What is modern Magic: The Gathering (MTG)?
Modern is all about strategy and building a deck with a mix of old and new cards, but without the cards that are too powerful (hence, banned). It keeps the game fresh and balanced. Players love it because it's challenging and allows for tons of creative deck-building.

Modern Magic (MTG) is a super cool format that lets you use cards from all the sets that have been released since 2003's Eighth Edition up to the latest releases, excluding some that are on a special banned list. It's like time traveling through MTG's history but with a competitive twist!
Honestly, just think of Modern as MTG's way of letting players dive into a massive pool of cards for deck building, but with floaties on (the ban list) to keep things fair.
It's just constructed play with cards from 2003 onwards. Simple.
