Wizards of the Coast (WotC) has released the full product overview for Strixhaven: School of Mages, including a look at the new College-themed Prerelease Packs.
Prerelease Packs
Players will align themselves with one of Strixhaven‘s five colleges and select a Prerelease Pack that’s designed to match each college’s unique aesthetic. These Prerelease Packs include everything needed to build a Sealed deck, including:
- 1 College Booster containing a rare or mythic rare guaranteed to match your chosen college, 3 uncommons, 9 commons, and 2 tokens
- 5 Draft Boosters
- 1 Year-stamped foil rare or mythic rare card (with a new stamp!)
- 1 College-themed spindown
- 1 Insert portraying a piece of the campus map
- 1 Reusable box with divider
Commander Decks
Each Strixhaven Commander deck is themed to match one of the five colleges, and contain “81 new cards,” plus the following:
- 100 Cards (98 regular, 2 foil)
- 1 Foil-etched display commander
- 10 Double-sided tokens
- 1 Life wheel
- 1 Deck box
Set Boosters
Set Boosters return with Strixhaven, and are designed for those who enjoy the thrill of opening packs, rather than Drafting. Each Set Booster includes the following:
- 1 Mystical Archive card (uncommon, rare, or mythic rare)
- 1 Lesson card of any rarity
- 1 Traditional foil card of any rarity*
- 1 Card from The List in 1 out of 4 boosters
- 1 Art Card
Draft Boosters
Strixhaven Draft Boosters remain a comfortable consistent, with the only change being to include cards from the Mystical Archive. According to WotC, in Japanese Booster packs, “50% of all Mystical Archive cards will have the… alternate art and frame.”
- 1 Rare or mythic rare
- 1 Mystical Archive card (uncommon, rare, or mythic rare)
- 1 Lesson card (common, rare, or mythic rare)
- 3 Uncommons
- 9 Commons
- 1 Common card replaced by a foil card of any rarity* in 1 out of 3 boosters
Collector Boosters
Designed with collectors in mind, Collector Boosters contain the most sought-after cards from the set. These include “two foil-etched Mystical Archive cards”, one of which will be “global and the other will always be the Japanese alternate-art variant.” You can view the full contents of the Collector Boosters below.
Strixhaven Bundles
Bundles are a great gift for new and veteran players and contain a “large quantity of cards with some exciting bonuses.”
- 10 Draft Boosters
- 20 Foil basic lands
- 20 Regular basic lands
- 1 Bundle alt-art promo card
- 1 Exclusive oversized spindown
- 1 Card storage box
Theme Boosters
Lastly, Theme Boosters return with Strixhaven, and remain the perfect introductory-level product. Strixhaven Theme Boosters are aligned with each of the five colleges, so new players can easily build a deck containing cards from the college of their choice. Each Theme Booster is filled with a “combination of 1–2 rares and/or mythic rares and 33–34 commons and uncommons.”
