Magic: The Gathering was developed by award-winning game designer and mathematician Richard Garfield. In this intense trading card game of strategy, players battle to reduce each other's score from 20 to 0 through a series of attack and defense moves--using cards with varying numerical values. These illustrated cards depict fantastic monsters and imaginative worlds.
With an estimated fan base of more than 6 million players, Magic is played in social and competitive settings, including the prestigious $1 million Magic: The Gathering Pro Tour circuit. Played in more than 52 countries worldwide, Magic is supported by the DCI players' organization, the governing authority for all officially sanctioned Magic tournaments. Helping both amateur and professional Magic players track their rankings, the DCI currently sanctions more than 60,000 Magic tournaments around the world per year.
Magic: The Gathering is published by Wizards of the Coast, a leading developer and publisher of entertainment products. Wizards of the Coast subsidiaries include TSR, Inc., and Five Rings Publishing Group, Inc. Headquartered just outside Seattle, Wizards of the Coast has international offices in Antwerp, Paris, Milan, London, Tokyo, and Beijing.
