Magic: The Gathering Foundation brings us some game-changing cards, including a 15-year-old rule change, to the game format. These changes all align with what the new set brings to the table\u2014simplicity in its purest form. By making the game simpler (by introducing easy-to-grasp cards and deck archetypes), it’ll help new players join and play the game.<\/p>

Now, once players research the different types of formats, such as standard or commander, they might get intimidated or overwhelmed. Which one do you play or build around? What are the rule sets for each? Well, the Foundations set prepares new players by introducing several simple product variants. <\/p>

The Beginner Box equips the player with all the essentials to immediately play the game for a low price. The Starter Collection helps players build their own decks from a large selection of cards in the collection. The Foundations Bundle gives players more flexibility by giving nine booster packs for collectors and deck builders while offering free accessories in the bundle. The rest of the products, such as the Booster Box and the Collector’s Box, are mainly for collectors who want more foils, mythics, and borderless variants to complete their collection. <\/p>
