Duel Decks: Izzet vs. Golgari

Duel Decks: Izzet vs. Golgari is the tenth set in the Duel Decks series. It will be released on September 7th, 2012 and contains two preconstructed theme decks. The MSRP is $19.99.

Contents

Izzet vs. Golgari contains two 60-card decks consisting of reprints from throughout Magic’s history, along with a preview from the Return to Ravnica set from October.

Flavor

The Izzet League, under the ingenious mind of its guildmaster, the dragon Niv-Mizzet, has dabbled, delved, and decoded many mysteries in its insatiable thirst for knowledge. Now the dracomagus seeks to plumb the depths of Ravnica’s undercity. But the Golgari don’t welcome interlopers in their dank, moldy realm.

Under the command of the elvish lich lord Jarad, the Golgari have dwelled in darkness long enough. The Swarm grows restless and its rot farms need fresh corpses. Jarad believes the time is right to teach Niv-Mizzet’s magewrights a lesson: that there is no place for Izzet research in the vicious cycle of life and death.

• Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind
