Due to the COVID-19/Coronavirus outbreak, Magic: The Gathering players from around the world have decided to quarantine themselves at home for their health and safety, and even though they could just play the popular trading card game's digital versions (Magic Arena or Magic Online), many would rather play with actual paper cards with their friends, and to accomplish that without meeting each other in person, they have to be resourceful, using cardboard boxes, video apps, lamps, video cameras, mobile phones, and computers so that they can play remotely with their friends.

Check out how various players are playing paper Magic in quarantine:
