The Booster Fun of Wilds of Eldraine
Magic celebrated its 30th birthday earlier this month. From the first release of Alpha in 1993 to the upcoming release of Wilds of Eldraine, the excitement of opening a Magic booster has been one of the continued joys of the past 30 years. Personally, I started playing in 1994 with The Dark. Back in those days, you never had any idea of what could possibly come out of boosters. I remember hearing rumors of an artifact that would turn all your lands into Swamps, and this card had no casting cost! Supposedly, there was also an artifact that was so powerful that it cost 55 mana to cast! While Alpha's Cyclopean Tomb and Arabian Nights's Aladdin's Lamp turned out to be more reasonable than rumored, those were just how the early days of Magic worked. Fast forward 30 years, and Magic has come a long way. Today, we are excited to be talking all about the amazing cards and treatments you can find in Wilds of Eldraine.
Full-Art Storybook Basic Lands
We've brought the storybook flair of Eldraine to its basic lands! In Wilds of Eldraine, you'll be able to find these special full-art lands with fairy tale–themed artwork. Created by Hari & Deepti, these lands depict actual light boxes that the artists constructed. It's no tall tale: these lands are beautiful!
These five basic lands can be found in non-foil and traditional foil in Wilds of Eldraine Draft Boosters and Set Boosters, with Collector Boosters always having a traditional foil version. In addition to these full-art basic lands, you can find regular basic lands in Wilds of Eldraine Draft Boosters, Set Boosters, Bundles, and Commander decks.
Showcase Adventure Treatment
In Throne of Eldraine, we introduced our first official Booster Fun treatment: the showcase Adventure treatment! These cards have a special frame that looks like you're reading out of an old collection of fairy tales. This frame returns in Wilds of Eldraine, with 7 mythic rare and 13 rare adventurer cards receiving this stylish treatment.
You can find these treatments in Wilds of Eldraine Draft Boosters, Set Boosters, and Collector Boosters.
Enchanting Tales
Magic has tales of its own, with cards becoming beloved stories of exhilarating gameplay. Now, we're bringing some of Magic players' favorite enchantments to Eldraine as Enchanting Tales: a bonus sheet of special borderless cards that give these enchantments fairy tale–style artwork. Like cards in our previous bonus sheets from The Brothers' War and Strixhaven: School of Mages, these cards aren't Standard legal but can be played in your Wilds of Eldraine drafts and formats in which the cards are currently legal.
There are 63 Enchanting Tales cards to find (15 mythic rares, 30 rares, and 18 uncommons), and you can open them in any Wilds of Eldraine booster. That's right: Draft Boosters, Set Boosters, and Collector Boosters will all contain these beautiful cards. You'll also be able to find …
Anime Borderless Enchanting Tales
We worked with talented Japanese artists to bring special anime-themed treatments of the Enchanting Tales cards to life in Wilds of Eldraine. These treatments appear on 15 mythic rares and 5 select rares from the Enchanting Tales bonus sheet. You can find 1 rare and 3 mythic rare Enchanting Tales cards per color with the anime borderless treatment.
Draft and Set Boosters each have a dedicated slot that will always have an Enchanting Tales card. In 2.8% (1.1% rare/1.7% mythic rare) of boosters, that dedicated slot will have an anime borderless card. Set Boosters have 2 wildcard slots where both Enchanting Tales and anime borderless Enchanting Tales cards have a small chance to drop as well. In Japanese-language Draft, Set, and Collector Boosters, the anime borderless Enchanting Tales cards will be in Japanese. In other boosters, these cards will be in English.
In addition to both non-foil and traditional foil Enchanting Tales and anime borderless Enchanting Tales cards, Wilds of Eldraine Collector Boosters will also contain special confetti foil versions of the borderless anime cards, where the beautiful anime art gets a special foil treatment.
These confetti foil anime borderless Enchanting Tales can be found in Wilds of Eldraine Collector Boosters. Like their normal counterparts, these cards will be in Japanese in Japanese Collector Boosters and in English in non-Japanese Collector Boosters. Each Collector Booster has a 2.8% chance of having 1 of the 20 confetti foil cards (1.1% rare/1.7% mythic rare).
Borderless Cards
In Wilds of Eldraine, there are 11 special cards with the borderless treatment. These cards break free from the confines of the traditional Magic frame to show off their stunning artwork. You can find 1 mythic rare borderless planeswalker, 1 mythic rare borderless adventurer card, and 5 borderless rare or 4 mythic rare cards from the set in Draft Boosters, Set Boosters, and Collector Boosters.
For a taste of the borderless beauty, check out Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator.
New-to-Magic Jumpstart and Commander Cards
Wilds of Eldraine Set Boosters and Collector Boosters have a few additional cards to uncover that don't appear in Wilds of Eldraine Draft Boosters.
For our Commander players, we created 6 new rares and 2 new mythic rares that are intended for Commander play. With only four colors represented in our two Wilds of Eldraine Commander decks, we wanted to include new red Commander cards (and other colors) representing Eldraine. These will be found in the regular frame in Set Boosters, with extended-art versions in Collector Boosters. Exclusive Commander cards will be legal in Commander, Legacy, and Vintage, so get ready to add these sweet new cards to your favorite Commander deck!
During Wilds of Eldraine design, we created 10 uncommon and 5 rare cards that we intended to use in Jumpstart Boosters. While we won't be releasing Jumpstart Boosters with Wilds of Eldraine, we decided to include these delightful designs as a one-time transition even though we didn't end up using them in Jumpstart Boosters. Exclusive Jumpstart cards will be legal in Standard, Pioneer, Modern, and anywhere cards in the Wilds of Eldraine main set will be legal. Set Boosters contain regular versions of these 15 cards found, on occasion, in non-foil in the 2 wildcard slots or in traditional foil in the foil slot. Collector Boosters will have the 5 rares available in extended art (non-foil only).
Art Cards
Wilds of Eldraine Set Boosters each contain a special art card, a tribute to the amazing artwork that brings Magic sets to life. Each Set Booster will contain one of these art cards, a special card that displays the artwork of a card from Wilds of Eldraine. These cards don't represent their set counterparts. Instead, they're meant to fully display the artwork from the cards.
As a bonus, 1 in every 10 Set Boosters will have a foil-stamped art card with the artist's signature or the Planeswalker symbol as a special way to show off the artist's work.
