What is MTG about!

MTG represents you and another player playing as “Planeswalkers” who use Spells Creatures and Items and equipment to overwhelm and conquer your opponent.

Other uses other than playing the game.If you are someone who doesn’t have a lot of time. Than you can collect. So far there are, besides thirteen starter sets, fifty-one sets with usually three making up a set block, for example Ice Age, Alliances and Coldsnap make up one block while Lorwyn, Morningtide, Shadowmoor, and Eventide make up another. Within the three block sets most of the cards stay around the theme of the beginning blocks. Most blocks are different from one another by having different themes and different places, while some stay in the same place but takes place somewhere else.

Anything Other Than Cards?Yes, Wizards of the Coast also has novels published with each sets release for instance the Zendikar block also features a novel which is based on the characters printed on the card sets. This is so people (like me) can read what the block represents and a chance to get a character image in our minds. Other than books there are a couple of Video Games Collected and an Online Community.
