Magic: the Gathering - War of the Spark Booster Box

Magic the Gathering (MtG) is a collectable card game for 2 or more players. Each game represents a battle between powerful wizards known as Planeswalkers, who have the ability to travel the multiverse.

Players will cast spells, summon creatures and deploy artifacts to overcome their opponents. Typically, a player will win by reducing their opponents starting life points to zero, but there are other paths to victory.

To play the game, each player will need a deck of at least 60 cards. Players may use pre-constructed decks or customised decks created from their personal card collection.

War of the Spark is the 81st expansion for MtG, released on 3 May 2019. The core set is comprised of 264 cards: 101 commons, 80 uncommons, 53 rares, 15 mythic rares, and 15 basic lands.

It is the fourth expansion to be based in Ravnica - and is the final instalment in the 'Guild of Ravnica block'. (The collective name given to War of the Spark, Ravnica Allegiance, and Guilds of Ravnica sets. These sets share common themes and form part of a larger story, the Bolas arc.)

The accompanying story revolves around the war between Nicol Bolas and the planeswalkers assembled against him.

The predominant theme in War of the Spark is planeswalkers and they feature prominently, 36 planeswalkers are included in the set. In addition, there is one signature spell card included for each planeswalker.

This expansion can be played in isolation, or combined with cards from other expansions for more varied play.
