Magic the Gathering Summer

With COVID restrictions, Magic organized play is in something of a holding pattern, but Rogues Gallery and Wizard of the Coast want to make sure our Magic fans have plenty to celebrate this summer.

There’s the Love Your Local Game Store promo, which starts in mid-June. While supplies last, any Magic purchase will get a Reliquary Tower card, and anyone buying a box of Magic (any set!) will get a Mechagodzilla/Hangarback Walker card.

We also have a limited reprint of Mystery Boosters coming here in the next couple weeks! We expect these to go fast, but we are taking preorders, a maximum of one box per person, so if you want one, put in your orders now! There are rumors of a reprint of the Ikoria Commander decks as well, but we haven’t heard details yet.

Magic 2021 will be hitting in July, with an in-home prerelease just like Ikoria, as well the brand new Jumpstart.

Jumpstart is a new way to play Magic that mashes together themes from throughout the history of the game and lets you skip the deckbuilding part. Basically, you buy two boosters, each fitting a theme, shuffle them together, and you’re ready to go. A lot more details are available at https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/introducing-jumpstart-new-way-play-magic-2020-02-20

Double Masters will release on August 7th, which has double box toppers, plus two foils and two rares or mythic rares in each booster! We’ll have pricing and availability as we get closer to the release date.
