5.0 out of 5 stars Middle-Earth Meets MTG: A Delightful Crossover with a Minor Hiccup
Being an ardent fan of both 'The Lord of the Rings' and 'Magic: The Gathering', I was intrigued when the LOTR MTG Deck Starter Kit was announced. Having spent a good amount of time exploring it, here's my take.Shining Points of the Kit:Faithful Incorporation of LOTR Lore: This kit is a masterpiece in how it weaves the intricate tales and characters of Middle-Earth into the mechanics of MTG. Whether it's the abilities of the One Ring or the might of the Riders of Rohan, every card resonates with authenticity. For fans of Tolkien's universe, each draw feels like diving into a chapter of the epic saga.Value for Money: For the price point, the individual card values are impressive. Not only are they aesthetically pleasing with artwork reminiscent of Tolkien's world, but many also hold substantial gameplay and trade value, making the kit a wise purchase for both collectors and players.A Slight Shadow Over the Shire:While the integration of lore and the card value were spot on, I did find a disparity between the deck strengths. The green and white deck, representing the forces of good in Middle-Earth, felt considerably weaker compared to the menacing might of the black and red deck. It's a small gripe, but it did hinder the gameplay balance a bit. I would've preferred both decks to be on equal footing, ensuring close, nail-biting matches every time.Final Words:The LOTR MTG Deck Starter Kit is an absolute treat for fans of both worlds. It's a beautiful amalgamation of storytelling and strategic gameplay. Though it would've been perfect with slightly more balanced decks, it's still an impressive creation that promises hours of Middle-Earth infused duels. Worth every coin of the Shire!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great value starter kit
This starter kit is the perfect item for a Lord of the Rings fan and someone who is looking to get into MtG. The card quality is great and the art on the cards is fantastic. The set comes with two download codes for the Magic the Gathering Arena PC/Mobile game, so you can share a code with a friend and play together.This set also comes with a robust starter guide, although I learned the basics through the Arena app.Highly recommend for any prospective MtG players who are looking for a cheap entry to the hobby.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great fun
Such a fun deck! Arrived as it should have
4.0 out of 5 stars Starter deck
Awesome starter deck, love LOTR so I may be more biased. However, comparing to other starter decks, this is a lot pricier for just learning MTG. If you’re not a huge fan of LOTR, I wouldn’t bother purchasing this one and go for another that is cheaper as you will quickly outgrow the starter decks.
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for family and friends.
I stopped collecting magic cards, however wanted a 2 player starter kit to occasionally play that would also entice friends and family or might not understand the rules. The Lord of the Rings set is perfect as its a fantasy IP that everyone is familiar with.CONS: Ultra Pro deck sleeves won't fit in the deck boxes provided, so either have loose sleeved cards or boxed un-sleeved cards. Unfortunately, the deck boxes are about 1-2mm too small for protector sleeves so I think thats either a design or marketing flaw.On Bolo, its £3 more expensive than buying it in the local gaming store, that surprised me!The lands are basic lands, I was hoping for the LOTR themed lands, that's a pity, not a big deal.PROS: Two codes for MTG Arena, gives the ability to play online and invite a friend to play online !Nice presentation and cool deck boxes.Great for new players unfamiliar with MTG.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great condition
This set booster box arrived in great condition, it wasn't open, it had the official wizards of the coast wrapping on it. The boosters themselves had not been resealed. Overall i was really happy with the condition it came in. The cards themselves, artwork is amazing. Did i get my monetary value out of it? No, i didn't, however its 1 of those risks you take. If i put that aside, i enjoyed opening this set, With it being Lord of the rings too. For me personally, i probably wouldn't buy the set booster box again, however i'm keen to see what the collector booster box is like!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great product, but not for the light-hearted 😅
Got this to play with my friend who's a big LOTR fan but to say we were overwhelmed is an understatement 🤣This comes with a rulebook but unfortunately it's missing a few of the rules and descriptions for card text, instead giving a link to the Magic website which wasn't ideal for our first time playing the gameThe art and overall quality of the product is fantastic but I'd definitely recommend during some research into Magic to see if it's for you rather than diving straight into the game like we did 😅
5.0 out of 5 stars 👍

Great Precon
Great precon at a good price. Love the way this deck runs, it’s a lot of fun to play. The icing on the cake is I pulled a One Ring from the promo pack that’s included.
Joli et bien emballé
