D&D 5E Which MTG Setting would you want as an official D&D Setting (updated post-Strixhaven)?

[Urriak Uruk]

Hello! I thought I'd make a new version of this poll, because Strixhaven has been announced and it looks likely that MTG settings are definitely an ongoing trend.

I haven't included every MTG setting here because there are many, but I included rank 5 or better on the Rabiah scale. I also know some of these have a Planeshift article, but I don't think that would stop an official book release, especially as it would likely be paired with a new card set that updates the plane somewhat.

Rabiah Scale

The Rabiah Scale is a ranking of the likelihood that a given plane will be revisited as the setting of a future Standard-legal set. Planes are ranked from 1 (very likely) to 10 (very unlikely). As one of the Rosewater Scales, the Rabiah Scale is analogous to the Storm Scale for mechanics. The...

Ixalan.

I want Ixalan.

I voted Ikoria, just because it would be interesting to have stat blocks for the mutating monsters of the plane.

 

[Professor Murder]

New Phyrexia. It would be something wholly new and different.

I mentioned Lorwyn-Shadowmoor being my forever pick in the other topic.

But I’d certainly pick up anything based on Alara, Zendikar or Mirrodin/Phyrexia. And Eldraine basically writes itself so might as well throw it in there.

Innistrad and Eldraine are good options. I wouldn't dismiss Kaldheim.

I suggest after Kamiwaga: Neon Dinasty a new setting based in cultures and folklore from Far East, but not only with Japanese influences but also from China, Korea and other nations as source of inspiration. We would a lot of work about the different markets from Asia have got special points of view about themself and their neighbours and we don't troubles because somebody said anything unpolite without noticing.

I wonder about a new crossover with D&D, this time Greyhawk or Dragonlance. Jakandor is almost totally forgotten or unknown but this is the reasy to do it because the risks are lesser.

Khaladesh.

After that I’d put Zendikar, Eldraine, and then lots of others.

But above all those, I want a Gatewatch’s Guide To The Planes, with info on a bunch of worlds, and worldbuilding tips, tables, etc,

Kamigawa !
I really love Ixalan but the Art of Magic book is good enough that i don't really need an official 5e book to play in the setting.

The story of Kamiwaga was more like a "one-shot", too small when a true setting should be like a sandbox.

Ilkoria has got a lot of "kaijus" or gargatuan monsters perfect for some crossover with a no-D&D franchise (dinobots, dino power rangers, Ultraman)... but it is not the best setting for low level PCs. Maybe if there is a module of optional rules about tamed monster pets then the things would be different.

Innistrad is the best option for the no-MtG fandom. It allows a lot of open space to add elements when Ravenloft is too "small", for example fights among supernatural factions (vampire clans, theriantropes tribes, dark fae courts, witch covents, wraith guilds, monster-hunter brotherhoods...)

About Ixalan my opinion is the morrion is a fashion accesory too cool and fabulous to be only wore by the bad guys. I reclaim a positive discrimination quota of morrion-wearers in the band of the good and nice characters.

I picked possibly the most boring option (other than no more MTG settings) and went with Dominaria. Probably due to it being the original location for MtG and because I have the art book for it which, really speaking, probably gives me enough info to run a game there in the latest age of the setting.
