Wizards of the Coast continues to expand its Showcase frame and ink treatments with the tabletop launch of Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty (NEO) on Feb. 18. Included in the lineup of alternate art are special frames for ninjas and samurai, along with the return of foil-etching. The NEO set highlights a mashup between modernity and tradition and that flavor is carried over into all the Showcase style frames and treatments within the set. 

Here are the nine NEO Showcase frames and treatments per WotC. 

NEO Ukiyo-e basic lands

Ukiyo-e is a Japanese woodblock print and painting style of art. There are a total of 10 basic lands in NEO that are based on the Ukiyo-e style, two for each mana color. Every Ukiyo-e basic land is in Japanese, no matter what region of the world you open them in. 

The Ukiyo-e lands are found in set and Draft booster packs, with only a foil version found in collector booster packs. One-third of all Draft and set boosters contain a Ukiyo-e land. And one-third of them in set booster packs are foil. Every collector booster contains a foil Ukiyo-e land.
