Magic: The Gathering fans are still getting over Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but there’s even more cardboard on the horizon across the Spring and Summer.
Secrets of Strixhaven, the year’s third set, will take players back to a beloved location from Magic’s past, and it’s already seeing a decent discount on the Draft Night bundle – which includes one of those much sought-after Collector Boosters (which are also out of stock right now online!).
Preorders for Secrets of Strixhaven's Draft Night Box would normally cost $103.50, but it’s down to $89.99 at Amazon right now – 13% off overall.
It's not the best discount in the world, but it is admittedly much better than $100+. Plus, given Amazon’s preorder price guarantee, if it drops further, you’ll save even more.
The box itself contains 12 Play Boosters, with up to four players able to draft 40-card decks from their contents (as well as the 90 Basic Lands included).
New for Strixhaven are new Mystical Archive cards, with one Instant or Sorcery spell from Magic’s history given fresh artwork and showcase frames. There’s one in each Play Booster.
Also included is a Collector Booster, which can be wagered as a prize for your Draft Night competition or opened by whoever picked up the box in the first place. These have 3 or 4 Mystical Archive cards alongside a bunch of alternative art treatments.
It’s not just the Secrets of Strixhaven Draft Night box that’s discounted, either. The current set, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, has its own Draft Night boxed set.
That box has identical contents, but whereas its list price was $119.99, it’s now available for $87.35. That’s a 27% discount – cowabunga.
