Alchemy: Eldraine is a MTG Arena-exclusive card set in the Alchemy-series that was released on October 10, 2023.[3][4]
Description
Alchemy: Eldraine is a digital only release adjacent to the release of Wilds of Eldraine. There are 30 new designed-for-digital cards included in the set (10 uncommons, 15 rares, 5 mythic rares)). All of the cards are set on Eldraine.[5]
Mechanics
The digital-only mechanics Conjure, Double team, Perpetually, Seek and Spellbook are reused. From the main set, Bargain, Celebration and the Wicked Role are used.[6]
Drover of the Swine, Porcine Portent and Swine Rebellion are the first cards to share a spellbook, and introduce named spellbooks.
The set re-introduces Fetch counters for the first time since Commander 2020. Boons are modified so they can be used multiple times and the previously existing versions are re-titled "One-time boon".[7] Alchemy: Eldraine doesn't make use of this new format but does contain the first instances of one-time boons.
