Description
The Magic: The Gathering | The Hobbit set takes you to Middle-earth, to the beginning of a timeless tale. With Bilbo, Gandalf and a company of dwarves, you set off from the Shire in search of treasure, adventure and the fearsome dragon Smaug, and in the shadow of the Lonely Mountain you fight for the treasures of Erebor. The Hobbit Play Booster Box contains 30 Play Booster packs, the best way to get to know the set, to play with friends and to enjoy opening packs.
How to play Magic: The Gathering
Magic: The Gathering is a collectible card game for two or more players. Each player has their own deck of cards and starts with 20 life points. Land cards give you mana, the magical energy you use to cast spells and summon creatures. You then attack your opponent with your creatures. A player who drops to 0 life points loses. Play Booster packs are made for the limited format, in which you build your deck only from the cards in the packs: each player builds a deck of at least 40 cards from the same number of unopened packs plus basic lands.
Why you will like it
- The cards show moments, songs and characters from The Hobbit, from the Shire to Erebor.
- Each pack has 14 cards, including 1 to 3 cards of Rare rarity or higher and at least one shiny Traditional Foil card.
- On top of the box is a shiny card from The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth set with special alternate art.
- 30 packs are enough for an evening of drafting with friends or for collecting the whole set.
Who is The Hobbit Play Booster Box for
The box is for Magic: The Gathering players and collectors aged 13 and up, and for fans of Tolkien's The Hobbit. A game takes about 20 minutes and is usually played by two players, with more in multiplayer formats. The cards are in English, so you need to understand the English text on them.
What you might not like
The contents of the packs are random, so you don't know which cards you will get. Beginners will find it easier to learn the rules with a starter set than from booster packs.
