Strixhaven Release Notes Reveal Fresh Mechanics and Rules Clarifications
Magic: The Gathering’s Secrets of Strixhaven release notes lay out new mechanics (Prepare, Increment, Paradigm, Infusion, Opus, Repartee), returning rules like Flashback and Converge, plus extensive card-specific rulings. The document also covers Mystical Archive and Special Guests cards, format legality across Standard, Pioneer, Modern, Commander, and other formats, and clarifications on how these new concepts interact in gameplay (e.g., how prepared spells exile and copy, how counters and infusion work, and how paradigm creates recurring effects). It notes that rules may update as future sets release and provides pointers to official rules resources.
