MTG targets new players after Play boosters, seeking to improve first-time experiences

Game designers of Magic: The Gathering Mark Rosewater and Mike Turian addressed community concerns over Play boosters on Oct. 17 through MTGWeekly, while dropping a teaser of big changes in the works for the new player experience. 

Play boosters coming to MTG were the hot topic of conversation during the Oct. 17 episode of MTGWeekly. The booster pack that will eventually replace Draft and Set boosters with the launch of Murders at Markov Manor is meant to simplify products from a retailer’s and consumer’s perspective. Limited gameplay will change the most because of MTG Play boosters, and a question was asked during the MTGWeekly stream if the new booster and its effects on Limited, would affect the new player experience, as well.
