What’s the iconic Fallout experience? Is it talking the final boss into changing their philosophy, or is it shooting mutants in the ruins of America? Those are easier things to highlight, memorable peaks that make for good videos, but they’re not true to what we do the most when we’re playing those games. We spend hours and hours reading people’s private emails and descriptions of the days leading up to the Big One, and picking up too many mugs then having to filter our inventories.

This Fallout crossover comes in the form of four decks for Magic’s Commander format, each with a different theme. One, called Scrappy Survivors, features Dogmeat as its Commander and goes heavy on Junk tokens—a new mechanic for this set allowing you to exile a card from the top of your deck and, if you’ve got the mana, play it that same turn. It’s like you’re sifting through the trash in search of treasure, just like you do in Fallout with Dogmeat’s help.
There’s also the Gary Clone, which borrows the Squad mechanic from Magic’s Warhammer 40,000 crossover. That lets you summon copies of Gary when you play him for two extra mana—as many Garys as you want. And the more Gary Clones you have, the more powerful they become. I can hear his haunting cry right now.

But cameos for named characters aren’t the thing that made me interested in this crossover. That was the way it understands what it’s actually like to play Fallout, and how that’s represented in the cards. For one more example, the cards for Vaults aren’t locations but Sagas, which suits the way they’re represented in the videogames—isolated chapters that begin when you crack the door and end when it closes behind you, each telling a short story of its own.

If I’m honest, I was also pretty sold when I saw that some of the cards have Pip-Boy theming that surrounds the art with green status text and covers it in CRT lines like you’re seeing it in-game. Yes, I do want a card of Dogmeat in a Fallout-themed menu screen, sitting like a good boy while he’s being photographed with a Pip-Boy.
Magic: The Gathering x Falloutwill be available globally from March 8. Check yourlocal WPN storefor release events.
