Magic: The Gathering Unleashes Tarkir: Dragonstorm – A Battle of Clans and Dragons

Wizards of the Coast launches Prerelease events for Tarkir: Dragonstorm, the latest expansion for the world-renowned Magic: The Gathering (MTG). Fans will return to the legendary plane of Tarkir, where ferocious dragons and warring clans clash in an epic struggle for survival. Get ready to ignite your decks with new abilities, legendary creatures, and breathtaking card treatments before the tabletop release on April 11.

Enter the Dragonstorm

Tarkir is engulfed in chaotic and mystical dragonstorms, spawning mighty new Spirit Dragons that challenge the supremacy of the old dragonlords. As Narset and Elspeth race to prevent the dragonstorms from spilling beyond the plane, Sarkhan Vol stands in their way. Meanwhile, Jace delves deep into the Meditation Realm, seeking a secret that could alter the multiverse forever.

This expansion brings powerful new Dragon-themed mechanics:

• Dragonstorms – Enchantments with explosive effects that return to your hand when you play a Dragon, letting you recast their abilities repeatedly.
• Omen – A new card subtype allowing players to choose between casting a small spell or summoning a massive Dragon, creating strategic flexibility.

Choose Your Clan, Shape Your Destiny

The five iconic clans of Tarkir return, each with their own unique playstyle and new keyword mechanics:

• Abzan (White, Black, Green) – Endure: Strengthen your creatures with +1/+1 counters or summon resilient Spirit tokens.
• Jeskai (Blue, Red, White) – Flurry: Unleash spell-slinging combos with abilities that trigger when you cast multiple spells in a turn.
• Sultai (Black, Blue, Green) – Renew: Reclaim power from the graveyard by exiling cards for devastating effects.
• Mardu (Red, White, Black) – Mobilize: Swarm the battlefield with an army of aggressive creatures that generate temporary reinforcements.
• Temur (Green, Blue, Red) – Harmonize: Harness massive creatures and reduce costs by tapping them for additional mana.

Commander Decks & Collector’s Treasures

Each clan features its own Commander Deck, led by a legendary leader and a Spirit Dragon, offering players an immersive, ready-to-play multiplayer experience. But the real hunt is for Mox Jasper, a prized artifact available in Play Boosters and Collector Boosters, with an ultra-rare serialized edition (only 500 copies!) featuring exclusive Dan Frazier artwork.
