''Jumpstart'' is a new way to play ''Magic'' that mashes together themes from throughout the history of the game and lets you skip the deckbuilding part. Grab two boosters, shuffle them into a 40-card deck, and start playing. The set contains almost 500 [[reprint]]s but also introduces 37 new cards that were designed to help fill out some of the themes. These are not going to be [[Standard]]-, [[Pioneer]]-, or [[Modern]]-[[legal]] cards, but are legal in [[Eternal (format)|Eternal]] formats (Legacy, Vintage, Pauper and Commander). There are no [[foil]] cards in the set. 150 cards are from ''Core Set 2021''<ref name=Say Core">{{DailyRef|making-magic/need-i-say-core-2020-06-08|Need I Say Core|[[Mark Rosewater]]|June 8, 2020}}</ref>, and more than 400 reprints are from sets before ''Core Set 2021''. Cards from [[M21]] have the M21 [[expansion symbol]], while new cards and other reprints will have the ''Jumpstart'' symbol. Reprints have a Post-[[M15]] [[card frame]]. The new cards and cards with new art are numbered #1/78 to #78/78 (40 basic lands, 11 common, 7 uncommon, 14 rare, and 6 mythic rare). The other reprints with the ''Jumpstart'' expansion symbol are numbered #79-495 (186 common, 147 uncommon, 73 rare, 11 mythic rare).

The set introduced a new way to play ''Magic'' that mashes together themes from throughout the history of the game and lets you skip the deckbuilding part. To play a game of Jumpstart, players simply open two boosters and shuffle them together to form a ready-to-play 40-card deck.


The set was designed as a two-player game, but you can also play [[multiplayer]] with it.<ref>{{EzTumblr|https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/611091318754738176/hey-mark-is-jumpstart-more-focused-on-1v1-or-is|title=Is jumpstart more focused on 1v1 or is it also geared towards multiplayer?|February 27, 2020}}</ref>
The set contained 37 new cards, featuring the ''Jumpstart'' [[expansion symbol]], and almost 600 [[reprint]]s. The new cards are not [[Standard]]-, [[Pioneer]]-, or [[Modern]]-[[legal]] but are legal in [[Eternal (format)|Eternal]] formats (Legacy, Vintage, Pauper and Commander). 169 of the reprinted cards are from ''Core Set 2021''<ref name="Say" core"="">{{DailyRef|making-magic/need-i-say-core-2020-06-08|Need I Say Core|[[Mark Rosewater]]|June 8, 2020}}</ref> and feature the M21 expansion symbol, while the remainder (over 400) are reprints from sets before ''Core Set 2021'' and have the ''Jumpstart'' expansion symbol. All cards in the set, including the reprints, have the post-[[M15]] [[card frame]]. The new cards and cards with new art are numbered #1/78 to #78/78 {{curmb|11|7|14|6|40}}. The other reprints with the ''Jumpstart'' expansion symbol are numbered #79-495 {{curmb|186|147|73|11}}. The set contains no [[Foil card|foil cards]].


''Jumpstart'' will be added to [[MTG Arena]] on July 16 [[2020]]<ref name=":0" />[[2020|.]] ''Jumpstart'' cards on [[MTG Arena]] are legal in [[Historic (format)|Historic]]. The way you play ''Jumpstart'' in MTG Arena is expected to be a little different from the paper release.
The set was designed for two-player gameplay, but players can also play [[multiplayer]] with it.<ref>{{EzTumblr|https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/611091318754738176/hey-mark-is-jumpstart-more-focused-on-1v1-or-is|title=Is jumpstart more focused on 1v1 or is it also geared towards multiplayer?|February 27, 2020}}</ref>

