Wilds of Eldraine is the ninety-seventh Magic expansion. It will be released on September 8, 2023.[2][3][4][5]

Set details

“  A Tale Only You Can Tell  ”

Wilds of Eldraine Set Boosters feature Universes Within versions of the Secret Lair Drop Series: The Walking Dead characters.[4]

Storyline

Eriette, Charming Witch by Magali Villeneuve

The storybook world of Eldraine awaits as we venture beyond the Realm into the darker Wilds, filled with fairy-tale wonder — and danger. The witch Eriette is responsible for a curse that’s lying over the land as others vie for power in a land looking for leadership. As Will Kenrith takes up his father’s sword and seeks peace as a way to fix his home, his twin sister Rowan, now a Strixhaven trained mage, thinks she can gain enough magical power to make everything back to the way it was. Meanwhile the non-desparked planeswalker Ashiok has arrived to profit from the slumber curse nobody can wake up from.[4]

This visit delves much heavier into the fairy tales and less into the Arthurian legend, though it's still in the set.

Magic Story

Marketing

Syr Gynger on the Collector Booster

Wilds of Eldraine is sold in regular 16-card Draft Boosters (one card being a marketing card), Collector Boosters, Set Boosters, the Wilds of Eldraine Bundle and two Commander decks.[6] The Jumpstart Boosters for this set have been replaced by a Starter Kit. Starting with this set, the packaging for the Commander decks is changed. They don't show the face card anymore on the front. The land slot will have full-art lands in 33% of draft/set boosters.

Enchanting Tales

Main article: Wilds of Eldraine/Enchanting Tales

Enchanting Tales is a separate set of cards associated with Wilds of Eldraine, similar to the Retro Artifacts and Multiverse Legends Bonus sheets. In Enchanting Tales, Wizards of the Coast have reprinted 63 enchantments with a special card frame and the set code WOT.[7] Wilds of Eldraine Draft and Set Boosters contain TBA Enchanting Tales cards, and Collector Boosters have at least TBA. These will only be legal in formats that they are already legal in and in Historic. They are not part of the Standard environment, however, the cards may be used in Limited events.

Events

Promos

Tokens and markers

Wilds of Eldraine has tokens and emblems

  1. {B} 1/1 Nightmare creature with "At the beginning of combat on your turn, if a card was put in exile this turn, put a +1/+1 counter in this creature." for Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator.
  2. {C} Food artifact for Tough Cookie.

Themes and mechanics

Where the original Eldraine had a theme for both artifacts and enchantments, this time it trends heavier to the Enchantment themes. Food is also a major theme again.

Adventures make a return. Some of them are multicolor now.

Card types

This set features one Planeswalker card: Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator. Going forward, the general intent is that there will be only one Planeswalker per set.
