Wizards Announces a Brand New TCG by MTG Head Designer
Key Points:
- Mood Swings, a new trading card game designed by MTG Head Designer Mark Rosewater, is officially launching on June 1st via Secret Lair after 28 years in development.
- The game features a unique format where all players use the same deck, consisting of 45 random cards out of a total 133 collectible cards across four rarities, with no mana costs and simplified rules.
- Mood Swings uses artwork from Magic: The Gathering sketches but adopts an emotional theme rather than a fantasy setting, aiming for a quick, accessible gameplay experience explained via a single double-sided rules card and an online tutorial.
- Gameplay involves players playing one card per turn, with the winner of each round determined by the highest total card value on the board, and the overall winner being the first to win three rounds.
- The game's price, full card list, and potential for future printings remain undisclosed, with further details expected at MagicCon: Las Vegas, while early online reactions show excitement among potential players.
