About

Stronghold, released in 1998, is the third set in the Mirage block of Magic: the Gathering, set in the vibrant and diverse world of Jamuraa. The lore centers around the conflict between the forces of the Cabal, a dark and sinister organization seeking to dominate the land, and the defenders of the Stronghold, a fortress that symbolizes hope and resilience. This set introduces several mechanics that reflect the themes of conflict and strategy, including Shadow, a mechanic that allows creatures to block or be blocked only by other creatures with Shadow, creating a unique tactical layer to gameplay. Additionally, Buyback allows players to return spells to their hand after casting them, emphasizing the importance of resource management and strategic planning in the face of adversity. Through its rich storytelling and innovative mechanics, Stronghold captures the essence of struggle and perseverance in a world on the brink of chaos.
