Every MTG Streets of New Capenna Limited archetype

Factions are returning to Magic: The Gathering Limited with the release of Streets of New Capenna, a three-color Shard set showcasing five crime families and five secondary two-color archetypes.

Unlike recent MTG Limited formats that contained factions (Strixhaven: School of Mages), the Streets of New Capenna (SNC) set highlights a total of five three-color factions instead of two colors. Each of the five main factions also has a new Magic mechanic designed specifically for each crime family on New Capenna. In addition to the five faction Limited archetypes, there are five two-color secondary archetypes. 

The five New Capenna three-color factions are the focus of the Limited format, showcasing several Mythic Rare and Rare cycles. Each three-color archetype within the SNC Limited format also contains an Uncommon legendary creature, an Uncommon henchman, and an Uncommon Charm. Secondary archetypes have a Rare, Uncommon, and Common Draft signpost, along with an Uncommon two-color noncreature spell.
