Throughout the long history of Magic: The Gathering, the game’s designers have invented a wide variety of settings (or planes in Magic speak). We've seen sets based around rival factions on the planet-wide city of Ravnica, horror vibes in the gothic land of Innistrad, and warring clans in war-torn Tarkir. With so many to choose from, even the most popular planes can be abandoned for years as the game’s story moves on to explore new places, but Wizards of the Coast seems to have a new favorite setting. It’s not a plane at all, but New York City.
New York is now one of MTG's most popular settings
