Tempest - MTG (Magic: The Gathering)

Released in October 1997, Tempest MTG is a cornerstone set in Magic: The Gathering history. As the first expansion in the Tempest block and a major chapter in the Weatherlight Saga, it introduced a massive MTG Tempest card list of 350 unique cards. The set blended intense lore with powerful gameplay mechanics, bringing in key innovations like buyback, shadow, and licids—plus unforgettable characters like Volrath, Crovax, and the Weatherlight crew.

Tempest MTG includes some of the most iconic cards of the ’90s, such as Wasteland, Scroll Rack, Earthcraft, and Intuition—many of which remain staples in Legacy and Commander formats today. With its high-impact spells, creative design, and deep narrative, Tempest has stood the test of time.

Whether you’re a longtime fan or a new collector exploring vintage sets, Tempest offers real value. If you’re looking to sell Magic cards, Tempest singles and rares can still command strong prices, especially in good condition. And if you’re organizing your collection or planning to sell comic book items from the same era, bundling Tempest cards can make your offer even more appealing to collectors.
