The game, simply called Magic: The Gathering, was set on Shandalar and was, for a time, the only peek into that world. To the oldest of old-school gamers, Shandalar evokes the first Magic computer game, one published by MicroProse in 1997.
Now the inhabitants of this unusual plane must combat the growing hive mind of the slivers, an ever-evolving race that threatens to consume their world. It was once home to the Onakke, an ogre civilization adept at using the plane's abundant mana to craft artifacts of terrible power. Abnormally mana-rich, Shandalar is a place where magic flows freely, from the wilds of Kalonia and the kingdom of Thune to the shadows of Xathrid, the peak of Valkas, and the remote Evos Isle. Unlike other planes, Shandalar does not have a fixed location in the Multiverse: it forever drifts through the Blind Eternities, the space between the planes. Here's what the M15 Player's Guide has to say about Shandalar: All five of the planes that have highlighted Magic's universe over the past several years make an appearance.
There's Theros, Ravnica, Innistrad, Zendikar, and even New Phyrexia.
Magic 2015 is something of a greatest hits compilation of planes recently visited.
