The latest Magic set Wilds of Eldraine has ten two-color draft archetypes centered around classic fairy tales, enchantments, and epic adventures.
Magic: The Gathering’s newest expansion set, Wilds of Eldraine, will unleash the power of fairy tales and eternal slumber when it releases on September 8th. Wilds of Eldraine takes place on the post-Phyrexian invasion plane of Eldraine, a world besieged by wicked witches and the nightmarish horrors of Ashiok the planeswalker. All the fairy tale action will unfold not just in Standard when this set releases, but also in Limited formats like draft and sealed.
Wilds of Eldraine is a large, complicated expansion set that brings back the best elements of Throne of Eldraine, like Adventures, Food tokens, and “enchantments matter” themes, while also adding exciting new effects like Bargain, Celebration, and even token enchantments called Roles. There’s a lot to unpack in Wilds of Eldraine for Limited, including the inner workings of its 10 two-color draft archetypes and the fairy tales that they represent. Knowing all this can give any draft player a serious edge at their local game store’s Limited events.
