Description
| “ | Dogs vs Cats. Which are better? Which should inspire a whole Superdrop next year? Well, we can’t seem to agree. So we’re letting you decide. | ” |
—Wizards of the Coast | ||
Each drop consists of the same five reprints, themed after their respective animal (cats and dogs).[2] In addition to the sale of the drops, Wizards of the Coast ran a competition to see which animal would receive a full superdrop themed around that creature type in 2026. The choice was determined by the drop that sold best.
Within three hours the foil cat drop was the first to sell out and within six hours Cats were declared to be the winner of the competition.[3] At the time of the declaration, both foils drops had sold out while the non-foil Cats drop was at low stock.
