Classic Edition

The Classic Edition of Magic Chess was the first test version of the game. It contained only 21 cards, causing decks to consistently run out. All of the Classic Edition is contained in partOne, except for Women's March. The Classic Edition contained cards that varied highly in strength and viability, with some cards game-breakingly strong (like Twister) and some entirely useless (like Release the Drone). While many cards made it into the final version without many changes, most of the cards from the Classic Edition were tweaked anywhere from mildly to severely.

Origin
In the Winter of 2018, Magic Chess was originally thought up by Ryan, though the game immediately took off among the Fellowship. Coming up with ideas was completely natural, and every possible inside joke was given a card. The game's development was complicated by the desire of Marty to make the game very strategic, clashing with the desire of Owen to make the game as ridiculous and wild as possible. Although Ryan saw value in each, Owen's creation of the Classic Edition proved to trump Marty's aspirations, and at least temporarily, the game became a shitshow.
