We did it, folks! Cyber Monday is here, the final day of the pre-holiday sales-a-palooza-thon, which means there’s only so much time left to take advantage of these year-end Magic: The Gathering deals. We’ve been able to discounts across a range of Magic products, from booster boxes and Commander Decks to starter kits and bundles.
Looking to take your first steps? We recommend picking up the Assassin’s Creed Starter Kit, which has two ready-to-play decks and everything else you might need for your first match. Or you can try your luck with a Commander Deck, which is one of Magic’s most popular format — there are all kinds of themes available here, including a multiversal Doctor Who set and Outlaws of Thunder Junction, Magic’s first western-themed set. And if you’re looking for booster boxes specifically — perhaps you’re looking to really increase your collection or host a bespoke tournament with friends — you might want to act fast, as historically those have sold out quicker than other Magic items.
