Magic: The Gathering is powering into 2023 with March of the Machine, which lead designer Mark Rosewater called the Magic product he is most excited about this year. Previews for the set have already begun ahead of its release. Here's what you need to know about the new cards. Spoilers ahead.
As it stands, things aren't looking good for the Magic multiverse. Elesh Norn and the Phyrexians successfully activated their Realmbreaker device, allowing them to launch full-scale invasions of other planes. The newest spoilers show the Phyrexians at the apex of their power, converting fan-favorite MTG characters into brainwashed minions and laying waste to beloved worlds. As crazy as that sounds, Rosewater said these previews "barely scratch the surface."
That being said, don't proceed if you want to come into March of the Machine fresh!
