The set was initially announced as Conspiracy: The Reign of Brago.[3][4] However, the day immediately after the initial set announcement, official twitter announced The Reign of Brago would not be the set name, along with a picture showing apparent assassination of Brago.[5] The set was renamed on February 24 to The Empty Throne to reflect the plot twist.[6][7] Also the number of cards was reduced from 221 to 220 too (Brago is dead, so clearly there's one less card) and the quote was changed from “Long May He Reign” to “The King Is Dead, Long Live the King”.

But two days later the title was changed again to Conspiracy: Take the Crown along with the reveal of the set symbol. The card count is now up to 221 again with the new queen added and the slogan was also changed, this time to “You Stab My Back And I'll Stab Yours”.[8][9][1]
