Take your first steps into Magic at your local game store with Magic Academy. Players will be able to learn the basics of gameplay with Welcome Decks, dive into the guidelines of deckbuilding, and start their collection with beginner-focused products. Ready to ignite your spark and enter the Multiverse?
Magic Academy is the brand-new learn-to-play experience at your local game store. These events will provide you with the tools you need to start playing. With two separate events that will hone your spell-slinging skills, players will not only learn about the game, but also about their gaming community.
You can supercharge your deck with Darksteel Colossus, a titanic creature capable of turning the tides of battle. Players who purchase any introductory product as part of a Magic Academy event will receive this borderless copy of Darksteel Colossus while supplies last.
Intro products include Starter Kits, the Foundations Beginner Box or Starter Collection, and six or more Play Boosters from a set. That last one includes Bundles or Play Booster boxes!
The first Magic Academy event is the Learn to Play event, an introductory guide to the rules and cards of the game. Participants will receive a Welcome Deck with entry, containing two 30-card decks, each of a different color. Simple shuffle those together and you have your deck!
Next, check out your local game store's events. Perhaps you’ll put your deckbuilding skills to the test at a Prerelease event? You might want to take your gaming experience on the go with MTG Arena. We’ve given you the tools, now it’s your choice on how you want to play.
Foundations is a great place to start, with cards that capture iconic characters and spells from across Magic’s history. Check them out in the Card Image Gallery and add them to your deck for an event at your local game store.
