4 giugno 2024

We've had a year packed with Magic: The Gathering releases so far, and MTG Modern Horizons 3 is the next set to join the lineup. You might remember the first Modern Horizons set from 2019 or Modern Horizons 2 from 2021, but a full rundown of what’s in this brand-new straight-to-Modern set will still be beneficial.

One of the reasons MTG remains one of the best card games is its strong competitive scene, with format balancing being a crucial aspect. Straight-to-Modern sets like Modern Horizons 3 are designed to introduce powerful, versatile cards to the Modern format without disrupting the metagame.

Previews have just begun, revealing plenty of exciting new additions and valuable reprints.

All in all, Modern Horizons 3 features the return of 40 mechanics. Depending on your familiarity with the game, you might react with anything from “Great, they're bringing that back!” to “What does that one do again?” Thankfully, the cards will likely include helpful reminder text.
