Pros

Game night set teaches kids how to play and teaches old farts about rules set a long time ago when we were their age. Easy to learn and great starter for multiplayer.

I'm new to mtg and wanted to introduce this game to my gf. The cards themselves are decent. All seems to be fine.

The box layout is nice for unsleeved cards. The 20 sided dice for tracking health are nice quality. The only complaint is that the box this comes in leaves zero room if you want to sleeve your cards (even single sleeved) the box includes tokens for ea...  Read More

The decks are well-balanced with very few duplicates. The rules of magic itself are long and can be confusing at first but honestly this was pretty well done with simplicity. Combining decks is a lot of fun and enables multiple people to play balanced...  Read More

The deck quality was great for the price and i think they're fairly balanced in order to run them against each other without ha...  Read More


Together i paid $40 for each 5-deck set for each edition and didn't even get full decks.


If you bought five decks in a base set like i did in the past, you would pay $8 for each 40 card deck, you would not receive a ...  Read More

Packaging/appearance


Got all delivered in perfect condition, the decks look very cool and themes are good.


Edit: i noticed that the booklet lists zombify as a card in the black deck but was not in the box.


The box includes tokens for each of the decks, spindown d20s for tracking life totals, and cardboard +1/+1 counters.


My only complaint is that the box this comes in leaves zero room if you want to sleeve your cards (even single sleeved).

Competitiveness
