WHAT IS MTG ACADEMY: LEARN TO PLAY?

Magic Academy: Learn to Play is the first of a two-part series that takes Welcome Decks and additional material support to create an awesome new player experience. Yes, you get to keep the Welcome Deck! Brand new players will learn how to play with a video demo, handy brochure, and pocket reference cards they can continue to use during games. Then, players will be paired up to play friendly games.

 

WHAT IS MTG ACADEMY: DECK BUILDING?

Magic Academy: Deck Building is the second of this two-part series that guides players through deck building and their first foray into Limited format play. Each player purchases 6x Play Boosters (or leftover Prerelease Packs if we have any available) to build a deck. This is good practice for any Prerelease events for upcoming future sets and gives a good base for one of the the best parts of MTG; deck building.

Players will sort out their cards, identify the cards they want to build around, then build their first 40-card deck. Before event organizers split players into pairs for casual one-on-one matches, we include a deck review phase where new players show their deck to experienced staff or players who can provide advice to those building a deck for the first time.

Experienced players can use Magic Academy: Learn to Play & Deckbuilding as their opportunity to teach family and friends and help welcome the next generation of Magic players into the Gathering.
