Yesterday, Wizards of the Coast celebrated its Magic Showcase 2021—A Magic: the encounter bringing together, if you will, an informative event detailing the coming years of the collectible card game. This includes a first look at the already announced (and highly anticipated) Universes Beyond sets inspired by the fantastic classic Lords of the Rings and beloved sci-fi miniature game Warhammer 40K.
There is no reason to do so, so:
Here is a small taste of the Warhammer 40K seven, which will arrive in 2022. Apart from the special versions, Universes Beyond The game with the iconic desktop franchise will focus on four Commander decks, which are unique larger decks based on a specific character and cards of the same color.
