Starter Kit

Really pleased with the set, as a complete beginner and LOTR fan I was so pleased to find this set. 1st class seller will be buying from them again.

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.

This was my first foray into Magic the Gathering (MTG). A lot of MTG fans don’t love the Lord of the Rings edition. However as a huge Tolkien fan, I love this game. The artwork is beautiful and notably a bit different to other LOTR artwork. It is kind of easy to play but I had to look up a lot online to make it easier. This pack is great as it has two ready made decks that are good to go.

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.

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!

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 amazon, 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.

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 game The 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 😅

Good for playing magic with

Beau starter kit. Bien emballé et jeu plaisant. Les cartes étaient bien protégées.

Thankyou. Item as described. Easy postage.

If you are a Lord of the Rings and MTG fan, you cannot miss out on this amazing product. It blends the best of both worlds and makes you feel like you’re battling alongside the heroes of Middle Earth. Act quickly because this edition of MGT will not be on sale forever. It was only on store shelves for a few weeks and now you can only get these on Amazon. Act quickly before prices go up any further. Definitely a great collector or player item.

Great!

Als Fan beider Universen war ich total gespannt auf dieses Crossover-Einsteigerpaket - und wurde absolut nicht enttäuscht! Die Verschmelzung von Magic: The Gathering mit der Welt von Mittelerde ist einfach genial umgesetzt. Das Starter-Set ist perfekt zusammengestellt: Die vorgefertigten Decks sind sehr gut ausbalanciert und ermöglichen direkt spannende Duelle. Die Artworks sind einfach atemberaubend - jede Karte ist ein kleines Kunstwerk, das die Atmosphäre von Herr der Ringe wunderbar einfängt Für Neueinsteiger ist es der perfekte Start in Magic, und für erfahrene Spieler eine fantastische Ergänzung ihrer Sammlung. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist top, zumal man zwei komplette Decks erhält. Fazit: Ein Must-Have für Fans beider Welten und der ideale Einstieg in Magic: The Gathering. Die Kombination aus beiden Universen macht einfach riesigen Spaß!
