After playing, Gnome and Wizards has a few promos as a thanks for joining the community of Magic the Gathering!

Take to a brand new frontier of prerelease with our Commander Box League Prerelease!

That’s right Magic players, with the prerelease of Edge of Eternities there’s also a new type of prerelease: the Commander Box League! For this event all participants who’d like to participate buy a box of play boosters of Edge of Eternities and build a 60 card Commander deck from the cards they pull. There are, however, a few twists. The first is that you can run any number of a card that you get from our box, the second being that you can build with any acquired cards even if they don’t fit within your color identity! Players then duel against their opponents who did the same thing, modifying their decks between rounds as needed, to be the best in the galaxy!

How Does Faster-Than-Light Travel Work?

Faster-than-light travel requires three components:

  1. A vessel equipped with an eternity drive.
  2. Proximity to an eternity column so that the column can transmit sufficient power to the ship (and diffuse whatever feedback might spike as a result) and propel them into the Weft.
  3. A Pinnacle codebook to correctly align one’s starting point and finishing point

With these three conditions met, a ship has the technical ability to travel faster than light. Among Pinnacle socients, faster-than-light travel is colloquially called warp or “Weft” travel. When a vessel travels in this method it plunges into the parallel lamellae behind the Chaos Wall—”the Eternities” or “Weft” (the latter is a term borrowed from Drix culture)—and then reemerges at its destination point.”
