Let's start with Foundations. This set doesn't aim to impress with stories of haunted mansions or squirrel rebellions. Instead, it focuses on being playable, understandable, and remarkably welcoming. This is crucial, especially with upcoming collaborations like Marvel and Final Fantasy through Universes Beyond. New players will enter the multiverse without context, so a solid introduction like Foundations is essential.

For those new to Magic, the Foundations Beginner Box is an excellent starting point, better than many kitchen-table tutorials I've seen. It includes pre-constructed decks, visual aids, and a guided tutorial that makes learning the game incredibly accessible. The Foundations Bundle, priced at $42.49, is below market price and comes packed with boosters and accessories, offering great value. Given that Foundations will remain in Standard for five years, it gives you ample time to master the game's intricacies, like understanding the stack.

Moving on to Aetherdrift, it's perfect for those who think Blasphemous Act could be even more explosive. The Aetherdrift Bundle is now $34.99, a $16 discount from its regular price. It features some of the wildest red spells and flashy threats to hit Standard recently, including Marauding Mako, a card that feels like a landshark with a temper, and Momentum Breaker, a mono-black card that's become a staple in aggressive Pixie decks—a surprising but exciting development.

Don't overlook Banner of Kinship, which can turn your Goblin deck into a surprise math quiz for your opponent.

As a fan of Ravnica sets, I'm drawn to the guild mechanics, and Ravnica Remastered feels like Wizards of the Coast throwing all the best elements into one nostalgic mix. You get classic Commander hits like Cyclonic Rift, unique tech like Cloudstone Curio, and alternate art versions that either thrill you or make you wonder if you're playing Magic or browsing anime concept art.

I've picked up a few sleeves myself, partly for a chance at Anime Borderless Bruvac, and partly because I can't resist reprint sets. At $5 per pack, they're a steal when they include Shock Lands and cards with endless combo potential.

For those already building for Commander or those whose collections are mostly impulse buys, the Fallout Commander Deck – Science! is on sale for $33.99, a $26 discount from retail. It includes Dogmeat, Ever Loyal, one of the best face Commanders from Universes Beyond, who can flood the board with Junk tokens if you focus on equipment and auras. This deck is an underrated powerhouse, and you get to play cards like Radstorm and Feral Ghoul, which sound like punk album B-sides but are surprisingly effective in-game.
