The newest release for Magic: The Gathering is almost here, with a brand new set of fairytale-themed cards! Wilds of Eldraine promises players and collectors a selection of cards featuring all the mischief of faeries, the fierceness of dragons, and the sweetness of rogue gingerbread knights. 

Before the clock strikes midnight on release date, we’ve created a complete breakdown of what you can expect when opening packs for Wilds of Eldraine. To start, we’d like to go over some frequently asked questions for this release:

Q: Where can I find the exclusive Commander deck cards?

A: Cards that were printed for Wilds of Eldraine will be part of the main set, Wilds of Eldraine. Cards that were printed exclusively for Commander and older reprints that were slotted into the Commander Decks will be found in Commander: Wilds of Eldraine as they have a unique set abbreviation (WOC) and set symbol.

Q: Why can’t I list the Buy-a-Box promotional card, Expel the Interlopers (Extended Art)?

A: Due to concerns from sellers and Wizards of the Coast’s policy, this card will not be available to list until release day (September 8, 2023).

Q: How can I tell if a card is a Variant Card in the Seller Portal?

A: All variant cards feature their Variant Type in parentheses after the card name. Examples of these will be (Borderless) and (Extended Art). When exporting inventory and sorting by card number, all Variants will be above card number 277 in the main set of Wilds of Eldraine, and above card number 63 for Wilds of Eldraine: Enchanting Tales.

Q: How can I tell if my Enchanting Tales Anime Borderless card is Confetti foil?

A: There are twenty cards in Wilds of Eldraine: Enchanting Tales which were printed with unique anime-themed borderless artwork. All fifteen Mythic Rares and the select 5 Rares that received the Anime Borderless variant print can also be found in a unique foiling treatment in addition to regular non-foil and foil printings.

These unique confetti foil cards have a unique glittery foil pattern that resembles dots of confetti all over the artwork. When looking through the set Wilds of Eldraine: Enchanting Tales on Marketplace, these special foil cards will have the identifiers (Anime Borderless) (Confetti Foil) next to their card name and can be found listed above the card number 83.

TCGplayer Set Name: The List

In order to make The List work well with the existing catalog, we have set up the below guidelines:

  • If the card was previously printed as a non-foil only Mystery Booster Card, it will not be added to The List (this would duplicate the card in the catalog) - List with caution as copies of these cards are already in the wild, and cannot be presold.

  • If the card was previously printed as a foil-only Mystery Booster Retail Exclusive, it will not be added to The List (this would separate printings of the same card in the catalog) - The non-foil printings will not be listable until release day (September 8, 2023), and cannot be presold.

Cards from The List can be found in the below locations for Wilds of Eldraine:

  • Set Boosters
    • Potential Slot: 1 token, ad card, or card from The List (with 25% of Set Booster packs containing a card from The List)
  • Bundle
    • Can appear in Set Boosters in this product

 


TCGplayer Set Name: Art Series: Wilds of Eldraine

The Art Series cards for Wilds of Eldraine feature a full rendition of artwork from the set on the front, with the card information on the back. They can be found ONLY in the below locations:

  • Set Boosters: 
    • Guaranteed Slot: Art Card Slot (81 potential art cards)
    • 10% of the time, rather than a normal art card, you'll get one with a gold-stamped signature of the artist. Every art card exists in both its normal version and its signature version.
  • Bundle
    • Guaranteed at least 1 in every Set Booster in this product

 

TCGplayer Set Name: Promo Pack: Wilds of Eldraine

Cards for this promo pack will include:

  • One stamped rare/mythic from Wilds of Eldraine
    • Planeswalker symbol foil-stamped
    • Variant treatments will NOT be in promo packs
  • One stamped rare/mythic from a curated list (including Modern and Commander-focused cards)
    • There will be overlap with previous curated lists. Because of this overlap, we will only be adding the NEW promos to a set called Promo Pack: Wilds of Eldraine. This is because the cards are sorted into sets based on where the card could FIRST be located. As there is no difference between the versions that are in ALL previous Promo Packs, inventorying the items where they FIRST appear helps keep new items more orderly.
  • One Arena Promo card granting an in-game pack (Regional; Where Arena is not available, Wilds of Eldraine will be three cards.)
