D&D 5E Which Magic the Gathering setting would you want added officially to D&D?

Zendikar, Innistrad, Amonkhet, Kaladesh, Ixalan and Dominaria.

IMHO Zendikar & Innistrad are super evocative. Kaladesh & Dominaria not so much. Ixalan looks intriguing, but I don‘t have it. Amonkhet seems like it would be similar to Kaladesh (i.e, city focused)

Also Ravnica, and an all-Magic anniversary book. It seems they aren't doing any more with the 3+1 card release model, though, with blocks being retired.

To answer the OP. None. However, if I had to pick one setting it would be the vampire one, Innistrad? I'd like to see Ravenloft and that would at least come close.

Of those that are out, I have the Zendikar and Dominaria art books. Both are pretty cool with amazing art. Zendikar feels like a points of light setting, the wilderness is dangerous and ever changing due to the roil which makes permanent settlements few and far between. Dominaria feels like more of a classic setting with demon cults, noble nights, wizard academies and ancient elven forests. It also has a long history since it was the original setting, I'd be tempted to look through earlier mtg sets for ideas on items and setting locations.

DOMINARIA. Because Urza and Mishra are cool (and Antiquities was my favorite set early on).

Aladdin always had a place in my heart, so Arabian Nights was my favorite early set. There was nothing like hitting Shahrazad with a Fork and watching the opponent scoop.

I think they call that setting the Infinite Planes of Rabiah now. It's among the least likely MtG planes to get even a mention.

Anyways, I like that Eldraine is the the MtG Disney Setting, but it needs somekind of connect point to the Infinite Planes of Rabiah.

Here's the big ol' risky answer:

Kamigawa. Yes, I am more than aware its basically one of the worst selling sets, but it pulled off "Fantasy Japan" roughly about a million times better than Oriental Adventures ever did

In current times in MtG, when a mage summons a creature, they are actually summoning a duplicate of them from the Aether, as I understand it.

So can the Gatewatch just summon a dupilcate of Gideon?

I mean they act like he is permenantly gone, but he can in a sense be summoned.

It does suggest a Neoplatonic element to MtG where someone highest self isn't in their embodiment, but in the ideal form if themselves which is immortal.

To be fair OA explored a lot more then just Japan.

And OA wasn't a failure, so perhaps it isn't worse the Kamigawa.
