It's Officially The End of an Era For Magic: The Gathering

From GameRant (Written by Andrea Trama) on | OpenCritic

Today just marked the end of an almost 20-year-old era for Magic: The Gathering, and this time, it seems to be for good. Magic: The Gathering is slightly over 33 years old, with the first-ever set being Alpha, which launched in early August 1993. As such, almost 20 years out of 33 is a very long time for the franchise, and it all ends today with the official launch of the Reality Fracture set. Despite being available for pre-release for a week now, Reality Fracture's proper release is today.

This is one of the most hyped sets in recent memory, as it not only features all the original planeswalkers from 2007 in one story, but it also has powerful cards and wraps up a major storyline. MTG's Reality Fracture brings back the OG Tarmogoyf as a Mythic that is now playable in Standard, it adds new versions of various characters and events with different colors, and it makes the iconic Blue planeswalker Jace Beleren the enemy of this new set. There is a lot to unpack in Reality Fracture, but as it stands, this is the final appearance of Jace due to his death.
