Designing Magic: the Gathering sets has always been something that has fascinated me, as there is so many considerations that go into every part of a card and of the set as a whole. But there has been this shift as of late that I have noticed, a difference in design philosophy in recent years. You see there are two core patterns for crafting a set, and those are top-down and bottom-up design. Or flavor first versus mechanics first, and in the last few years Magic has leaned more into top-down then it ever has in its history, but why is that? It's a question I had to get to the bottom of, but I knew that before I could come to conclusion I should first have a better understanding these concepts, and really that's why I put this video together. As a way to not just uncover the complexities of these design principles, fascinating as they are, but to apply what I have learned to answer the very question that set me on this quest. In this video I will take you through what I have learned, of the surprises and depths of design, in hopes that together we can come to a conclusion. So join me as we talk the principles of top-down versus bottom-up design in Magic: the Gathering.
