Un méga-méga-cycle est un cycle paru sur un nombre d'éditions plus large (au-delà d'un même bloc) qu'un méga-cycle, lui-même paru sur un nombre d'éditions plus large (mais au sein d'un même bloc) qu'un simple cycle. Étant donné le nombre conséquent de méga-cycles, ils sont décrits et classés dans cette rubrique comme de simples cycles.

• Only Murders That We're Building, Part 1 (Jan 29, 2024 - Archdruid's Charm - "[...] Inspired by my success with the Atog s but thinking bigger, I came up with an idea that I called the "mega-mega cycle." We would print a card from a cycle once each block [...] I should note that not all mega-mega cycles start as cycles. Sometimes we make a card, or two, and then later get inspired to make more.")

La carte Who's That Praetor? rassemble chacun des Praetors Phyrexians apparus pour la première fois dans l'édition New Phyrexia (voir cette anecdote) et réapparus en transplanant au fil des éditions précédant les événements de l'édition March of the Machine, sous les traits des cinq cartes Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines, Jin-Gitaxias, Progress Tyrant, Sheoldred, the Apocalypse, Urabrask, Heretic Praetor et Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider qui forment un méga-méga-cycle avec des parutions étalées sur plusieurs éditions de l'"Arc Phyrexian".
Le nom de la carte fait référence à "Who's That Pokémon?" de la série TV animée Pokémon (une version en ligne du jeu est disponible) et joue sur le fait qu'Ebon Praetor est le premier Praetor non-Phyrexian.
La carte située derrière l'illustration de Who's That Praetor? est All Is Dust (édition Ultimate Masters).
Cette carte a été imprimée pour la première fois lors du "Unknown Event" à la MagicCon: Philadelphia 2023.

La carte Archdruid's Charm est une référence à Archmage's Charm de par son nom, son coût de mana et le fait de présenter trois effets modaux. Peut-être le début d'un méga-méga-cycle de charmes...

Les deux cartes Sword of Truth and Justice et Sword of Sinew and Steel sont le début d'un méga-méga-cycle d'épées associées aux couleurs alliées, en référence au méga-méga-cycle d'épées associées aux couleurs ennemies (voir cette anecdote).
Tout comme le précédent méga-méga-cycle, les parutions des différentes épées seront étalées sur plusieurs années en commençant avec l'édition Modern Horizons, puis en continuant avec l'édition Modern Horizons II pour Sword of Hearth and Home, l'édition Phyrexia: All Will Be One pour Sword of Forge and Frontier et enfin l'édition March of the Machine pour Sword of Once and Future.

La carte Phyrexian Vindicator est une référence à Phyrexian Obliterator de par son nom, son coût de quatre manas colorés, ses types de créature, ses force et endurance, sa capacité déclenchée comparable et enfin son texte d'ambiance.
Ces deux cartes ont été rejointes par Phyrexian Harvester, ce qui laisse présager un méga-méga-cycle de créatures dont une n'existe pas (encore ?) en carte physique.

Les cinq cartes Kodama of the North Tree, Kodama of the South Tree, Kodama of the Center Tree, Kodama of the East Tree et Kodama of the West Tree forment un méga-méga-cycle appelé "Kodama" de créatures esprits légendaires.
Un "kodama" (littéralement "esprit de l'arbre") est un type de "yokai" ("esprit", "fantôme", "démon", "apparition étrange") du folklore japonais. Il s'agit d'un esprit vivant dans un arbre.

Les cartes Trinket Mage, Tribute Mage, Trophy Mage, Transit Mage et Treasure Mage forment un méga-méga-cycle d'humains et sorciers appelé "T- Mage", chacun appartenant à une édition différente. Ces cartes coûtent trois manas dont un coloré et permettent de chercher dans la bibliothèque une carte d'artefact avec une valeur de mana dans une plage spécifique.
Source 1 (Micromancer (Dominaria United) - "Trinket Mage was so popular that it spawned two different design paths. The first of these are what I'll call the "T Mages," which tutor for artifacts of a specific mana value range. Trinket Mage gets mana value 1 or less, Tribute Mage gets 2, Trophy Mage gets 3, and Treasure Mage gets 6 or more—yes, that means we haven't finished this cycle yet. [...]")

Tribute Mage
This is another card that's trying to help complete a cycle.
It started back in Fifth Dawn with the card Trinket Mage . Fifth Dawn had a "cog" theme focusing on artifacts that cost zero or one. Trinket Mage was designed as a creature that tutored (got a card from your library into your hand) for cogs.
In Mirrodin Besieged, we made a mirror of Trinket Mage with Treasure Mage , a creature that tutored only for expensive artifacts (ones costing six or more).
Aether Revolt started filling in the middle with Trophy Mage which tutored for artifacts costing exactly three mana.
Modern Horizons fills in the two slot, leaving two cards remaining: one that gets converted mana cost 4 and one that gets 5. Let's hope we don't run out of t words.

