But what is a Prerelease event? These events are hosted at local game stores and let you play with a new set a week ahead of its release. When you register for one of these events, you’ll receive a Magic: The Gathering | Marvel’s Spider-Man Prerelease Pack that contains the following:

  • 6 Magic: The Gathering | Marvel’s Spider-Man Play Boosters
  • 1 Traditional foil year-stamped rare or mythic rare card
  • 1 Deck box
  • 1 Spindown die (from among five total color variations)

Prereleases are typically run as Sealed events, which means you’ll construct a 40-card deck out of the contents of your Prerelease Pack and any number of basic lands. For more information from Wizards on the prerelease, check here: https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/feature/spider-man-prerelease-guide

Meanwhile our studious heroes, here are some new keywords to brush up on:

Web-Slinging

  • Web-slinging represents an alternative cost. If another effect allows you to play a card for a different alternative cost, including “without paying its mana cost,” you can’t also choose to pay its web-slinging cost. If any additional costs from other sources are applied, you must pay those.
  • You must follow all normal timing rules when casting a spell with web-slinging. For creatures, that usually means you must cast it during a main phase of your turn while the stack is empty.
  • The creature you return must be tapped at the time you pay costs, but doesn’t necessarily need to be tapped before you start casting the spell. For example, if you tap a creature with a mana ability to pay part of the spell’s web-slinging cost, you could also return that creature to your hand to pay the cost.
  • If any permanent has an ability that triggers when the permanent you return leaves the battlefield, that ability will be put on the stack after you finish casting the spell, and it will resolve before that spell.

Mayhem

  • Mayhem represents an alternative cost that can be paid to cast a spell from your graveyard if you discarded the card with mayhem that turn. You must pay any additional costs the spell has.
  • You must follow all normal timing rules when casting a spell with mayhem. For example, you can’t cast a creature card with mayhem you couldn’t normally cast during an opponent’s turn, even if you discard that card during an opponent’s turn.
