The 10th Scarlet & Violet set has just been announced, and Team Rocket are blasting back onto the TCG scene in Destined Rivals! Releasing on the 30th of May, this set will be comprised of Japan's Hot Air Arena and The Glory of Team Rocket. This set was teased at Latin America's Gamescom event, which showed the Brazilian Portuguese logo and a selection of artwork.

As per any core set from Pokemon, we can expect the works - Booster boxes, Elite Trainer Boxes, Checklanes, 3-Pack Blisters and more. We also expect this set to be incredibly popular, especially as we're close to closing out the Scarlet & Violet era for the TCG to usher in Pokemon Legends Z-A and the return of Mega Pokemon.

We know that Destined Rivals is going to include Cynthia's Garchomp, Ethan's Ho-Oh, Giovanni's MewTwo and a selection of Team Rocket Executives and Grunts from the artwork, and can get an idea of what cards to expect with the trickling reveals from the two Japanese counterpart sets. Furthermore, we're likely to see cards included from the Japanese Marnie & Steven decks (despite them also releasing in English Language!)

The set description is as follows:

Pokémon Trainers, be on high alert! The nefarious Team Rocket is setting its latest plan into motion, and heroic Trainers are racing to stop it. Join forces with the likes of Cynthia and Garchomp ex, Ethan and Ho-Oh ex, or Arven and Mabosstiff ex… Or reconsider your loyalties and fight alongside Team Rocket’s Pokémon like Mewtwo ex—under the command of Giovanni! Choose a side, assemble your allies, and battle boldly in the Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Destined Rivals expansion!

Little else is known about the set at this moment in time, but stay tuned for more information surrounding Destined Rivals - and sign up to pre-orders on our site today!

Pokemon announces collaboration with LEGO!

For years fans of Pokemon and LEGO have dreamed of a collaboration between the two, the closest we got at any point were custom builds or the sets that MEGA had to offer. Well, in the past few minutes an official announcement has been made by The Pokemon Company has been released stating that in 2026 we will see LEGO Pokemon begin to hit the shelves!

They've been incredibly under wraps about this, with information trickling in that was first seen on Reddit this morning. This opens up so many avenues for both Pokemon and LEGO, with an abundance of sets that can be created from all 1000+ Pokemon to locations across all the Regions (such as Pokemon Centres, Gyms and iconic locations). The one thing we do know is that the first set to be released is likely going to be Pikachu, implied heavily by the imagery they've released so far.

Not only that, but as LEGO have released a multitude of LEGO-themed video games, does this mean that we'll see a LEGO Pokemon game in the future? Forget a Black & White remake, imagine the OG Pokemon games reinvented brick by digital brick! Both LEGO and Pokemon released a statement regarding their collaboration, which can be read below:

Julia Goldin, Chief Product & Marketing Officer of the LEGO Group, said: "We are thrilled to be working with a brand that has such a deep and passionate fanbase as Pokémon, partnering to give our joint audiences what they have been asking us for. We strongly believe that through the endless possibilities of LEGO play and the exciting adventures the world of Pokémon brings, this partnership will create a range of new possibilities for Trainers and builders alike.”

Gaku Susai, Chief Product and Experience Officer at The Pokémon Company International added: “The LEGO Group and Pokémon have strong shared values of imagination, creativity and fun, making this the perfect partnership to deliver unique, meaningful and engaging ways for Trainers to experience the Pokémon brand. Working with the best-in-class team at the LEGO Group and seeing their dedication and passion for the project has culminated in an innovative and groundbreaking collaboration that will surprise and delight fans. We cannot wait to see both LEGO fans and the Pokémon community’s reactions in 2026.”

It's shocking that this wasn't announced on Pokemon Day, as this would have made the 29th anniversary of the global hit a lot more impactful - but perhaps they are saving more reveals down the line for next year's Pokemon Day. Either way, as Total Cards are stockists of both LEGO and Pokemon, we are beyond excited to potentially be able to bring LEGO Pokemon to fans across the world.

Check back regularly for updates regarding this release, and in the meantime you can check out our LEGO and Pokemon TCG selection across our site!

Hey everyone,

First off, we want to wish you all a massive Merry Christmas from the entire team here at Total Cards! It’s been another jam-packed year filled with awesome releases, epic community events, spicy restocks and much more.

Looking back on the past twelve months, there are a few big highlights that stand out. We launched our brand-new website back in April, and the feedback about its speed and performance have been amazing. Things now run like clockwork and couldn't be better for the team, it allows us to better serve the community.

We’ve also introduced webuyany.cards, our dedicated buying service for bulk and sealed collections, helping you make space or clear out unwanted cards and turn these into cash or store credit.

We’ve also gone beyond our usual trading card offerings, bringing in LEGO sets for all you builders out there. Seeing our community embrace new passions and share their creative builds has been an absolute blast. 

We also joined Whatnot and have met some of the community through our streams. Spending time on our lives with everyone has been super fun and we’ve had a blast joining you guys every night for a show full of epic pulls, givvy’s and more!

Of course, it hasn’t been all smooth sailing. We’ve had some serious challenges with one of our UK suppliers, at times it feels like they aren’t quite as committed to looking after our community as we are. 