''Jumpstart'' is sold in 20-card [[boosters]], and [[booster box]]es contain 24 boosters.<ref>{{EzTumblr|https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/611076588787859456/how-many-packs-in-a-booster-box-of-jumpstart-24|title=how many packs in a booster box of Jumpstart?|February 26, 2020}}</ref> All 20 cards in a booster fit a theme, and most themes are mono-color and have multiple variations of cards included in the pack, totaling 121 different possible pack contents. Special "Mythic Rare" packs don't have variations at all, but just one possible card list and can feature multiple colors. What theme each booster contains is [[random]]ized. Most packs are singletons, but there are some instances of having two copies of a card in the pack. All boosters contain at least one [[rare]], and one in three boosters includes an extra rare. Of the 20 cards in a pack, seven or eight are lands. One [[basic land]] (or in the case of Rainbow, {{card|Terramorphic Expanse||JMP}}) features [[art]] that matches the pack's theme. The planeswalker themed packs use the respective [[Showcase]] lands from [[M21]], but the other packs use brand-new themed land art created for the set. The booster pack is wrapped like a regular pack, but the set of cards is packed in an additional plastic wrap, with a face card (the "Pack Summary card") that indicates the theme and the color of the half-deck.
''Jumpstart'' was primarily sold in 20-card [[boosters]], with 24 boosters per [[booster box]].<ref>{{EzTumblr|https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/611076588787859456/how-many-packs-in-a-booster-box-of-jumpstart-24|title=how many packs in a booster box of Jumpstart?|February 26, 2020}}</ref> The contents of each pack fit one of 46 [[random]]ly-chosen themes, with each theme having a "rarity" of common, rare or mythic rare. Common and rare themes have multiple variations of their pack contents; in total, there are 121 possible pack contents. All boosters contain at least one [[rare]], and one in three boosters includes an extra rare. Within each pack, seven or eight of the 20 cards are lands and the rest are spells; one [[basic land]] in each pack (or in the case of the Rainbow theme, {{card|Terramorphic Expanse||JMP}}) features [[art]] that matches the pack's theme. The planeswalker-themed packs use their respective [[Showcase]] lands from [[M21]], but the other packs use brand-new art created specifically for this set. The booster pack itself is wrapped like a regular pack, but the cards within are packed in an additional plastic wrap, with a face card (the "Pack Summary card") that indicates the pack's theme and color.


''Jumpstart'' is also available in the ''Jumpstart Multipack'', which includes four 20-card booster packs.<ref>{{WebRef|url=https://www.amazon.com/stores/page/D03C8210-1AD1-4F78-BC1D-591D5FD36DF7?ingress=2&visitId=c108b2cc-0411-4bf4-af8c-422efc14f591&ref_=ast_bln|title=Jumpstart|publisher=Amazon.com}}</ref>

Jumpstart Booster pack

Jumpstart is a supplemental Magic booster set with mostly reprints and some new cards. The set is closely tied to Core Set 2021 but is a stand-alone product.[2]

Jumpstart was intended to be released on June 26, 2020, but this was pushed back to July 17 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3][4][5][6] For Europe, the release was further delayed to October 16, 2020.[7]

Set details

Expansion symbol
“  Mix, Match, Mayhem  ”

Jumpstart melds an easy way of deckbuilding with the “shuffle up and play” speed of constructed. In this, it is similar to the Smash Up game by Alderac Entertainment Group and KeyForge by Richard Garfield.

The set introduced a new way to play Magic that mashes together themes from throughout the history of the game and lets you skip the deckbuilding part. To play a game of Jumpstart, players simply open two boosters and shuffle them together to form a ready-to-play 40-card deck.

The set contained 37 new cards, featuring the Jumpstart expansion symbol, and almost 600 reprints. The new cards are not Standard-, Pioneer-, or Modern-legal but are legal in Eternal formats (Legacy, Vintage, Pauper and Commander). 169 of the reprinted cards are from Core Set 2021[8] and feature the M21 expansion symbol, while the remainder (over 400) are reprints from sets before Core Set 2021 and have the Jumpstart expansion symbol. All cards in the set, including the reprints, have the post-M15 card frame. The new cards and cards with new art are numbered #1/78 to #78/78 (11 commons, 7 uncommons, 14 rares, 6 mythic rares, 40 basic lands). The other reprints with the Jumpstart expansion symbol are numbered #79-495 (186 commons, 147 uncommons, 73 rares, 11 mythic rares). The set contains no foil cards.

