What it does
3-6 players | 3-6 packs | 15 minutes
OBJECTIVE:
Some cards are strong in Standard, others shine in Draft, but which card looks the tastiest? Take turns being the Judge and decide which Magic card is the best of the best in each wacky category.
GET READY:
Randomly determine who will be the first Judge. Each player then opens a pack, removes any cards without Magic backs, and looks at their cards.
LET'S PLAY:
The Judge chooses a category from the list on the back of this card (either their favorite or at random). The other players each secretly submit a card from their pack that they think fits the category.
When the Judge has collected all the cards, they reveal each card, read it aloud, then choose the winner.
The Judge role then passes to the next player, and they select a different category.

Where it came from
Strictly Better was released as part of the Zendikar Rising Minigames, a collection of promotional playtest-style cards distributed to select community members and influencers in 2020. The card was designed to highlight the game's mechanics through humor, featuring a self-referential design that mocks the common Magic: The Gathering parlance of describing cards as strictly better or worse than others.
The card's design and playful layout were intended to mirror the aesthetic of internal development playtest cards, utilizing a minimalist, text-focused approach. Because it was never intended for standard tournament play, it was received primarily as a curiosity and a sought-after collectible for fans of the game's meta-humor and its unique, lighthearted promotional history.
