What Cycles Teach us About Design

Cycles are everywhere in Magic: the Gathering, that is if you know where to look. I have spent the last few weeks digging into countless cycles, poured over mtg articles and interviews with Mafic: the Gathering Developers to bring you a comprehensive look at one of MTG's greatest design tools.
What I found was far more than anything I ever expected. You see MTG Cycles aren't merely an arbitrary set of five cards; rather they are a physical expression of the Magic the Gathering color pie, tools for defining factions, a method for guiding players, integral to weaving larger narratives, and part of Magic's greater Aesthetic. If that sound like a lot, that is because it is, and the deeper I got into the research the more I found out how important Cycles are to Magic: the Gathering