Treasure Mage
This story starts back in the design of Fifth Dawn. One of the themes we'd put into the set was something we called cogs. Cogs were artifacts that had a converted mana cost of 1 or less and had small effects. We then made a number of cards in the set which interacted with the cogs to help you build a deck around them. One such card was designed by Aaron Forsythe:
Aaron enjoys tutoring and "enters the battlefield" effects on creatures, so he combined them to make a cog-friendly Wizard. Trinket Mage got printed and has seen play in numerous formats. (Having a lot of powerful artifacts with a converted mana cost of 1 or less in older formats didn't hurt.)
Flash forward a number of years to Mirrodin Besieged. We're back on Mirrodin, so we decided to make a mirror of Trinket Mage called Treasure Mage . Instead of searching for a small artifact (one with a converted mana cost of 1 or less), it looks for a large artifact (one that has a converted mana cost of 6 or more). It was also a 2/2 for 2U, and we called it Treasure Mage to have a similar feel.
While technically the story is done on Treasure Mage 's design, there's still a little more story to tell. The Aether Revolt design team made Trophy Mage , which tutors for an artifact with a converted mana cost of exactly 3. It's also a 2/2 for 2U with a T word in its name. Modern Horizons then made Tribute Mage , which tutors for an artifact with a converted mana cost of exactly 2.
All of this leaves artifacts of converted mana costs 4 or 5 unaccounted for, but I have faith that one day, provided we don't run out of T words, we'll see this—I'm not sure what to call it as "cycle" seems a little off—completed.

Les cartes Hall of Heliod's Generosity, Academy Ruins et Volrath's Stronghold forment un méga-méga-cycle de terrains légendaires produisant un mana incolore et qui, pour deux manas dont un coloré, permettent de remettre un permanent d'un type défini sur le dessus de votre bibliothèque depuis votre cimetière.
Les cinq cartes Oath of Gideon, Oath of Jace, Oath of Liliana, Oath of Chandra et Oath of Nissa, complétées plus tard par Oath of Ajani, Oath of Teferi et Oath of Kaya, forment un méga-méga-cycle appelé "Oath" d'enchantements légendaires représentant les serments de chaque planeswalker ayant fait ou faisant partie des Sentinelles. De plus leurs textes d'ambiance se font écho.
Toutes ces cartes sont illustrées par Wesley Burt.

Les cinq cartes Kor Haven, Teferi's Isle, Volrath's Stronghold, Keldon Necropolis et Yavimaya Hollow forment un méga-méga-cycle de terrains légendaires associés chacun à une couleur de mana. Ces terrains édités chacun dans des éditions différentes représentent des lieux notables liés à la Storyline de l'Aquilon.
Source 1 (Archdruid's Charm - "Skip ahead to Stronghold design [...] The story took place in Volrath's Stronghold [...], and I really wanted to make a legendary land for it. I'd remembered that in Mirage, we made Teferi's Isle as a single legendary land that created blue mana. Inspired by my success with the Atog s but thinking bigger, I came up with an idea that I called the "mega-mega cycle." We would print a card from a cycle once each block for five years.") - Source 2 ("What if Teferi's Isle was the first card of a "mega-mega-cycle?" In each block, R&D would include a legendary land in the cycle for the next five years. (It was called a "mega-mega-cycle" as opposed to a "mega-cycle" since the cards would appear once per block rather than once per set.)")

Les cinq cartes Celestial Force, Tidal Force, Baleful Force, Magmatic Force et Verdant Force forment un méga-méga-cycle appelé "Force", d'élémentaux 7/7 avec un coût de huit manas dont trois colorés et une capacité se déclenchant à chaque entretien. Ce cycle est remarquable car il a débuté avec l'édition Tempest (Verdant Force) pour se terminer 16 ans plus tard.
Les cinq cartes Auratog, Chronatog, Necratog, Atog et Foratog forment un méga-méga-cycle appelé "Atog" où chaque carte est parue dans une édition différente.
Source ("The original Atog was a red creature from Antiquities, Magic's second expansion. [...] It became my first favorite card. [...] So, when I realized that Mirage had a card that was essentially an Atog mechanically (i.e., it ate a resource to get a boost until end of turn), I insisted that we make it an Atog . Once that happened, I had a quest. I was going to keep putting Atog s in sets until we had one of every color. [...] So, each of the next three sets had one.")

Les cinq cartes Sword of Light and Shadow, Sword of Fire and Ice, Sword of Feast and Famine, Sword of War and Peace et Sword of Body and Mind forment un méga-méga-cycle appelé "Sword" qui a la particularité d'avoir été édité sur une période de 8 ans, de 2004 à 2011.
Ce méga-méga-cycle d'épées associées aux couleurs ennemies a inspiré un méga-méga-cycle d'épées associées aux couleurs alliées (voir cette anecdote).
