Template:Expansion Conflux is the second set in the Alara block. The prerelease events for this set will be held January 31-February 1, 2009. Launch parties will be held February 6-8, 2009.[1]
Set details
On September 29, 2008, the entire Conflux card list was leaked on MTG Salvation, thanks to mjmj.info.[2]
Mechanics
In Conflux, Domain became an ability word.
“ | All the shard keywords are back. Colored artifact creatures are still here. Naya's "power 5 or greater" theme continues. In many ways, Conflux is a big continuation of Shards of Alara. | ” |
Marketing cards
Tokens
The Conflux tokens are:[4]
- 4/4 Angel with flying, produced by Sigil of the Empty Throne
- 3/1 Elemental produced by Rakka Mar
Flavor
A powerful and infinitely sinister force is conspiring to reunite the Shards of Alara. This reunification will come with a deadly price – sheer chaos, as realities begin to overlap. Thus begins the Conflux.
Cycles
- Multicolored protection Bears These 2/2 (bear) ally-colored creatures each have protection from their enemy color — Goblin Outlander (red/black), Nacatl Outlander (green/red), Valeron Outlander (white/green), Vedalken Outlander (blue/white), and Zombie Outlander (black/blue).
- Basic Landcyclers These instants and sorceries have one effect that is relatively overcosted, and can basic landcycle for 1A — Absorb Vis, Fiery Fall, Gleam of Resistance, Sylvan Bounty, and Traumatic Visions.
Reprinted cards
