As fall continues and the holiday season approaches, it's nearly time for the final Magic: The Gathering standard legal set of 2022 to hit the streets. It's been an exciting year for the collectible card game and fans have had a few months to enjoy Dominaria Unlimited, but the time to transition to The Brothers' War is fast approaching.
Pre-release events are set to kick off in just over a week, so many fans are currently devouring the visual spoilers and planning their strategies for the updated Limited and Constructed environments. Magic: The Gathering fans who want to commit some money to the digital version of the new set can also pick out which Magic Arena pre-order set is right for them this time around now that all of their contents have been revealed.
It's become tradition for the digital version of the game to offer some special cosmetic goodies along with a lot of packs or tournament tokens for players who want to drop some cash on the new set before it drops. There are currently two pre-order bundles available in the store (which will both disappear at launch) and both will run players just about $50.
As always, the options are tailored to a specific type of player. The first pass, Mishra's Pack, is a bit more appealing to Constructed players who want to build up a collection quickly without playing in a lot of drafts or sealed tournaments. The second bundle, Urza Play, is more for the daily grinder and includes the Set Mastery Pass and a handful of draft tokens.
