Magic: The Gathering (MTG) Visions Cards

Released in February 1997, Visions is the second set in the Mirage block and a direct continuation of the story and mechanics introduced in Mirage. With 167 cards, Visions built on the African-inspired plane of Jamuraa, further developing its political intrigue, magical conflicts, and unique flavor. Though smaller than Mirage, Visions delivered impactful gameplay and strong additions to constructed formats.

Visions refined and expanded several popular mechanics, including Phasing and Flanking, and introduced powerful multi-color strategies through cards like Fireblast, Man-o’-War, and Natural Order. It also contained a cycle of “slow fetch lands” that synergized with basic land types—cards that still attract interest from Commander and Eternal format players today.

While it may not have the legendary power level of later expansions, Visions remains a cult favorite. Cards like Impulse, City of Solitude, and Scroll Rack are beloved for their utility and design. The set also contributed significantly to early Magic’s identity, blending rich world-building with practical tournament play.

For collectors, Visions is a hidden gem. Whether you’re looking to sell Magic cards, complete a Mirage block set, or bundle vintage items with a sell comic book collection, Visions cards offer nostalgic appeal and lasting value.
