[[File:UMA Product range.png|right|300px|thumb|''Ultimate Masters'' product range]]
''Ultimate Masters'' contains 254 cards {{curmb|101|80|53|20}} and includes randomly inserted [[premium]] versions of all cards. The product contains cards from across ''Magic''<nowiki/>'s entire history with some of ''Magic''<nowiki/>'s most popular cards. Every [[booster box]] of ''Ultimate Masters'' contains 24 booster packs—each with fifteen randomly inserted game cards, including one premium [[foil]] card in every pack. The sixteen-card boosters (the sixteenth card is a [[marketing card]]) feature artwork from <c>Liliana of the Veil</c>, <c>Karn Liberated</c>, and <c>Vengevine</c>. The set will be released in English and Japanese.
 
Boxes of ''Ultimate Masters'' were only  available through [[LGS|local games stores]], while big-box stores like Walmart and Target had three-pack blister packs ([[Draft Pack]]s). ''Ultimate Masters'' had an MSRP higher than previous ''Masters'' products. The MSRP was $13.99 per booster pack, $335.76 per [[booster box]], and $34.99 per blister pack. WotC said that "supplies would be limited", implying that the print run for ''Ultimate Masters'' likely was small.

Ultimate Masters product range

Ultimate Masters contains 254 cards (101 commons, 80 uncommons, 53 rares, 20 mythic rares) and includes randomly inserted premium versions of all cards. The product contains cards from across Magic's entire history with some of Magic's most popular cards. Every booster box of Ultimate Masters contains 24 booster packs—each with fifteen randomly inserted game cards, including one premium foil card in every pack. The sixteen-card boosters (the sixteenth card is a marketing card) feature artwork from Liliana of the Veil, Karn Liberated, and Vengevine. The set will be released in English and Japanese.

Boxes of Ultimate Masters were only available through local games stores, while big-box stores like Walmart and Target had three-pack blister packs (Draft Packs). Ultimate Masters had an MSRP higher than previous Masters products. The MSRP was $13.99 per booster pack, $335.76 per booster box, and $34.99 per blister pack. WotC said that "supplies would be limited", implying that the print run for Ultimate Masters likely was small.

This set was said to be the last Masters series set "for the foreseeable future".[5] However, Double Masters would be released less than two years later.

Ultimate Box Topper

Main article: Ultimate Masters/Ultimate Box Topper

Each booster box came with a random semi-borderless foil box topper, each being available as regular card in the set, too.[6] There is a total of 40 box toppers.

Magic Online

Ultimate Masters released on Magic Online on December 7, 2018, the same day as the paper set. Box toppers were distributed by Treasure Chests.

Themes and mechanics

Ultimate Masters was originally designed as a graveyard-themed set, nicknamed Immortal Masters. This theme is still present in the set symbol and in promotional text on the booster boxes.[7] It has fourteen returning keywords.[3] Every color in this set has multiple cards that care about the graveyard in some way, providing resources for delve, flashback, and dredge in blue, black, and green.[8] White and red see the return of the heroic mechanic from Theros. In addition, white has a heavy Aura subtheme, and madness is prevalent in red.
