Wizards of the Coast has revealed the first of many crossovers between 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Magic: The Gathering and Marꦅvel, with a full Secret Lair superdrop dedicated to five of its biggest heroes.
The Magic: The Gathering X Marvel Superdrop will include a mix of mechanically unique cards and skinned ܫreprints, with the intention of each drop being the foundaജtion for a Commander deck build around that character.
Each drop will cost $39.99 for a regular edition, and $49.99 for a foil when they launch on on November 4. Like other recent drops,168澳洲幸运5开奖网: such as Monty Python, it will be a limited-time release only available for as lonꦏg as stocks last, meaning it could sell out very quickly.
You can play with these cards in Commander, Vintage, and Legacy alongside any other Magic cards, including ones from other Universes Beyond crossovers like Lord o𝐆f the Rings and Doctor Who.
Secret Lair X Marvel's Captain America
Captain America Secret Lair Drop |
||
---|---|---|
Captain America, First Avenger |
Shield Of War And Peace (Sword Of War And Peace) |
Captain America's Aid (Sigarda's Aid) |
Flawless Maneuver |
In The Trenches |
The first drop is Captain America, a white/blue/red commander that cares about Equipment artifacts. He’s unique among Equipment commanders in that he cares less about building up a huge pile of them and smaജshing face, and more about tactically unequipping them with the Throw ability.
A neat touch is that his casting cost of one red, one white, and one blue mana is formatted differently to normal ‘Jeskai’ cards, which traditionally order the👍m blue, white, and🅠 then red.
In the drop you’ll find a collection of cards perfect for 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:any Voltron deck, and a heck of a lot of reprint equity. Flawless Maneuver is one of a cycle of spells you can cast for free if you control your commander, and Sigarda’s Aid gives you a cheap way to put Equipment on Cap ready for him to lob th🦹em. And, of course, Cap’s shield is here as a reskin of Sword Of War And Peace, a great go-to card in Voltron decks.
These drops aren’t specifically tied to either the comics or the Marvel Cinematic Universe, so have an interesting blend of the two. The best example of this is Captain America’s Aid, which has both the Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson incarnations of Captain America, with Sam baring a resembl꧟ance to actor Anthony Mackie.
Secret Lair X Marvel's Black Panther
Black Panther Secret Lair Drop |
||
---|---|---|
Black Panther, Wakandan King |
Wakandan Skyscraper (Karn's Bastion) |
Heroic Intervention |
Bast's Blessing (Primal Vigor) |
Secure The Wastes |
Warrior Token |
The King of Wakanda is the star of the seconᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚd drop, and his ability🅠 is an impressive mix of two of green and white’s most common deck types: +1/+1 counters, and lifegain.
Creatures entering will build up +1/+1 counters on a land, which you can then pay to move them onto a creature and gain that much life. Alternatively, you could use any of the green land animation cards printed in green to skip moving the🏅m, which feels fitting for Black Panther.
Black Panther doesn’t have black in his casting cost. This is because, in Magic, black is seen as 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a selfish colour that will sacrifice anything in the pursuit of powౠer, completely contrary to Black Panther’s character.
The reprints for this drop include some of best green cards in the Commander format, with Heroic Intervention and Primal Vigor. You’ve al𒉰so got Karn’s Bastion, a colourless land that can proliferate the counters on your lands or creatures as a much-needed reprint.
Se𒉰cure The Wastes might not seen like as exciting a reprint when stacked up next to Primal Vigor, but it’s an easy way to trigger Black Panther’s ability potentially dozens of times. The drop also comes with a Dora Milaje Warrior token.
Secret Lair X Marvel's Iron Man
Iron Man Secret Lair Drop |
||
---|---|---|
Iron Man, Titan Of Innovation |
Inventor's Fair |
Sol Ring |
Commander's Plate |
Galvanic Blast |
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pod decks are very popular in Commander. Named after the card Birthing Pod𝄹, they sacrifice creatures to go and find progressively more expensive ones and p𒈔ut them into play, and Iron Man introduces a similar tactic to artifacts.
