How Do Unfinity Attractions Work?
Unfinity is a unique and exciting set of Magic: The Gathering cards that brings a new level of interactivity to the game. One of the key features of Unfinity is its Attractions, which are special cards that allow players to visit and interact with them in new and innovative ways. But how do these Attractions work? In this article, we’ll dive into the details of Unfinity Attractions and explore what makes them so special.
Rolling to Visit Attractions
At the beginning of your first main phase on each of your turns, you roll a six-sided die to visit your Attractions. If the result is lit up on an Attraction you control, you visit that Attraction, causing its visit ability to trigger. This mechanic adds a fun and unpredictable element to the game, as you never know which Attraction you’ll visit on any given turn.
What Are the Different Types of Attractions?
Unfinity has 34 cards (all being Attractions) in the set, with multiple variants. These Attractions can be categorized into several different types, including:
- Ticket Attractions: These Attractions require tickets to visit and can be used to pay costs for other cards.
- Keyword Attractions: These Attractions have specific keywords that trigger when visited, such as "draw a card" or "deal 2 damage".
- Power/Toughness Attractions: These Attractions have power and toughness values that can be used to attack or defend.
- Proliferate Attractions: These Attractions can create more sticker counters for yourself and other players.
How Do I Use My Attractions?
Using your Attractions is easy! Simply roll the die at the beginning of your turn and visit the Attraction that matches the result. Each Attraction has its own unique ability that will trigger when visited. For example, a Ticket Attraction might allow you to pay a cost for a card, while a Keyword Attraction might draw you a card.
What Are the Rules for Using Attractions?
Here are some key rules to keep in mind when using Attractions:
- Attractions can only be visited once per turn: You can only visit one Attraction per turn, so make sure to choose wisely!
- Attractions can’t be visited in response to a spell or ability: You can’t use an Attraction’s ability in response to a spell or ability.
- Attractions can’t be used to trigger abilities: You can’t use an Attraction’s ability to trigger another ability.
Are All Unfinity Cards Legal?
Unfinity is a unique set that shares format legality with most other supplemental releases. This means that only cards printed in sets that were specifically designed as Standard sets are legal in Standard. Cards from other sets, including Unfinity, are not legal in Standard.
Are Unfinity Commander Cards Legal?
Looking on Gatherer, all the Unfinity legendary creatures are legal in Commander. Most of the legendary creatures in the set have an acorn, but if you look on Gatherer, they show as legal.
Why Are Some Magic Cards Illegal?
Some cards are banned because they have proven to simply be too powerful in their respective format. While hundreds of hours are spent rigorously playtesting sets before their release, the complexity of Magic makes it nearly impossible to accurately predict all the ways the new cards interact with older ones.
Conclusion
Unfinity Attractions are a fun and exciting addition to the Magic: The Gathering game. With their unique abilities and unpredictable results, they add a new level of interactivity to the game. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a new player, Unfinity Attractions are sure to bring a smile to your face. So next time you’re playing Magic, be sure to give them a try!
