This episode is part three of an eight-part series where I go through the entire history of Magic design to talk about design evolution over the years.

Once a week, the Magic designers get together to talk through technical design issues. That meeting is called "Cardcrafting," and I talk about it in this podcast.

Dive into the transformative journey of Magic design, exploring how it evolved from individual sets to thematic blocks. Discover the innovations sparked by key sets like Tempest and Urza's Saga. Hear about vital lessons in power balance and naming mechanics that shaped card design, and learn about the growing collaboration between creative teams that hinted at future developments in gameplay.

In this episode, I take all the sets I talked about in my "State of Design 2024" article (The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth™ through Modern Horizons 3) and walk through every new mechanic with my personal thoughts on them and what we've learned about them.
