March of the Machine: the Aftermath is a non-draftable Magic micro set that was released on May 12, 2023.[3][4][5][6][7]

Set details

“  Rebuild the Multiverse while building up your collection  ”

Aftermath was a rare fifth premier set in the Standard environment, but it is also a "new kind of thing" and "not a normal expansion".[8][9][10] It is a micro set of 50 cards following up on March of the Machine, and was released both in tabletop and digital.[11][5][12] From a product standpoint, it is considered an extension of March of the Machine.[13]

Aftermath contains 50 regular cards (15 uncommons, 25 rares, 10 mythic rares), and 180 alternate versions of those same cards.[14] Different showcase-style cards are #51-100, #101-150 are etched foil, #151-185 are extended art (No Uncommons) and #186-228 are halo foil (skipping the retro frame cards), #229 is the Bundle promo, while #230 is the Buy-a-Box card.

Storyline

What is left when the dust settles after the epic four-part Phyrexian story arc? The very fabric of the Multiverse has fundamentally changed: many planeswalkers have lost their spark and omenpaths have now become the main way to travel between planes.[15] Aftermath serves as an epilogue, tying up some loose ends and starting new beginnings.

Although marketed as a story focused micro set, there were no Story Spotlight cards in Aftermath.[16] Many cards also lacked flavor text, and the set was only accompanied by two story articles. This left a lot of storylines unexplained.

MTG Arena

March of the Machine: The Aftermath replaced the Alchemy set release for March of the Machine. It is available in store boosters per regular set releases and in a limited-time draft format.[19] Draft boosters contained one Aftermath card and one Multiverse Legends card with the rest being March of the Machine cards.[20]

Tokens and emblems

Aftermath did not feature any tokens using its own set code or expansion symbol but boosters included selected tokens and emblems from March of the Machine, March of the Machine Commander and Multiverse Legends.[21] A number of cards in the set generate tokens, so a list is provided below for reference.

  1. {C} 1/1 Thopter artifact creature with flying for Pia Nalaar, Consul of Revival.
  2. {C} Food artifact for Rocco, Street Chef.
  3. Copy, for Calix, Guided by Fate, Narset, Enlightened Exile, Nashi, Moon’s Legacy and Rebuild the City.

Themes and mechanics

The cracked planeswalker symbol

"Legendary matters": Aftermath features several planeswalkers as desparked legendary creatures. These cards feature a cracked planeswalker symbol as a watermark. There is also an Aura that enchants Legendary Creatures (Leyline Immersion)

Several returning mechanics appear as one-offs: Constellation, Convoke, Jump-start, Landfall, Madness, and Undergrowth.

Reprinted cards

Misprint

  • The halo foil version of Deification says "all of its loyalty counters", instead of "all loyalty counters on it".

Reception

A massive leak spoiled all the cards of the set.[22] The small size of the set, the lack of cohesive storytelling and the price / quality ratio of the Epilogue Boosters caused Aftermath to have an unfavorable reception[23] and probably lackluster revenues. Another Epilogue set like Aftermath is therefore unlikely.[24]

Wizards of the Coast does market research on all their sets. They often ask players to rank a set on a scale, and then look at the top-two-box score, meaning how many people rated this with one of the top two ratings. It's a common metric used in data research. March of the Machine: The Aftermath had the lowest top-two-box score for a randomized booster product they ever had.[25][26]

The poor reception caused Wizards to cancel an already designed epilogue set for Outlaws of Thunder Junction and restructure the way Beyond Boosters were designed for Universes Beyond: Fallout.[27]

Notes

  1. ↑ The official digital release for Aftermath was May 11th but the set became available for purchase on Arena on May 9th. This was due to the smaller set size resulting in far fewer bugs and checks than normal.[18]
