Magic: The Gathering's creators made several announcements concerning the March of the Machine expansion. It will arrive in April 2023 with some truly powerful cards that will be available for players across both Commander and Standard formats. However, the first one is getting a little something extra.
It also was confirmed this weekend that Planechase, a classic multiplayer mode, is coming back to Magic: The Gathering and will be part of the expansion. Each of March of the Machine's Commander decks will contain 10 Planechase cards, five new and five classic reprints. Here’s what is known about these items and the classic mode.
Magic: The Gathering’s upcoming March of the Machine expansion will feature five new Commander decks. Each of them will feature 10 Planechase cards, a planar die, and a Collector Booster Sample Pack.
Planechase was initially released as an additional set for Magic: The Gathering back in 2009 and included four “game packs.” Each of these had 10 oversized planar cards, a planar die, and a 60-card deck. The various planes (cards) were places in MTG’s lore, and bringing it back for this expansion makes sense.
When it's a player's turn in Planechase, they can roll the planar die each time they use sorcery. The first move is free, and each subsequent one costs 1 Mana Colorless more than the previous roll. If you get the Planeswalker symbol, the current plane's owner puts their card at the Planar deck's bottom. Whoever rolled the die uses the new plane in play.
Each plane has a Chaos ability that is triggered by rolling the die's Chaos side. Using it is an exciting way to play Magic: The Gathering, and especially Commander.
The three cards presented below are going to be among the MTG planar cards.
