Magic: The collection Already have a lot on his plate for the rest of 2025, with Spider-Man officially released in three days with WotC's Magiccon Atlanta panel around next year, and Avatar Set also comes in November, just a few days after the prohibited and limited post. With six main sets during the year, some fans feel like it is difficult to keep up with all the news about Magic: The collectionAnd this can be especially true for those who play standard and/or juggle several formats. Nevertheless, the magicians for the coast's marketing for new sets are not slowing soon, and the third UB set for next year can now be clear.
One of the driving factors for the universe in addition to sets is that they should be tied to IPs who are very popular and are releasing something new, such as a movie, a game or maybe a specific product line. Yesterday was Hobbit Day, and Wizards of the Coast released a short animated video on Twitter with the caption “Happy Birthday Mr. Baggins!”, Which may very well just be a nod for Bilbo's birthday. However, the animated video contains brand new art that does not come from MtgS Lord of the rings Set up, and in the end you can see runes on Bilbo's house door that Gandalf carved to tell the dwarves where to go before the events in The hobby.
Why a magic: The Gathering the Hobbit Set is perfect meaning
Magic: The collectioncommanders' tires for Lotr Included a card called Bilbo, Birthday Celebrant, after all, so it would make sense for magicians to simply make an appreciation item for the beloved character. But sorcerers rarely make new art or even videos dedicated to something without any obvious reason other than celebration, and there are some reasons why it would be perfect for this to be a teaser for a set of The hobby. These are:
-
2026 marks the 25th anniversary of the debut of The community of the ring.
-
A new one Lotr Film called Hunting for Gollum Was tentatively scheduled for December 2026 before a new date in December 2027 was announced.
-
2026 marks the 49th anniversary of the publication of SilmarillionFirst was published in 1977.
-
The original Lotr sed to Magic: The collection Be extremely popular and sold just as well, so a new set of dedicated Middle-Earth is a matter of when rather than if.
-
The trolls of the coast (and thus Mtg) Owned by Hasbro, who has already collaborated with Warner Bros. several times to make Lord of the rings Toys.
-
The animated video shared by wizards on twitter specifically references The hobby with never before seen art that is not bound to Lotr Set and would not fit their timeline.
-
Similar videos have not been made before, although the original Lotr Set came out in June 2023. Wizards could have released such a video in September 2023 or September 2024, but did not, which further cement this as a teaser rather than a celebration video.
Given that Lotr was one of the most well -received universe beyond sets Magic: The collectionIf not the best, or at least in a level with Final fantasyIt is a no-brainer for magicians to take advantage of it with a second one that follows the new standard-legal formula. This is also very likely to be a teaser, given that the roadmap for next year will be released shortly.
