Magic Monday - June 2nd, 2025 - Labyrinth's Latest Magic: The Gathering News

Final Fantasy is almost here! Plus an RCQ, Chocobo Racing, and Elspeth, Storm Slayer!

It’s just another Magic Monday!

 

This is the week! Final Fantasy Prerelease starts this Friday!

 

All of our Prereleases are currently full, but even if you can’t make it out this weekend, we’ll be running Final Fantasy drafts as part of the Chocobo Racing Series all FF season long!

 

Chocobo Racing is a chance to earn cool swag, just for playing (and winning) Final Fantasy Drafts. Every week you’ll get three points for participating in the draft, and another point for each match you win. You can also earn a point by bringing a friend who signs up for a Wizards Account for the first time. Earn 10 points and you win a Chocobo Art Print. Earn 20 points and win an AR-Enhanced Pinfinity Chocobo Pin!

 

If you prefer your Magic more competitive, we’ve got you covered. Sunday, June 15th is our final RCQ of the season. Once again, the format is Modern. And there are cash prizes for the top eight finishers, as well as cool promos, and the opportunity to advance to a Regional Championship later this year!

 

The final big event of June is Magic Presents: Pride on June 29th. This is a Commander event with a special rule: all Commanders have Partner! You can combine any two commanders you want to form any pairing or archetype you can think of. It’s a very casual celebration of Magic’s diversity and inclusiveness, but registration is required. You can sign up at http://labyrinthdc.com/magic-events today.

 

As a reminder, the price of Casual Commander is increasing to $10 starting tomorrow. Players still receive a recent pack for participating, and we'll have some extra goodies to give away to those who stick with us. We want to once again thank our terrific Commander community for all their support over the years, and we hope we will see you again in the future.

 

This week’s featured single is Elspeth, Storm Slayer, from Tarkir: Dragonstorm. Elspeth is a pretty potent Planeswalker that doubles the number of tokens you create, without even activating a loyalty ability. And then when you use one of those loyalty abilities you can make tokens, remove a threat, or possibly pump your team to end the game. Already a collectible card, this particular copy is a foil Showcase version of Elspeth, which makes it even more rare. You can find this card at https://labyrinthgameshop.tcgplayerpro.com/ along with our other MTG singles.
