Wizards of the Coast will equalize its release schedule for Magic: The Gathering by introducing an equal number of Universes Beyond and traditional sets. This shift sparked worries about the potential slowdown of creative content, but the upcoming Aetherdrift set aims to dispel those fears. Aetherdrift, releasing on February 14, focuses on the Ghirapur Grand Prix - a multi-planar race involving diverse teams like the artifact-relying Guidelight Voyagers, the reckless Speed Demons, the apocalyptic Endriders, and the inventive Goblin Rocketeers, showcasing a rich tapestry of stories and characters within Magic's expansive lore.
Aetherdrift tells the story of the Ghirapur Grand Prix, a multi-planar combat stage race, showcasing diverse teams with unique backstories and strategies.
The Guidelight Voyagers are an accidental participant, relying on artifact creatures, while the Speed Demons, led by Winter, serve the moth demon Valgavoth.
The Endriders come from a Mad Max-style world, seeking to restore water, whereas Goblin Rocketeers are likened to test pilots with an obsession for speed.
Wizards of the Coast's announcement of balancing traditional Magic sets with Universes Beyond has raised questions, but Aetherdrift aims to maintain creative momentum.
