Magic the Gathering enthusiasts have reason to celebrate as Wizards of the Coast prepares to release the much-anticipated “Tarkir: Dragonstorm” set this April! This expansion marks a thrilling return to the fan favorite plane of Tarkir, which is renowned for its rich history of dragon dominance and clan warfare.
Tarkir has five distinct clans—Abzan Houses, Jeskai Way, Mardu Horde, Sultai Brood, and Temur Frontier—clash amidst the resurgence of formidable dragons. New mechanics unique to each clan will be introduced, enhancing strategic depth and deck-building diversity. For instance, the Jeskai clan introduces “Flurry,” rewarding players for casting multiple spells in a turn, while the Sultai’s “Renew” allows for strategic graveyard interactions. This set aims to blend the best elements of the original Tarkir block, offering both dragon-centric themes and factional gameplay!
An example among the standout cards is “Tempest Hawk,” which breaks conventional deck-building rules by permitting unlimited copies in a deck, encouraging swarm tactics. Another notable inclusion is “Fortress Kin-Guard” from the Abzan clan, offering versatility by generating multiple creatures or summoning a singular powerful entity, making it a valuable asset in both sealed and draft formats.
Tarkir: Dragonstorm will reignite the passion of seasoned Magic players by revisiting a cherished plane with fresh mechanics, captivating lore, and a host of powerful cards. Whether you’re a veteran planeswalker or new to the game, this set offers an exhilarating experience that embodies the spirit of the MtG universe.
