Throne of Eldraine is the Magich:the Gathering set that head designer Mark Rosewater has been waiting over ten years to do. “One of the challenges of making an ongoing game is always finding new avenues to explore,” he says. “Part of this is creating a balance of different sensibilities.”
Taking place on a brand new plane of Magic’s multiverse, Eldraine, the set draws heavily from high fantasy and European folklore, such as traditional fairytales and the legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.
