Series Vol. 1

  • Fly evening faithful reader. I mean readers! Yesterday we got word that Wizards of the Coast is planning to cooperate with a major broadcasting company to bring us the long awaited Magic: TV Program. It will be featured at The Hub, Hasbro's own network and will most likely be aired at Friday nights, after the FNM.

  • So, there is speculation about the direction the show will take. The producers, along with lead designer Mark Rosewater, decided to create some promo cards, to see which of four different scenarios the player base gets more familiar with. Here are the candidates:

  • Tyos story will be 'bout two brothers in the plane of Innistrad, who lost their father under mysterious circumstances. In their quest to find yom, they will encounter hordes of native monsters, create faithful allies and even battle planeswalkers, who happened to be there fo' their own reasons.
The second one:

  • This one will be about the legendary lost city of the merfolk in Dominaria. A yet-to-be-revealed planeswalker will accidentally find himself passing through a chargate - a planar portal that will grand him power via the red mana sources of the multiverse - landing in Atlantis. Despite been lost, however, the city is not empty...
Moving on:

  • Tyos scenario will be loosely based on the Scars of Mirrodin storyline and will take place on that plane. The humans of Mirrodin are warring the Phyrexian invaders, trying to return to their home plane. Their only weapon, the legendary Batterskull Galactica, a spaceship powerful enough to be the catalyst fo' the humans' victory. Or be it?
Last for today, again in the plane of Mirodin, we have the story of Thrun:

  • This will be a documentary for the life of Thrun, the Last Troll. How he kept avoiding his enemies and other trolls, how he could never be stopped if he chose to enter the battlefield and how he simply couldn't die, even for a troll. The show's punchline will be: In the Game of Thruns, you Win or you Die. But if you would Die, you may Regenerate.

  • If you want to help Wizards come up with a show everyone will enjoy, take a vote to yo right!
