There's often a lot of talk as to how Marvel isn't really "Magic Adjacent", which I totally get as it doesn't fit what magic started out as (with one exception I think below). As time has gone on, a lot of themes have been added to even the Magic Lore that is somewhat reminiscent of modern day technology, or even futuristic technology.

So to you, what sort of franchises do you think, that don't already exist, would fix almost perfectly into Magic? It is interesting that most would agree Marvel shouldn't count, but I guess it technically does because the powers some characters have could be classed as "magical". Like, Chandra is all about flames and being able to conjure fire, and there's Marvel characters that do too. The only difference is it's modern day earth.

Hey guys, I have never bought one of these mtg packs before and was wondering on the off chance anyone has bought something similar (as its a pre order). of the 15 lands are all of them basic? or is any of the special lands going to be out of the 15. Id assume so but i've never bought this set before.

The writing is a bit wonky, but it adds character.

So I have a question on her second ability. When I exiled the top card for her second ability, it states I can play that card this turn. Do I have to pay the CMC of said exiled card or is it for free? I have to ask before I start cheating in anyway with this card.

I’m a VERY casual player and have been playing for years but have just heard that I should cast spells in my 2nd main phase more often than my first. Why is this?

I was told, but failed understand, that the spells can be applied after combat.

Meaning 1, I declare attackers and one creature is swinging for 5 damage. My opponent does not choose to block, so in my 2nd main phase I play an instant to give that creature double strike making my opponent take 10 damage.

Meaning 2, I could swing for 5 in combat (opponent may take the hit to go to 3 health) and do lightning bolt for 3 in my 2nd main phase.

I see the validity of number 2 but can’t understand how number 1 could happen. Can anyone help me understand?

EDIT: There are so many unbelievably helpful comments that are going to fundamentally change the way I play the game. I can’t possibly respond to all of them in a timely manner, so thank you all very much!

I'm probably going to GenCon and was thinking of taking some cards to get signed. This got me thinking of where on the card would I want the signature. I see so many pictures online of the signature obscuring the game text.

I was maybe thinking above the card type line and into the art a small bit so that most of the art is still visible and all of the game text is visible. I don't know.

With the new Miku commander deck coming out soon, in order to get my hands on one will i have to camp the site or anything like that? Or will they be fairly easy to access?

Good evening. I’d like to build a Commander deck—around Bracket 3—using her as the commander. I was wondering if you have any advice or suggestions on which cards are absolutely essential for a deck with this commander. Thanks a lot.

sorry maybe it has been discussed before but i just came to realize this and it seems wild. whats your thoughts and how could that be countered

So imagine I have [[Noctis, Heir Apparent]] in exile after having activated his Warp Strike ability.

I also have [[The Mighty Thor, Jane Foster]] on the battlefield and two [[Hare Apparent]] and two equipment.

I want Jane to blink the Hare Apparent and have Noctis see the creature return to the battlefield and have him see the token enter as well.

But I’m so confused as to when Noctis truly returns to the battlefield. Like, does Jane’s trigger happen when Noctis is not present?

What I’m really asking as well is it says “at the beginning of your declare attackers step” but is that before I declare? Then I declare? Or is it the beginning of the step when they’ve been declared he shows up?

What things that happen during combat that make creatures enter at instant speed are there other than flash? Does Noctis witness Myriad or Mobilize?

when i play casual games everyones striving to win as if their life depends on it and have all the insane cards in their decks and even proxies to copy those cards to make really hard to beat decks when its just a game for shits and giggles cant we just buy bulk and like make silly decks with those cards as if we were a bunch of 10 year old children trying to impress our older cousin?

i recently bought a box full of cards (it has like 1000 something cards) from someones bulk and i grabbed a couple of human creatures and spells that work within those creatures and other creatures i could go up against with this deck and only basic lands cuz thats what was on the bulk and made a fun little deck to play and ive noticed that when i use those against begginners and share with them the other decks ive made this way they usually have TONS of fun and even some more experienced players sometimes.

i feel like casual games are not actually casual but more of a "ill be an asshole but a friendly asshole". i might just have a skill issue tho and i do know i suck terribly at this game but i sincerely feel liike this kinda thing would really be cooler sometimes.

One of the positive things to come from the recent UB sets is the Source Material frames! Clean and simple, so I figured I'd touch up my old set with the new frames and some new ideas! A characters first appearance on a cover will have their full name. After that, I'll use their last name and some sort of sick title (ex: Fushiguro, Potential Man). If you have any ideas for cards, feel free to let me know! Credit to u/godscend for their awesome clean up work on a majority of the covers!

Are they all going for 800+ dollars now or is there any places that are offering msrp or reasonable upcharge to a box? I cant find one anywhere for less than that amount.

I am extremely excited for the new Smaug cards and just The Hobbit set in general. I have done what I believe a slightly better than mediocre job assembling this list but I'm worried it either doesn't have enough ways to refill my hand or enough protection... Or both. Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything obvious and then maybe some thoughts on making it more consistent/protected, thanks! I always appreciate everyone's suggestions!

Side note: I really love the idea of the deck being basically just Smaug and infinite treasure.

Im having a hard time figuring out my next build. I tend to play rakdos colors and am looking to branch out. I want a commander that has a high skill ceiling, meaning the deck or playstyle relies on a deep knowledge of mechanics as well as the ins and outs of ones own decklist. Please give me your recommendations. Thank you!

I’ve been looking through the recent card previews for The Hobbit set, and unless I missed something I haven't seen a single Orc card yet. I’m also not really familiar with The Hobbit but I sort of figured they had Orcs in there??

Am I wrong?

So I bought a card on eBay recently that was listed as NM, I've done this many times and am satisfied with the condition 99% of the time, but this one I need a second opinion on.

Note the large scratch near the sword.

Should I contact the seller for a partial refund or just let it be?

How does the discard work on this when it's already in the battlefield??

Has anyone seen a non foil version of this emet-selch card?

So couldnt find my traps, so had ti cal in an arcane teachings. So have Hulk equiped and move to combat, as hulk is attacking trigger the enchant targeting hulk. Granted that hulk either has vigilance or able to burn, untap etc. Then this procsess can be repeated iver qnd over until the big man is infinite swing for leathal fist combat and nkt have to wait for all the rest? Happen to pull this in a pod of six using a twiddle to untap hulk and went to town.
