What Are Welcome Decks?

Welcome Decks offer simple, flavorful, and a perfectly logical start to your Magic journey. You'll learn the fundamentals of Magic—attacking, blocking, casting spells—through the lens of Star Trek. These decks will teach you more than just the rules of the game. They also showcase the "color pie" of Magic. Each of Magic's five colors has a philosophy that's associated with it.

0193_MTGTRK_WelcNew: Picard, Steadfast Captain 0140_MTGTRK_BegBxNew: Will Riker, Assuming Command

For example, the color white in Magic is tied to community and cooperation. Captain Picard fits those qualities perfectly! His card in the white Welcome Deck, Picard, Steadfast Captain, leads by example and makes your other creatures stronger. Very good, mon capitaine!

0198_MTGTRK_WelcNew: Kirk, Enterprising Captain 0165_MTGTRK_BegBxNew: Kruge, Genesis Seeker

The color red in Magic, meanwhile, is more aggressive. Red cards often depict anger, passion, and raw ferocity. Star Trek fans will instantly recognize those as qualities of the Klingon, and the red Welcome Deck is full of powerful Klingon creatures that are suited for rushing down your opponents. Kirk, Enterprising Captain shows the zeal of red in Magic, as he is steadfastly devoted to his goals and mission—sometimes to a fault.

Playing with these Welcome Decks will teach you everything you need to know about Magic, and if you know Star Trek, you'll get even more out of the experience! With tons of deep-cut references and recognizable moments, each card captures a sliver of the wide world of Star Trek.

Where Can I Find Welcome Decks?

Magic: The Gathering | Star Trek Welcome Decks will be available at participating Wizards Play Network (WPN) game stores in the future. These decks are designed to be a teaching tool, so talk to your local game store about how you or a friend can learn to play Magic with these decks.

We're bringing Magic: The Gathering | Star Trek Welcome Decks to events across the quadrant! Attendees at ST:LV, a massive Star Trek convention in Las Vegas, Nevada, can learn to play Magic with their favorite Star Trek characters.
