Wizards of the Coast throws a bone to players who miss vanilla Magic: The Gathering with a dragon-themed set called Tarkir: Dragonstorm

The last few years of Magic: The Gathering have seen a lot of crossovers, like Fallout and Middle-earth, as well as sets with unusual themes like the cute animals of Bloomburrow and the grand prix race of Aetherdrift. Given how well most of these sets have sold, obviously this has been a popular move with the players actually buying cards—not that you’d know it based on Reddit threads and YouTube comments, which are full of players demanding a return to Magic’s trad lore.

The complainers get their wish in Tarkir: Dragonstorm, a set that puts the most straight-up fantasy creature you can imagine front and centre, and returns to a setting that debuted in 2014’s Khans of Tarkir. It’s a plane where five khanates, each based on a different east or central Asian culture, are in conflict with impossibly powerful Dragon Lords, and where a magic storm keeps giving birth to more dragons. It’s generic fantasy enough that Brandon Sanderson could get a trilogy out of it by lunch.
