Magic: The Gathering Finally Lets One Spider-Man Break Out of Their Rule Prison

Over time, the Universes Beyond collections for Magic: The Gathering have sparked differing opinions among players. Some find these crossovers jarring when it comes to the game’s established lore and player expectations, while others believe they help draw in newcomers who might not have considered the game otherwise. It makes sense that there would be disagreement as these popular IPs introduce novel mechanics such as Avatar’s bending mechanics into Magic: The Gathering. However, even when a character like Spider-Man seems to bend the rules, it is only within the unique framework established by Magic: The Gathering itself.
