Set details

“  Too Strong. Too Shiny  ”

Double Masters 2022 features the same elements as of the original Double Masters that was released in 2020. Each Draft Booster features two rare and/or mythic rare cards plus two foil cards. Many reprints feature new artwork. Double Masters 2022 contains 332 cards (91 commons, 80 uncommons, 120 rares, 40 mythic rares, 1 special)[3] and includes randomly inserted premium versions of all but one cards. One new card with a L-Rarity shows up in every booster (Cryptic Spires (#332), this never appears in foil. Borderless cards are #333-#412. Every rare and mythic rare in the set has a foil-etched version (#413-#572). Select cards with a "textured foil" treatment[5] can be found in Collector Boosters (#573-577).[6] There are also two release cards, which are numbered #578 and #579.

Themes and mechanics

Double Masters 2022 features the following multicolored limited archetypes:

Cryptic Spires

Cryptic Spires is the first new-to-Magic card to appear in a Masters set.[8] It is designed to help smooth out the mana in the Draft format. Each Double Masters 2022 Draft Booster contains exactly one Cryptic Spires. The card is similar to a checklist card; it doesn't appear in foil, nor does it appear in Collector Boosters. Cryptic Spires is legal in any Commander deck. As you create your deck, you circle two of the mana symbols depicted on the bottom of the card. That card can tap for one mana of either of the circled colors.

In limited, your deck can have more than 4 copies of Cryptic Spires, assuming you drafted them. In constructed, you are limited to the cap of the format (In Standard a maximum of 4).[9]

Cycles

Double Masters 2022 has cycles.

Cycle name {W/U} {U/B} {B/R} {R/G} {G/W} {W/B} {U/R} {B/G} {R/W} {G/U}

When each of these common nonbasic dual lands from the Ravnica block enters the battlefield tapped, its controller returns a land they control to its owner's hand. Each of these lands can tap to produce two mana, one of each of its associate guild's colors.
