Let's start with Foundations. This set isn't about spinning tales of haunted mansions or squirrel-led uprisings. It's all about being playable, readable, and surprisingly welcoming to new players. This is crucial, especially with upcoming Universes Beyond collaborations with Marvel and Final Fantasy. New players will need a solid introduction to the multiverse, and Foundations offers that perfect on-ramp.

If you're new to Magic, the Foundations Beginner Box is an excellent starting point. It's better than most human attempts at explaining Magic over a kitchen table, with pre-constructed decks, visual aids, and a guided tutorial that make learning the game a breeze. The Foundations Bundle, available for $42.49, offers great value with boosters and accessories, especially since it will remain in Standard for five years, giving you ample time to master the game.

Moving on to Aetherdrift, this set is for those who crave more after seeing cards like Blasphemous Act. The Aetherdrift Bundle is now $34.99, a solid $16 off its usual price. It includes some of the most exciting red spells and flashy threats to hit Standard recently, like Marauding Mako—a landshark with a temper—and Momentum Breaker, a versatile tool for aggressive Pixie decks.

Magic: The Gathering Ravnica Remastered Draft Booster Sleeve

Foundations also boasts some desirable chase cards. Keep an eye out for Rise of the Dark Realms with its new Borderless treatment and Sire of Seven Deaths, an Eldrazi with seven keywords that might give you a rules headache. Don't overlook Banner of Kinship, which can turn your Goblin deck into a challenging math problem for your opponent.

Ravnica Remastered is also part of this sale. You can pick up a Ravnica Remastered Draft Booster Sleeve for $4.99, down from $6.99. This is a cost-effective way to chase format staples like Crypt Ghast, Spark Double, and Divine Visitation, perfect for bulk opening or adding to a sealed night with friends.

I've always had a soft spot for Ravnica sets, drawn in by the guild mechanics. Ravnica Remastered is like Wizards of the Coast tossing all the best bits into a nostalgic blender. You'll find a mix of old-school Commander hits like Cyclonic Rift, quirky tech like Cloudstone Curio, and alternate art versions that might either enchant you or make you wonder if you're playing Magic or browsing an anime concept art book.

I couldn't resist picking up a few sleeves myself, partly for the chance at Anime Borderless Bruvac and partly because I have no self-control when it comes to reprint sets. At $5 per pack, you don't need to justify the expense when they include Shock Lands and cards with infinite combo potential.

Magic: The Gathering Fallout Commander Deck - Science!

1$59.99 save 43%$33.99 at Best Buy

For those already building for Commander or admitting their collection is mostly impulse buys, the Fallout Commander Deck – Science! is on sale for $33.99. That's a hefty $26 off the retail price, and it includes Dogmeat, Ever Loyal, a stellar face Commander from Universes Beyond. This deck is an underrated powerhouse, and you get to play cards like Radstorm and Feral Ghoul, which sound like punk rock B-sides but are surprisingly effective in-game.

While I'm usually indifferent to playmats, the Mana 8 stitched-edge ones are genuinely stunning. At $16.49 each, they're a dramatic yet affordable addition to your setup. The Lotus design, in particular, is understated perfection.
