Magic: The Gathering (MTG) is an incredibly popular trading card game in which players cast spells, battle strategically, and call upon magical creatures and objects on their way to victory. You can play MTG in many different formats, including Commander, Booster, Pioneer, and the Standard version, each of which has distinct rules for the number of players and the cards you can use. No matter which version you’re playing, you’ll use your creativity to create a powerful deck and defeat your opponents.
The main objective of the game is to attack your opponents with creatures and spells until they have no more life points left. Each player in the game is meant to be a powerful being called a planeswalker. However, before casting spells, a player needs to have a mana energy base. You can gain mana by tapping lands or casting specific spells. Of course, there are plenty more rules for gameplay, but we won’t get into all of them here.
Whether you’re just starting out or are a long-time player, having a few accessories around really makes a difference in the gaming experience. With that in mind, we’ve found a variety of magical 3D prints to help you become the most powerful planeswalker in the multiverses.
Spell Book Deck Box
One of the best parts about MTG is that the cards and pieces are capable of transporting you to countless magical universes. While it’s fun to have so many options, it’s easy to get lost in piles of cards you need to organize into deck sets.
Nothing is more appropriate for protecting your spells and keeping them organized than a spell book with a sturdy cover. This box comes in two different sizes, including a small one that holds 75 cards and a large one that holds up to 150 cards. Both sizes can be made without the card and spin template. The hinges are reinforced with a 3D printed pin.

Life Counter
While MTG is known as a fun and exciting game, there are also plenty of rules and counts that can be complex to understand. You’ll need to pay attention to not get confused and be defeated. After all, each point counts, and you can recover and turn the tables even when all seems lost. This life counter gadget will help you keep track without having to take notes. It’s small but practical, with gears that roll the numbers in different directions.
For everything to work correctly, follow the instructions on the model page and pay attention to the timing markings on each part. The lid is composed of three separate parts that snap together. Make one in your favorite color to match your other pieces for a cool theme!

Locking Hex Terrain Stone Path
More than mere boards, these terrain pieces let you build epic scenarios that will make your MTG experience even more magical. The “Arena of the Planeswalkers” is a format heavily based on the heroscape game, which was very popular at the turn of the century and used hex terrain. The original edition of the game only comes with a flat and basic board. Once you experience this arena, it will be challenging to go back.
The themed terrain creates an even more fun and immersive feeling, with many people reporting that they only became interested in the game after seeing the 3D scenarios. There are many purchasable kit options, but they may not always satisfy your needs or ideas. The hexagonal pattern is the smallest unit of terrain, but you can find and make many other combinations to create an epic setting. It all depends on your imagination!
Customizable Commander Tray
Commander is a multiplayer format for three to five players. This game format requires a deck of 100 non-repeating cards with the same mana as the card the player chooses as commander. This is a fun and popular format, but it’s necessary to stay organized to avoid getting lost. Regardless of the number of players, you can customize your commander tray to fit the game.
The creator says the design is printable without supports, and no post-processing is necessary. Another cool thing is that if you can’t fit your dice, you can adapt a one of models. You can also add more counters to include a player. This is an excellent option to put your best and beautiful filament on full display.

Interlocking Drawers
Is your Magic too powerful to be confined to small worlds? If your card collection has grown more than you expected, it might be time to set up a special place to store your cards. These interlocking drawers are a great option for keeping your decks organized and safe from wear and tear.
A modular solution gives you the opportunity to keep everything organized. You can match each drawer to your deck color or print them all in the same color. Drawer options are available with specific mana, terrain, and other symbols, as well as ones without any symbols.

Wheel of Fate
MTG is a game that’s always evolving. The expansion “Guilds of Ravnica” came out in October 2018. This chaotic multiverse is ruled by 10 sociopolitical guild factions, presenting the opportunity for many challenges and epic battles! You’ll find all guilds of Ravnica on this unique spinner, and each guild is represented by two colors.
If you can’t decide which deck to play, leave it up to chance and spin the wheel. To make this design at home, you’ll need some nails, pins, and a small zip tie. The designer says the print should take around 20 hours with 30% infill.

Chips & Counters
Maybe you’re a super-experienced planeswalker and can count everything off the top of your head, but between us, not everyone has that power. Using counters and chips to indicate different card effects will make all the difference while you’re learning, since they make the game easier to understand.
Chips and counters may seem unnecessary if you’ve gotten used to counting in other ways, but it’s a way to easily keep track of everything. These counters are great to make on your home 3D printer because they’re small and simple. Plus, you’ll spend almost nothing on the filament, and you can use any color or style of your choice.

Support Deck
MTG is a card-based game with many cards and expansion packs available. For some formats, more than 100 cards are used per deck. Making a little pile here and there is something that works on the fly, but having proper organizational tools takes you to another level of play. A card tray is always welcome, especially if you’re playing with three or more people.
While fairly simple, this design requires supports. As it’s hollow, the piece doesn’t use much material. There are also subtitles on both sides of the Library and Cemetery. There’s an important note about the scale of the object not being compatible with pocket-type cards. To fit this model, it’s recommended to increase the size by 105% on both the X- and Y-axes.

Sword of Sinew and Steel
This mighty sword can be forged at home to lead you to glory! The sword of Sinew and Steel is based on a card released for the “Modern Horizons” expansion. It has many advantages, such as increasing the equipped creature’s power by +2/+2 and destroying a target creature and artifact.
The template is separated into 14 small parts that you can assemble with the help of some wood pieces, glue, and other materials detailed on the download page. After assembly is complete, the sword will measure about 980 mm from tip to pommel. Go forth and wield this mighty sword in your next battle!

Commander Square Deck Box
If you love playing Commander with friends but have a hard time transporting your cards, this might be the perfect print for you. The designer created this model to be sturdy and durable. It comes with a few extras like spacers and a deck compression spring, allowing you to carry up to 155 cards with a sleeve and 55 tokens without a sleeve. The lid closure is magnetic, and you can make it in up to three colors with multi-extrusion.
One interesting thing is that the spring is designed to be used with cards in both vertical and horizontal orientations. This allows for some flexibility in how you use the internal space while also protecting the cards from wear and tear. To open the lid, simply twist the lid to unlock it. This deck box is suitable for Dragon Shield, KMC, Ultra Pro, and similarly sized sleeves.
