladin | March of the Machine

Wizards of the Coast has been pushing the boundaries of MTG a lot recently. In 2025 alone, we’re having a racing-themed set in Aetherdrift and a space-themed one in Edge of Eternities.

MTG Designer Reveals Silver-Bordered Cards May Return

Beeble Token | Unsanctioned

First appearing in 1998, silver-bordered MTG cards had a good long run in MTG. Largely reserved for unplayable Un-Set cards a silver border quickly denoted two very important points.

MTG Head Designer Seemingly Reveals Missing Aetherdrift Plane

The Mimeoplasm | Double Masters 2022

In an attempt not to overwhelm MTG players with too much information, we don’t actually know too much about 2025. While six of the seven sets on the MTG 2025 release calendar have been named and announced, information is rather sparse. Not only is Innistrad Remastered still yet to be spoiled, but important details are […]
