| ==Contents==
| |
| ''Izzet vs. Golgari'' contains two 60-card decks consisting of reprints from throughout Magic’s history, along with a preview from the ''[[Return to Ravnica]]'' expansion from October 2012.
| |
| | |
| ==Flavor==
| |
| {{cquote|The [[Izzet League]], under the ingenious mind of its guildmaster, the [[dragon]] [[Niv-Mizzet]], has dabbled, delved, and decoded many mysteries in its insatiable thirst for knowledge. Now the dracomagus seeks to plumb the depths of [[Ravnica]]’s undercity. But the Golgari don’t welcome interlopers in their dank, moldy realm.
| |
| | |
| Under the command of the [[elf|elvish]] lich lord [[Jarad]], the [[Golgari]] have dwelled in darkness long enough. The Swarm grows restless and its rot farms need fresh corpses. Jarad believes the time is right to teach Niv-Mizzet’s magewrights a lesson: that there is no place for Izzet research in the vicious cycle of life and death.<ref>{{DailyRef|mtg/daily/arcana/966|Announcing Izzet vs. Golgari|Monty Ashley|Monday, May 07, 2012}}</ref>}}
