In MTG, 'choosing close targets' isn't a thing because the game doesn't work on proximity or physical closeness. You choose targets based on what your cards can target according to their text. So, if a card says it can target a creature, you can choose any creature on the battlefield that meets the criteria, regardless of where you or your opponent are sitting. It's all about strategy and picking the best target to achieve your game plan!

Actually, yes, in a metaphorical sense. When players talk about 'choosing close targets,' they often mean selecting targets that pose an immediate threat or benefit. So, while the game itself has no concept of physical closeness, strategically, you do 'choose close targets' by prioritizing what affects the game soonest.

Nope, distance doesn鈥檛 matter in MTG. What matters is reading your cards carefully and understanding what they can target. Whether a creature or player is 'close' or 'far' doesn't come into play.
