Information

RulesGuru offers a broad selection of courses for learning Magic's rules, covering all experience levels.

The introductory courses cover the core gameplay. If you've never played Magic before, you can start here and learn the basics. Most players will never need to know anything past these courses.

For those looking to gain deeper knowledge of the rules, the intermediate courses go over the underlying concepts and mechanics that make the game work. They're ideal for someone who's trying to become a judge, or a competitive player who wants to make sure they have every strategical edge covered.

The advanced courses dive into the rules from a technical, philosophical, and algorithmic perspective. You'll learn exactly how they work, step-by-step processes to figure out what happens in any given game state no matter how complicated, and some of the design principles behind why they were written that way.
