    Does anybody know which are the commander cards 29 to 36? Retro versions from the set booster exclusive? Other???


    They're the Retro basic lands, two for each color except green. You can see them near the bottom here.

    Could someone tell me what is so unique about the Ajani #371? It doesn't look Foil Etched, and it's not the regular, Borderless, or showcase art. Is it just the Phyrexian version in English?

    So far the revealed Planeswalkers are Elminster in Blue White, Tasha Witch Queen in Blue Black, and Minsc in Red Green. The wiki thinks its a full allied coloured Planeswalker cycle, so that leave red black (most likely Strahd IMHO), and Green White (Drizzt as a Planeswalker this time).

    Other planeswalkers wouldn't fit into the number crunch unless they came after Tasha.

    Quote from HighHolder »
    Braids compleated makes zero sense. Events in odyssey block happened Millenia before invasion from my recollection.

    Yawgmoth is defeated in 4205 and Odyssey block starts roughly 100 years later.
    https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Timeline


    But it still doesn't make sense that Braids would be compleated in modern Dominaria/Dominaria United, which is way after Odyssey block, right?. That does look a lot like her, but I don't know how she could survive this long to get compleated by new Phyrexia, and we didn't see any of her in Dominaria despite lots of other Odyssey block remnants or descendants making an appearance. (I also wouldn't draw too much from the collector booster box art, these tend to be far afield of how the cards look in their regular canonical art.)

    Quote from Giianzha »
    Braids is compleated because Wrenn compleated her .


    This makes even less sense.

    I don't know the logistics of all of it, but as someone else mentioned, Braids became trapped in her own dementia space to avoid being buried alive, so it's possible she could have survived in there after all these years.

    So we have to see if the change to 16 cards (Draft booster) is just a name change or if indeed there is an extra card in these.

    Previous packaging (Draft Boosters) has always stated "Contains 15 cards" to the best of my recollection.

    Edit: A quick guess, with 2 rares in each the extra card would be a 2nd rare. Makes sense I suppose.


    The first double masters only listed 15 cards on draft booster packs, so they might be including the token now.

    That'd be weird. Every planeswalker from Throne onwards, except the planeswalker deck ones, have a borderless variant.

    What interests me is we have:


    So there's new art for Aminatou which looks like planeswalker art, but she wouldn't fit in the crunch between Liliana and W&6. Would they put new cards into a masters set?,..or have we been jebaited before with unique packaging art without any representation in the set? I can't recall anything, but I could be wrong. She's also on the draft box with Liliana.

    I suppose she could be mono-esper color, but it would have to be a new iteration. Did they confirm somewhere there are only two planeswalkers?

    EDIT: Maybe the gimmick could be one reprinted rare/mythic and one new in each pack

    None of these cards have really been largely reprinted either, aside from a stint on The List, and a retro-frame variant that doesn't show up so often. The empress and Garruk are worth it alone.

    Let's say all I have is a Marath, Will of the Wild on the battlefield with one +1/+1 counter on it. I pay 1 to remove the counter and make a 1/1 green Elemental. Is there an opportunity for me to tap my Gaea's Cradle for GG before state-based actions check Marath's toughness and place him into the graveyard? Would I need another card that has an etb trigger (such as Impact Tremors) in order for something to be on the stack?
