Weatherlight - MTG (Magic: The Gathering)

Released in June 1997, MTG Weatherlight is a landmark set that kicked off the legendary Weatherlight Saga—Magic: The Gathering’s first true story arc. As the first set in the Tempest block, it introduced players to a cast of iconic characters like Gerrard, Sisay, and Tahngarth, laying the foundation for years of interconnected lore across the multiverse.

With 167 cards, Weatherlight delivered both flavorful storytelling and competitive gameplay. Standout cards such as Lotus Vale, Cursed Scroll, and Gerrard’s Wisdom became staples in various formats. The set expanded on buyback mechanics and brought new focus to graveyard strategies and artifact synergies, making it a key part of Magic’s design evolution.

Today, MTG Weatherlight holds strong appeal for collectors and players alike. Whether you’re revisiting the saga or rediscovering underrated gems, this set offers a unique blend of nostalgia and utility.

If you’re planning to sell Magic cards, Weatherlight singles—especially rares and playable uncommons—still hold market value among vintage players and Commander enthusiasts. And for collectors bundling memorabilia, these cards make a great addition when you also sell comic book collections or other retro gaming items from the ’90s era.
