We dont have to make Universes Beyond cards that are simple - we just have to pick moments that are recognizable, and theyll be easy for fans to understand. As for how exactly they translate those moments and the world around them into a Magic set, Head Designer Mark Rosewater tells me Magics color pie is robust enough that we have the ability to show heroism and villainy in all five colors. As an example, Rosewater says Spider-Man would be white, blue, and green (although the specific version in the Scene Box above is only those first two)
This card works very well in Commander decks that dont let the mana empty from the mana pool, like Kruphix, God of Horizons, or cards that let you untap your permanents, like Seedborn Muse or Wilderness Reclamation
To achieve that focus, lets look at a few cards that might be worth adding to this Tales of Middle-Earth MTG starter deck
Its one of the best X spells in Commander, but its not in our top ten
Unlike The Lord of the Rings translation to cardboard, this Universes Beyond wont be a full set on its own
