Description

Magic Origins is the 17th and last Magic core set. It is grouped as a two-set block with Dragons of Tarkir for the purposes of Standard rotation under the new regime. This set is strongly integrated with its digital counterpart Magic Duels: Origins. The set contains 272 cards, which is 3 more than the current default for large sets (101 Commons, 80 Uncommons, 55 Rares, 16 Mythic Rares, 20 Basic Land [3]). An additional 15 cards appear in the sample decks. As a first since Alpha, this Core Set features two new mechanics. R&D considers Magic Origins not to be the "last core set", but a "new beginning" relating to the start of the Two-Block Paradigm and a new treatment of the storyline. The latter involves telling coherent, in-depth stories about the characters and carrying those out over story arcs across multiple sets. To enable this storytelling, there are more new cards in this set than in previous Core Sets.

Features

    This set will follow the origins stories of Gideon Jura, Jace Beleren, Liliana Vess, Chandra Nalaar, and Nissa Revane and their journey from mere mortals to Planeswalkers. It will feature two new mechanics as well!!

    Look for highly played reprints like Goblin Piledriver!!

    Each booster pack includes 15 cards to add to your collection—and you can expect one of those 15 to be a rare or mythic rare. Some packs even contain a premium foil card!

    Each booster box is brand new, sealed. Each box contains 36 booster packs, each pack contains 15 cards including at least 1 Rare and 3 Uncommon cards!

    Release Date July 17th 2015

There are few things that bring me closer to my childhood than opening a pack of cards, leafing through, and then wondering what could be in that next pack. Although the Amazon price is not the lowest I have found for this product--Channel Fireball sells the same booster box for $89.99--I was quite pleased with my purchase. I pulled one mythic rare in the first nine packs. The next day, I hit a hot spot in the middle of the box and got three mythic rares in five packs. I did not hit another hot spot until the end of the box, when I pulled two more mythic rares in three packs. In all, I definitely got what I paid for and then some. Here is a brief list of some of the cards I got that are worth more than a dollar:Jace, Vryn's Prodigy (Mythic)Nissa, Vastwood Seer (M)Archangel of Tithes (M)Disciple of the Ring FOIL (M)Pyromancer's Goggles (M)Alhammarret's Archive (M)Erebos's Titan (M)Thopter Spy Network (R)Evolutionary Leap (R)Sword of the Animist (R)Managorger Hydra (R)Harbinger of the Tides (R)Sphinx's Tutelage (U) (two copies)Tragic Arrogance (R)Dwynen, Gilt-Leaf Daen (R)Knight of the White Orchid (R)Herald of the Pantheon (R)Caves of Koilos (R)Dwynen's Elite (U) (two copies)I know that luck of the draw determines what you get, but as a first-time MTG card purchaser, I am also pleased that I am missing fewer than thirty-five cards to complete the set. I am debating whether to purchase another booster box in hopes of pulling a Kytheon, Liliana, and Hangarback Walker or buying them as singles, along with the rest of the missing cards. (I pulled a Chandra in a Fat Pack.) Given the fun I had opening my first box, I will probably opt for the former.UPDATE: I did buy another box, and I bought it from Amazon (to get more points on my Amazon credit card). I got almost all the cards I was missing after my initial purchases of a booster pack, Fat Pack, and Booster Box. In this box, I pulled nine foil cards, and as I had done in my initial review, the following were the best cards:Liliana, Heretical Healer (M)Hangarback Walker (R)Abbot of Keral Keep (R)Exquisite Firecraft (R)Day's Undoing (M)Goblin Piledriver (R)Languish (R)Woodland Bellower (M)Sword of the Animist (R)Evolutionary Leap (R)Animist's Awakening (R)Managorger Hydra (R)Thopter Spy Network (R)Harbinger of the Tides (R)Shaven Reef (R)Sphinx's Tutelage (U)Dwynen, Gilt-Leaf Daen (R)Battlefield Forge (R)Pia and Kiran Nalaar (R)Shaman of the Pack (U)The Great Aurora (M)Willbreaker FOIL (R)Bounding Krasis FOIL (U)Swift Reckoning FOIL (U)This is becoming an addiction. Now that my set is complete (after ordering singles online), I will have to find an excuse to buy another box.
