Is Magic: The Gathering still Magic… or just a vehicle for brand crossovers?

In this episode of the show, the team at The Lotus Archives unpacks the explosive rise of Universes Beyond, and what it means for the soul of MTG. From Fallout to Final Fantasy, these crossovers are reshaping the game in wild ways. Are they expanding the multiverse... or diluting its identity?

We explore the hype, the backlash, and the big-picture implications for Commander, Standard, and beyond. Whether you love the synergy or fear the synergy creep, this is a conversation every spell-slinger should hear.

🧙‍♂️ Comment below: Are these crossovers adding spice, or spoiling the recipe?
