How do I into the MtG storyline?
>>51808256
Don't.
Down that road is only anger and disappointment.

Everything you need is on the Wizards website. Just read through the short stories they post. If you want a TLDR of the story then play Duels of the Planeswalkers.

I mean the entire story, from Alpha on.
Newfag approach - read the articles on DailyMTG and moan about how terrible they are.
Newfag that wants to pretend to be an oldfag for credibility approach - read the articles on DailyMTG, then read a couple MTGSalvation articles about the older characters like Urza or Gerrard, then moan about how terrible the lore is nowadays and how much better things used to be back when you played.
Oldfag approach - actually read the older material along with the new and realize that it's all garbage and has always been garbage with the exception of three or four books.

>The entire story, from alpha on.
Don't. Pre-mending and post-mending are almost entirely unrelated; if you intend to follow the story going forward, don't bother with alpha through mending.

Magic's creative department might be great at crafting compelling worlds, but it's writing team is has all-around highschooler levels of writing incompetence.
Except for Ken Troop, the hero we need.
>>51808256
Avoid it if you can.

Hey, Wedge might have the shittiest looking "groomed" beard known to man, but at least it's not a literal neckbeard. Everything else is true baka desu senpai.

FUCK LITERALLY EVERYTHING EVERYONE IN THIS THREAD HAS TOLD YOU.
GO READ THE THRAWN, AND THEN THE WEATHERLIGHT SAGA, AND EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT URZA. DO IT BECAUSE THOSE BOOKS WERE GOOD AND KNOWING THAT WILL HELP YOU HATE MODERN MTG MORE
>>51808256
You're a few years too later for that.
Modern MtG storyline is shit. Don't bother.

Pick up the old novels and read them. The weathering HT crew was interesting, as was Urza.
Eventually they stopped doing the novels of course, and the quality has gone downhill post mending.
Just read Uncharted Realms. Especially those on Tarkir (Abzan 4ever <3)
