This is a long one, so grab your popcorn and your trade binders. Let’s get into it!
So you think you know how Magic works, huh? WRONG! It’s almost impossible to fully know the game! Magic has hundreds of pages of rules, and some of them make no sense at all. This episode, we’re going through Magic’s weirdest, most unintuitive, least understood rules and telling you exactly how they work and exactly what boggles our minds about them. Ready to learn something? Let’s get into it!
Ready to step into a fresh new world of power? Reality Fracture has you covered with a multiverse’s worth of sweet new tools for your 99. This episode, we’ll lay out all the cards you don't want to miss from MTG’s latest in-universe set, and trust us, there’s some real staple potential going on with some of these picks. Jace’s Echoverse might not have lasted long, but these cards are here to stay, so let’s get started!
Bad news: Jace has broken the multiverse.
Behold Jace’s perfect world in the form of the four-color ”Multiverse Reforged” Reality Fracture precon! He may have “improved” the multiverse, but now it’s up to us to improve his deck with our $50 upgrade guide. We’ll lay out 10 cards to bring into existence, and 10 to banish into nothingness to make this deck a true masterpiece. Soon you’ll be reforging the reality of your next game night into one where you are VICTORIOUS! Let’s get started.
