Kaldheim is a Norse/Viking-inspired set that will kick off Magic: The Gathering’s 2021. The set arrives in early February, which means that spoiler season is already underway and players have had a chance to check out the new rare land cycle and even one of the new planeswalker cards coming to the game this year.

The official Magic Twitch channel
The Zendikar Rising launch event ended up featuring a ton of exciting and surprising pieces of Magic news, so fans won’t want to miss this one. Things have been a little quiet surrounding the game over the winter holiday, but this stream should help generate some hype for the new set and kick off what is sure to be a barrage of press surrounding Kaldheim building up to its pre-release events and eventual launch.
It will be very interesting to see how Kaldheim impacts the Standard format and if it will include any cards that could be playable in Historic, Modern, or other formats. So far there have already been a handful of very interesting cards and deck brewers are already imagining ways that some of the new tools can work into existing decks or inspire new homebrews that could shake up the current MtG metagame landscape.
Magic: The Gathering - Kaldheim releases February 2, 2021. Other Magic: The Gathering sets are available now at game shops or digitally in Magic Arena.
