Modern Masters 2017, officially styled as Modern Masters 2017 Edition, is the third set in the Modern Masters series. It is a booster-based compilation set containing cards legal in, and intended for, the Modern format. It was released on March 17, 2017.[3][4]

Set details

The Magic logo without The Gathering

Modern Masters 2017 is a 249 card set consisting of reprints of cards originally printed between Eighth Edition and Magic 2014, including trips through Innistrad and Return to Ravnica. Modern Masters 2017 is exclusively booster-based, thus no satellite products such as preconstructed theme decks are branded with the set. Each booster contains 15 playable cards: 10 commons, 3 uncommons and one rare or mythic rare, and one foil card of any rarity replacing the usual basic land. The 16-card boosters (the sixteenth card is a marketing card) feature artwork from Domri Rade, Griselbrand and Stoic Angel.[5] Like Modern Masters 2015 and Eternal Masters before, the MSRP of one booster is set to $9.99. Due to the higher MSRP booster displays only contain 24 packs, which is also the number required for a regular draft (three boosters for each of eight players), as the set was designed specifically for draft. A number of cards change rarity to create a better drafting environment.

Marketing

The set is be printed in English, Japanese, and Chinese Simplified. Like Modern Masters 2015, the packaging material features the word Magic, without : The Gathering. According to Mark Rosewater, it is something WotC is experimenting with on supplemental products.[6]
