The 30th Anniversary Countdown Kit is a product in the Secret Lair product range.

Description

The 30th Anniversary Countdown Kit is a special Secret Lair that celebrates the 30 years of Magic.[2] It is a limited-run product containing 30 cards: one iconic card from each year of Magic's history. Each classic card has a unique twist, thanks to the featured artists and its own individual stylized booster pack wrapper. Rip them all open at once, or crack one each day like a Advent calendar to count down to the start of 2023. The price is $149.99

These cards are not only some of the highlights of Magic, but also feature tournament-winning cards from each of those years.

As a bonus, each card has a 30% chance to be upgraded to a traditional foil.
