You're assuming that Discord is made entirely of magic, which was shown to be inaccurate when Tirek didn't completely consume him. He has a lot of magic, but he has a physical body nonreliant on that magic.
Your explanation of alpha and beta just back up my point of it having to be magnetic - there are no other forces the naturally-occuring could use to drag in magic other than magnetism, or some innately-present runes which, for some reason, give changeling-magic a pass (unlikely)
