When is Prime Day?

Prime Day is running from July 11-12. It’ll be an interesting mix of deals directly from the top at Wizards, and a lot – we can’t emphasize that enough – of deals for accessories.

Magic: The Gathering deals for Prime Day: Standard, Modern, Limited & more

As we expect with Dungeons & Dragons, Wizards will presumably put a lot of the entry-level products or older sets on discounts.

Magic Prime Day Commander deals

Our top recommendations will be anything Dragon Shield, offering sturdy sleeves, but a great play feel. Outside of this, we’ll be on the hunt for things like great dice bundles and things to help you out for those long Commander sessions.
