Magic: The Gathering 2013 Core Set (Magic 2013) is an upcoming advanced level core set being released July 13, 2012. Prerelease Events will take place July 7-8, 2012 and Launch Parties will take place July 13-15, 2012 (conflicing with report of "no more Launch Parties"[1]). Game Day will be on August 4-5, 2012.
Set Details
Magic 2013 is the first Core Set to have a multicolored card, i.e. Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker. It thus follows the tradition of recent Core Sets giving a taste and support to the themes of the Expansion following it, namely multicolored cards in Return to Ravnica. It also reintroduces Legendary Creatures last seen in Tenth Edition, though in this case the legendary creatures are original.
