Classic Magic: The Gathering cards get a cyberpunk face-lift in new Secret Lair

If you haven't noticed, Magic: The Gathering's Edge of Eternities set is a whole vibe. The space opera aesthetic is gorgeous, and the set features some of the best MTG art I've ever seen since I started following the game. The lushness of the artwork for Edge of Eternities just appeals to my specific sensibilities. So, when I saw that MTG had a new Secret Lair out with cards ready to be played in Edge of Eternities Commander decks, I knew I had to take a gander. And I wasn't disappointed!

The Secret Lair Featuring: Deathburger features new artwork for cards like Arcbound Ravager, Dance of the Manse, Ethersworn Canonist, Foundry Inspector, and Goblin Engineer, all by the artist Deathburger. Deathburger reimagines these cards within the fantastical and sci-fi world we're seeing in Edge of Eternities. While there's a recognizable Edge of Eternities quality to the artwork, Deathburger also brought a cyberpunk edge to each card, differentiating the set from other cards from EOE.

This Secret Lair drop is available now in both Galaxy Foil ($59.99) and Non-Foil ($29.99) versions. Edge of Eternities is available now, wherever cards are sold. I'll be honest, I've been loving this release thus far, and know I'll be missing this era once Marvel's Spider-Man drops late next month. 


You don't need to beat the game to prepare for the next one—here are all the major new and upcoming games coming our way.
