The fantastical trading card game Magic: The Gathering has gifted fans recently by reviving past Core Sets in the multiverse. The latest release will be available next year with Core Set 2021 and this pack promises to provide players with new and exciting objectives.
The varied deck of Core Set 2021 aims to satisfy the broad MTG community by including something for every type of player. Standard duelists can look forward to reprints of Instant cards like ‘Shock’ and ‘Grasp of Darkness’, while the addition of some new cards such as cover star ‘Teferi, Master of Time’ will inject fresh energy into the lore.
The inclusion of the renowned enchantment card ‘Sanctum of All’ is one of the highlights of the upcoming 2021 set. It will make its return along with other new Shrines; cards that players usually have in their deck for sentimental purposes rather than for combat. Another card that is peaking the interest of duelists is ‘Rin and Seri, Inseparable’ that allows players to duel with an entire deck full of cats and dogs. It’s an interesting addition to MTG that will certainly gain the attention of animal lovers.
The reprints of Core Sets aids the secondhand market by allowing past versions of the card to appear within the collectors domain for decent prices. It’s also great for fans who get to see their favorite cards released in the modern design, eliminating the need to go hunting through their parents attic to be able to play with a rarity. Core Set 2021 will include some treasured cards in its pack including classics like ‘Massacre Wurm’ and ‘Azusa, Lost but Seeking’ with a special inclusion of the beloved “Sad Robot”, ‘Solemn Simulacrum’.
Magic the Gathering is a collectible card game, both physical and digital, created by game designer Richard Garfield. The popular game publisher Wizards of the Coast took Garfield’s creation under its wing in 1993 that went on to become the first trading card game that held over 20 million players in its fan base. The overall story behind the game features wizards, known as Planeswalkers, that summon creatures and use spells to defeat their foes. Inspired by the classic RPG Dungeons and Dragons, MTG has branched into various different mediums over the years, including novels and video games, as well as producing a plethora of various trading card expansion packs.
The anxious wait for Core Set 2021 is finally underway for a deck that houses a strong mix of casual and competitive cards to balance the field. This set will also introduce new and challenging RPG scenarios for collectors to become acquainted with.