The set was designed for two-player gameplay, but players can also play multiplayer with it.[9]

Marketing

Jumpstart was primarily sold in 20-card boosters, with 24 boosters per booster box.[10] The contents of each pack fit one of 46 randomly-chosen themes, with each theme having a "rarity" of common, rare or mythic rare. Common and rare themes have multiple variations of their pack contents; in total, there are 121 possible pack contents. All boosters contain at least one rare, and one in three boosters includes an extra rare. Within each pack, seven or eight of the 20 cards are lands and the rest are spells; one basic land in each pack (or in the case of the Rainbow theme, Terramorphic Expanse) features art that matches the pack's theme. The planeswalker-themed packs use their respective Showcase lands from M21, but the other packs use brand-new art created specifically for this set. The booster pack itself is wrapped like a regular pack, but the cards within are packed in an additional plastic wrap, with a face card (the "Pack Summary card") that indicates the pack's theme and color.

Jumpstart was also available in the Jumpstart Multipack, which includes four 20-card booster packs.[11]

The set had an unlimited print run, though it was put on hold during the 2019-2020 coronavirus pandemic. The set is available in English only.

Events

  • Prerelease: July 17-19, 2020
    • Prereleases ran all day. Each player received two Jumpstart boosters to create a deck. When they played enough matches, they earned a promo card.

Promo

Online

Jumpstart was released on MTG Arena on July 16th, 2020. Jumpstart cards on MTG Arena are legal in Historic. Some of the deck contents are slightly different from the paper release.[13] The official physical way to play is to open four packs, and then choose how to pair them and then play with two decks. That process works a little differently on MTG Arena. In addition, the card pool of Jumpstart is slightly different on Arena, due to some cards not working well within the format of a computer game (such as constantly asking players to confirm decisions), concerns for the Historic format, or technical constraints. In total, twenty cards from Jumpstart are excluded from the MTG Arena and replaced with other cards.[14]

In Magic Online, Jumpstart cards became available in Treasure Chests.

Themes and mechanics

There are 46 themes that range from the familiar to the curious. Common themes are each represented four times in different variations among the 121 packs, rare themes twice, and mythic themes are represented only once. The rarity of a given pack should not be taken as an indication of power level; but rather how replayable the theme is.[15] The variant decklists of a given theme always have the same general flavor, mana curve, and game plan.[16] In addition to the Rainbow deck, each color features two mythic themes, three rare themes, and four common themes.

Tokens

Jumpstart comes with neither tokens nor emblems: that said, a number of cards in the set generate tokens, so a list is provided below for reference. (A list of tokens and emblems for cards printed in Core 2021 can be found here.)

^* These tokens do not have paper printings as of the time of release.
^† These tokens do not have paper printings as of the time of release, but they were printed afterwards.

The following tokens are produced by cards exclusive to the digital release of Jumpstart on Arena.

Cycles

Paper and digital exclusives

Twenty cards were excluded from the MTG Arena release as a result of either their perceived power level being too high for Historic at the time, their digital version being too difficult to use (such as requiring multiple repeated choices from players) or their implementation requiring more time than was available.[14] These 20 paper exclusive cards were replaced with 20 alternative cards when Jumpstart was released on Arena, 5 of which were new to Arena.[18][19] Several excluded cards were later introduced to Arena through other expansions.

Misprints

There were several quality issues reported for Jumpstart packs. The most notable was the appearance of cards with two different card faces layered over each other. These "double printed" cards resulted for example in combining 2 different basic lands into accidental dual lands that garnered high prices on the secondary market.[20][21]
