Announcing Secret Lair: Summer Superdrop
This sale is postponed out of respect for the National Day of Mourning. Sales will resume Monday at 9am.
Ahh, summer has finally come to the Northern Hemisphere. The sun is shining, birds are singing, our future robot overlords are laying the foundation for their eventual dominion. Wait, what?
That's right, the time has come to unveil the Secret Lair: Summer Superdrop!
Now, you may be wondering what a "superdrop" is. If you've been with us since way back in December 2019, I'm sure you remember the very first group of Secret Lair drops we released back-to-back-to-back in rapid-fire succession. That's a superdrop! The Secret Lair Drop Series is built around 24-hour flash releases, and superdrops are our marquee moments—our let's-blow-the-roof-off extravaganzas where we bring a whole bunch of different drops together and really showcase the wide range of exciting Secret Lair weirdness.
Beginning June 1, we'll be releasing five unique Secret Lair drops for preorder in quick succession—each with blink-and-you'll-miss-it 24-hour availability only at secretlair.wizards.com. These drops will also be available in a bundle that includes a very special bonus! These are all preorders, meaning all drops will ship at a later date once product is available.
So, what's in these drops? Scroll down to see!

We sat some classic cards down in the chair, and they emerged with some rad new ink.

Maybe in yet another universe, these Planeswalkers are collecting cards of you!

This drop celebrates the quintessential red spell: the humble and efficient Lightning Bolt. Whether it's destroying your opponent's mana dork on turn one or simply being hurled into their face, Lightning Bolt does it all, as long as "all" can be done with 3 direct damage. Each piece shows a different creature getting totally wrecked by the cruel and unforgiving power of nature (out of respect for the feelings of Ornithological Studies, Birds will be getting a pass). These full-art foil cards feature electrifying, brand-new art by Noah Bradley, Brigitte Roka, Robbie Trevino, and Alexis Ziritt.

Of all of Magic's fictional creatures, Birds are far and away the most popular. First invented by Richard Garfield in 1987, Birds eventually made their way into Limited Edition (Alpha) via the powerful Birds of Paradise card. We thought it would be cool to envision what Birds would look like if they existed in real life, so we commissioned some naturalistic, classical illustrations from Ovidio Cartagena and Allen Douglas.
