Magic: The Gathering players hit the jackpot with the MagicCon: Las Vegas Preview Panel today, getting to see countless previews from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan, Ravnica Remastered, and the holiday release of The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth.
Here are the key dates and product packaging for the set.
The Lost Caverns of Ixalan focuses on the explorers and indigenous people of the plane as they seek the center of Ixalan in search of Cosmium, a new resource of power. The source is in the control of the Oltec, the descendants of the Sun Empire.
Chimil, the Inner Sun is found at the core of Ixalan.
Dinosaurs, of course, are back and one of the main draws of the set. Check out Gishath.
Cosmium makes gold feel like charcoal, according to Ovidio Cartagena, a member of the world building team for The Lost Caverns of Ixalan.
We also get to see Quintorius in his planeswalker form on the plane.
Kellan had made his way to Ixalan via an Omenpath as well, continuing his questing ways.
Saheeli is found on the plane, living her best post-planeswalker life with her partner, Hautli.
Speaking of Huatli, her is the Poet of Unity and her Roar of the Fifth People.
Take a look at The Skullpore Nexus, sporting the new Borderless Oltec showcase treatment.
And here is Ojer Axonil, Deepest Might/Temple of Power in the Gods of Ixalan showcase treatment.
Cavern of Souls is getting a reprint and returning to Standard, and thus coming to Pioneer as well. Check out the special version of it in the Cosmium Neon Ink treatment.
And there are multiple versions of the Neon Ink treatment, similar to Hidetsugu, Devouring Chaos from Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty.
How about a new legendary creature in the Legends of Ixalan Showcase treatment? Here is Breeches, Eager Pillager.
Of course, there are borderless cards coming as well. Meet Ghatla, Stampede Tyrant.
Box toppers are returning in the form of Treasure Trove cards. These are special treatments for reprinted artifacts. Check out Coercive Portal.
And then there are the special guests that were mentioned at GenCon. The first revealed special guest is Lord of Atlantis.
Apparently the special guests can be artifacts, too! Look at all the different Mana Crypts you could open soon.
