Overview
Puzzle Masters is the 28th expansion set of Magic: The Gathering - Puzzle Quest, added in January 2021 in version 4.7 of the game. The set abbreviation is PMA, and the set icon () consists of the set abbreviation in the MtGPQ font.
Like Origins, Puzzle Masters will remain permanently in Standard.
Puzzle Masters is not a main-line card set, and therefore does not impact the rotation of card sets out of Standard format. PMA does not have a corresponding Magic: the Gathering card set release. Its cards are taken from several MtG card sets.
PMA cards were at first introduced gradually. Initially, one color was released at a time, along with a new Planeswalker of that color, starting with red and Chandra, Ignited in January 2021, and then black with Liliana, Master of Death in October of the same year.
Blue packs and Teferi, Chronoclast, White packs and Ajani, Invigorate Leadership, Green packs and Nissa, Vital Energy were added in rapid succession in January 2022. In February, 45 new cards were added to the packs, doubling the size of the set. In May, a colorless pack, and in June, Karn, Reflective Silver. A proposal to merge the packs into one was cancelled, presumably due to player disapproval.
Most PMA cards are themed around their color's corresponding Planeswalker and sold in that Planeswalker's "Signature Spellbook" pack. The same five Colorless cards are now included in all PMA Planeswalkers' packs, and one colorless unique to that color pack.
Colors of Magic is a Standard PvP event released at the same time as PMA. Rewards for CoM at one time included Chandra Anthology packs; similar to the Chandra PMA group of cards, the cards in the Anthology packs were related to Chandra and her story. The reward, as of August 2022, is a single PMA card from the PMA set; these normally cost 250 crystals, and no other crystal rewards in any other event are as high as 250.
