There's a mystery on Ravnica, and Murders at Karlov Manor is here to show it all go down. Once you've gotten a fill of the guilds with Ravnica Remastered, look here to see a case beyond the guilds.
First off, chief investigator Alquist Proft. Alquist here can and will go Sphinx's Revelation on your Clues. He's also showing off the first showcase frame: the dossier.
We have some high-profile reprints already. Please welcome back Lightning Helix and Shock to Standard.
This set will have more Story Spotlights than normal in this set, and they'll have their own frame treatment.
We have six guild leaders and Niv-Mizzet in this set. They'll be getting the frame treatment you saw in March of the Machine, and getting serialized versions with 250 copies each.
Every set has a full-art basic land cycle nowadays. They're calling these the Impossible lands.
Here's a stream of new commons and uncommons, used in the stream to show off what a Play Booster will look like. Some of them also come in the dossier showcase frame.
Special Guests is on its second set, and our first drop into Ravnica is with Crashing Footfalls.
And now, the big-ticket crossover, Ravnica Clue Edition, sometimes called Ravnica: Cluedo Editions.
In it we have some reimagined characters from the Clue board game.
The weapons are also getting cards, some of which will also be in the Murders at Karlov Manor main set.
The rooms are also getting cards.
Each box will come with a shockland like this, both giving a reason for most Magic players to throw money at this, but also allowing shocklands a back-to-back reprint.
See here for more details, including the full product lineup. The Card Image Gallery is also out with all these cards. The first of the Murders at Karlov Manor story is out now, to be followed starting January 8.
Meddling youths: hahahahahaahahahahaha I already know this is a reference to scooby doo especially the folder art
Commander decks:
RGW: disguise cards/big surprise — there’s only one guess I can think of for this and it’s (mega)morph/manifest/foretell that’s the only thing I can think of that can disguise the cards
GWU: clue/card advantage — is this legitimate the first card advantage matters and posted above earlier whatever is not reprinted in it will spike hard due to auto upgrade for this deck.
RW: Goad foes/identify suspect — you already made Marisi, Breaker of the Coil you can use him as the commander instead to add G to the deck but will see what the other half of the deck changes to it.
clue crossover.
mrs peacock — JEEEEZ that’s just a forever staple in any deck involving artifacts or/and sacrficing them since artifact decks are notorious for bringing artifacts back into play/hand.
The pipe: that’s a interesting equipment drains if the creature dies and it’s basically a clue token in disguise as well
dining Room: ok so the rooms is a land cycle that’s a engine for clue tokens sadly you need amulet of vigor effects for this one and secondly it’s definately not a 10 card cycle since there’s 9 rooms in the game (probably do a loophole somehow to get the 10th one)
And it’s gonna be so hard to get the clue box because it’s gonna be a blood bath for these all because he said the magic word “a guarateed shockland”

Witness Protection was my immediate thought when I saw "Disguise cards" but basing a set mechanic around auras like that might be a bit much. Still, disguising a mana rock as something else sounds hilarious.
I remember thinking when Shadows Over Innistrad came out, "Wouldn't it be cool to collect a bunch of the little miniature weapons from the board game and use them to represent Clue tokens?" Looks like I was ahead of my time.
Did they just powercreep Thrill of Possibility after already powercreeping Tormenting Voice after powercreeping Wild Guess? I guess Demand Answers is now the new standard for simple red rummaging effects to beat.

I remember people used to call Wild Guess the worst card draw spell of all time. The floor started pretty damn low.
I normally like every form of card advantage on my Angels but usually on 3 to 4 mana cards. I am not sure if new Aurelia isn't too slow to be relevant for that. She is basically a Serra Angel with haste at least. I like that she can trigger on opponents turns, too. I honestly think she is a lot better than she might look at the first glance.
Kind of weird that Kaya's artwork is creature-sized but the story explicitly states she still has her spark.
That is interesting... could they have cropped it to conceal that fact, not realizing the story would reveal it the same day? Or is Kaya for some reason getting a creature card?

A while ago they posted art descriptions for cards and a note was going forward they wanted artists doing planeswalker art to keep in mind the art would be often shown cropped in the same sizes of creatures. Not sure if due to them updating the mothership recently or them knowing the Desparking was gonna happened and wanted to keep it hidden when showing art who has a spark still or not.

It just came to my mind that the Boros commander Precon could have a new, updated Version of Basandra, Battle Seraph. Something like:
Flying
Your opponents can't cast spells during combat.
Whenever a goaded creature attacks, it deals 1 damage to its controller.
1(R): Goad target creature.
4/4
Or something similar. Even if we don't get a new Version, the old one could be in the deck. She fits the theme.

Meet our new (at least for an in-universe release) Detective creature type. Yes, that is a functional reprint of Thraben Inspector next to the Angel.

Detective originated in Dr. Who, but nic to see the type in a standard set.
I'm gonna like this. I thought it was going to be lame at first but I kind of like this concept for a set. I wanna know whodunnit now lol.
HR Analyst. Gamer. Activist | Fearless, and forthright | Aggro-control is a mindset.
Elspeth and Jhoira rock my world.
Young teenagers unmasking bad guys, often seen with a surprisingly intelligent hound? Really?
Nice to see Izzet finally get an artifact theme.
so if vraska and Jace are still here and were uncompleat like ajani and nissa they lost their sparks
RUNIN: Norse mythology set (awaiting further playtesting)
FATE of ALARA: Multicolour factions (currently on hiatus)
Contibutor to the Pyrulea community set

Those basics… needless to say they are soooo pretty. they make very good posters, too.
