Urza's Block

The Urza’s block, made up of Urza’s Saga (released October 12, 1998), Urza’s Legacy (February 15, 1999), and Urza’s Destiny (June 7, 1999), is one of the most powerful and impactful in Magic history. Known for its artifact synergies and explosive combos, the block introduced mechanics like Cycling, Echo, Sleep, and Free Spells (cards that untap lands when cast), pushing design boundaries and leading to multiple bannings. Urza’s Saga kicked things off with powerful enchantments and combo tools, Urza’s Legacy brought the first foil cards and even more efficient artifacts, and Urza’s Destiny continued the trend with mana engines and recursion effects. Notable cards across the block include Tolarian Academy, Yawgmoth’s Will, Time Spiral, Goblin Welder, Replenish, and Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary. The Urza’s block remains infamous for its broken power level and lasting legacy in eternal formats.
