From Commander Precons and the return of Planechase to Multiverse legends in MOM Limited formats, here are the first March of the Machine spoilers that dropped at MagicCon Philadelphia.
Multiverse Legends
Similar to previous MTG Limited formats through sets like BRO and STX, the Multiverse Legend cards in MOM are not Standard-legal. They are legal to play in both Limited formats, Draft and Sealed, along with other formats like Commander and Legacy.
Each Multiverse Legend shows a pairing of legendary creatures from the same Magic plane. Previous stats and abilities are combined in one card that can have a major impact on the board state.
Dual lands
A cycle of 10 dual lands with a rarity of Common is included in the MOM set, showcasing landscapes from around the Magic Multiverse that have been corrupted by the Phyrexian invasion.
Commander Precon decks
A total of five preconstructed Commander decks will release with the launch of MOM. Each Commander Precon comes with five different Plane cards (five new and five reprints).Â
Other MOM spoilers
The MOM set is packed with powerful cards and reprints that show off various planes and creatures from a variety of Magic planes in the Multiverse. Cards like Breach the Multiverse will likely become a Commander staple. Chandra returns as the first planeswalker revealed for the MOM set and Heliod the God returns as a legendary Enchantment creature to the Standard format.
March of the Machine: The Aftermath spoilers
The March of the Machine: The Aftermath set is an epilogue non-Standard legal set that only contains a total of 50 cards with five cards in each booster pack.
Yuta Takahashi card reveal
World Champion Yuta Takahashi revealed the card that he got to design, a bonus of becoming a Magic World Champion. Faerie Mastermind is a faerie rogue with Flash and Flying that punishes opponents for drawing a second card during their turn.
