Modern has been designated as the Constructed format for the upcoming RCQ cycle, heightening its significance in the competitive Magic scene.
The result is a vast array of viable strategies, offering players an exhilarating level of diversity for tournament play. This extensive pool of cards gives Modern its distinctive flavor, boasting intricate card interactions that surpass those found in Pioneer or Standard. Interestingly, as Eighth Edition was released on July 29, 2003, we can proudly declare during the Pro Tour that Modern is comprised of exactly twenty years of card history.
It allows expansion sets, core sets, and Modern Horizons sets from Eight Edition forward, with the exception of cards on the banned list. Modern, a nonrotating 60-card format, was introduced in 2011 and has captured the hearts of Magic: the Gathering players worldwide ever since. In this article, we'll examine the metagame landscape prior to the tournament, as well as the impact of The Lord of The Rings: Tales of Middle-earth™. As we gear up for this highly anticipated event, taking place from July 28 to 30, let's delve into the world of Modern. With just nine days and counting until Pro Tour The Lord of The Rings kicks off at MagicCon: Barcelona, the excitement is palpable.
