What is Frontier?


Over the past couple months, the Magic community has been ablaze with talk about a new format: Frontier! Falling in between Modern and Standard, Frontier is being billed as a cheap and accessible non-rotating format perfect for players that have recently started playing Magic and are looking for a place to make more use of their Standard cards (and recently rotated Standard cards). Today we are going to take a few minutes to break down Magic's newest format and answer the what, why, and how of Frontier in video form! Then, if you want more information on the format, make sure to head over to the new Frontier Metagame page and check out some decks! 

Don't forget: if you enjoy the series (and haven't already), make sure to subscribe to the MTGGoldfish YouTube Channel!
