Strictly Better (Magic Minigame) [Strixhaven: School of Mages Minigame]

3-6 players | 3-6 packs | 15 minutes

OBJECTIVE:

Some cards are strong in Standard, others shine in Draft, but which card looks the tastiest? Take turns being the Judge and decide which Magic card is the best of the best in each wacky category.

GET READY:

Randomly determine who will be the first Judge. Each player then opens a pack, removes any cards without Magic backs, and looks at their cards.

LET’S PLAY:

The Judge chooses a category from the list on the back of this card (either their favorite or at random). The other players each secretly submit a card from their pack that they think fits the category.

When the Judge has collected all the cards, they reveal each card, read it aloud, then choose the winner.

The Judge role then passes to the next player, and they select a different category.

TO WIN:

The first player to win three categories is the winner!