Sacrifice an artifact, and you can go and put another ar🎶tifact that costs one more than the one you sacrificed straight into play. This means a Treasure token can become a Sol Ring, or a♋ Thran Dynamo could become a Coat Of Arms with ease.
The art on C🌳ommandღer’s Plate evokes vibes of Iron Man’s slicker ‘Bleeding Edge’ suit.
The reprints on offer here include the most-played card in all of Commander, a Sol Ring in the style of Iron Man’s Arc Reactor. Commander’s Plate 🧜and Inventor’s Fair add a huge amount of reprint value to the drop (and are excellent cards), and while Galvanic Blast isn’t a big-dollar card, it’s certainly on-flavour for Iron Man.
Secret Lair X Marvel's Storm
Storm Secret Lair Drop |
||
---|---|---|
Storm, Force Of Nature |
Ororo Borealis (Manamorphose) |
Storm's Will (Jeska's Will) |
Lightning Bolt |
Ice Storm |
The first of two X-Men-themed drops is Ororo Monroe, also known as Storm. There’s no prizes for guessing what her card does: she�🍃� wants you to deal combat damage to cast your next spell with storm.
If a spell has storm, you copy it🐻 for each spell previously cast that turn.
Just a few of the terrifying ways Storm’s storm could🦩 be ღused in the included reprints. Lightning Bolt is a staple that could, with the right deck, build up enough storm copies to just blast someone out of the game. Alternatively, Storm’s Will is a reskinned Jeska’s Will, one of the best mono-red cards in the game for the mana and card advantage it can give you.
Ice Storm is a fascinating inclusion here. Land destruction is sometimes frowned upon in Commander🍎, and Ice Storm being cast with storm to potentially wipe a board of all of its lands could be slightly spicier than people are anticipating.
The finaꦕlౠ card is a reskinned version of a storm deck classic, Manamorphose. Amusingly named Ororo Borealis now, it gives you mana and draws you enough cards to storm away with the game and have the mana to do it.
Reskinned cards ღare treated as if they are the same as their non-skinned version. A deck can only have one ♍copy of either Manamorphose or Ororo Borealis in it, as they are the same card.
Secret Lair X Marvel's Wolverine
Wolverine Secret Lair Drop |
||
---|---|---|
Wolverine, The Best There Is |
Berserk |
Rhythm Of The Wild |
Rite Of Passage |
Adamantium Bonding Tank (The Ozolith) |
The final drop is personally one of my favourite Marvel characters, Wolverine. Like Storm, he brings 🀅back an underused older mechanic in regenerate, to reflect his healing factor ability. Elsewhere, he’s a fantasti🦩c smashy commander, dealing damage and rewarding you with +1/+1 counters if he hits a creature.
His reprints include staples stompy players will love, like Rhythm of the Wild and Berserk, but also +1/+1 counter staples in Rite of Passage and The Ozolith, skinned here as the Adamantium Bonding Tank. Unsurprisingly, most of the reprint ꦉvalue in this drop lies in Berserk and The Ozolith, which are rarely made this easily available.
You could put three of these cards in a deck with Black Panther and go✅ all-in on +1/+1 counters 😼if you wanted to.
The art is interesting here, showing off different eras of Wolverine. Berserk has the brown John Byrne uniform, while Rite of Passage has his more famous blue and yellow costum🃏e and a surprise cameo by X-23, Wolverine’s Prodigy.
Earth’s Mightiest Emblem (Arcane Signet) Promo
Capping o🎐ff the Marvel superdrop 🌠is an exclusive promo version of the Commander staple Arcane Signet. This is only available# by buying the bundle that includes every drop.
This version of Arcane Siꦫgnet is none other than the Avenger’s Tower, which has become one of the most memorable buildings in the entire Marvel canon. Although promo Arcane Signets are rarely all that valuable, Universes Beyond ones like this can spike in cost, making it worth picking up if you’re planning on building a♐ Marvel-centric deck.