On top of that, we’re still working incredibly hard to recover from the break-in we faced last year, where over £1 million worth of stock was stolen, which comes just days after another company in our industry reported a similar break-in. It’s been tough and trying to get back on our feet comes with its challenges. Despite all the hurdles, we’re so proud of how far we’ve come this year, and we’re determined to keep pushing forward. We know 2025 is going to be the year we finally get ahead again!

With that we want to send a massive thank you to everyone who joined our streams, dropped us a comment on our socials, joined our discord, visited our in-store events, visited or website or watched any of our unboxing. Your passion for what we do is the reason we keep doing what we love. Whether it’s hosting tournaments, live pack openings, or just having a laugh together.

As we wind down for the holidays, we hope you’ll take some time to rest, crack open a few packs, or piece together a new LEGO set with loved ones. It’s the perfect way to recharge and enjoy the season before we head into an even more exciting new year.

From all of us at Total Cards, have a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year. We can’t wait to show you what we’ve been cooking up for 2025—trust us, it’s going to be nostalgic for sure! Don’t say we didn't warn you.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays,

Adrian Marsden

YuGiOh Blue-Eyes White Destiny Structure Deck Announced - Card List & Spoilers

The next Structure Deck from Yu-Gi-Oh!, and the 59th overall, has been announced by Konami. This deck will focus on the next chapter of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon strategy, aptly named Blue-Eyes White Destiny. It will bring back some reprints, and 5 brand new cards - with a chance of 3 cards in the Ultra Rare slot being Quarter Century Secret Rares instead! Let's go through what we know about this upcoming deck, releasing on the 6th of February 2025.

Deck Reception from Players

To start off, this deck got an overwhelmingly positive reception from players when it was announced. With the array of Structure Decks in existence, a lot of them have been hit or miss - but Blue-Eyes White Destiny seems to have hit the mark with a lot of players with many noting that this deck comes with a lot of reprinted staples.

With the Japanese card list out there already, and ours starting to trickle through, we're keeping an eye on those opinions to see if they change the closer we get to the release date.

The New Cards

Of course, we have to talk about the new cards. There are 5 new cards making their way into the game, predominantly themed around Blue-Eyes. They are named Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon, Neo Kaiser Sea Horse, Roar of the Blue-Eyed Dragons, Maiden of White and Wishes for Eyes of Blue. Some of these cards are differently named in the Japanese translation, with Wishes for Eyes of Blue being named Prayers for Eyes of Blue and Roar of the Blue-Eyed Dragons being named Roaring Descent of the Blue-Eyed Dragons.

Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon

This card is a Level 12 Synchro, and it isn't just a Synchro Monster either - it's a Synchro Monstrosity. Essentially, once per turn, this card can negate any effect activated by your opponent on the field. It also consumes the negated effect to gain 1000 ATK Points for the rest of the turn. It also shields your Graveyard from your opponent, preventing them from banishing any of the cards located there. And if it all goes upside down and your opponent overcomes Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon's 3500 ATK Points, you can Summon another LIGHT Dragon Monster from your Graveyard - such as Blue-Eyes White Dragon!

2+ Tuners + 1 non-Tuner "Blue-Eyes" monster Your opponent cannot banish cards from your GY. You can only use each of the following effects of "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon" once per turn. When a card or effect is activated on the field (Quick Effect): You can negate the activation, and if you do, this card gains 1000 ATK until the end of this turn. If this card is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can Special Summon 1 LIGHT Dragon monster from your GY, except "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon".

This card is pretty insane, and there are a few ways you can summon this out too so it has a lot of versatility.

Neo Kaiser Sea Horse

Shockingly, looks nothing like a sea horse - but this new Tuner is a Level 4 that gives you instant access to the tools you need. It will Special Summon itself from your hand, and adjusts the level of any Tuner (even itself) by +/- 1, giving you maximum flexibility for your next monster to Synchro Summon.

If you control " Blue-Eyes White Dragon ": You can Special Summon this card from your hand . You can target 1 LIGHT Tuner you control; increase or decrease its Level by 1. If this card is sent from the field to the GY : You can send 1 " Blue-Eyes " monster or 1 monster that mentions "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" from your Deck to the GY, except "Neo Kaiser Sea Horse". You can only use each effect of "Neo Kaiser Sea Horse" once per turn .

And it can access your Blue-Eyes monsters from your deck by sending them straight to your Graveyard, allowing easy revival.

Roar of the Blue-Eyed Dragons

A new Spell Card, Roar of the Blue-Eyed Dragons lets you Summon a Blue-Eyes White Dragon straight out of your Deck, Graveyard - or even banishment! Alternatively, if you already have one out on the field, you can summon any Blue-Eyes monster instead!

Special Summon 1 "Blue-Eyes" monster from your Deck, GY, or banishment in Defence Position, but you can only Special Summon "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" with this effect if you do not control it, also you cannot Special Summon from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn, except Dragon monsters. You can banish this card from your GY; Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters from your hand or field, including a "Blue-Eyes" monster. You can only use 1 "Roar of the Blue-Eyed Dragons" effect per turn, and only once that turn.

There's also a bonus Fusion Summon once it lands in the Graveyard. Don't forget, the Japanese translation for this is Roaring Descent of the Blue-Eyed Dragons, and is named Saga of the Blue-Eyed Dragons in the proxies below.

Maiden of White

On the front of the deck, alongside Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon, is Maiden of White. Another powerful Tuner, every time she is targeted (including by your own effects) you can Summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon or any Level 1 LIGHT Tuner from your Graveyard. Not to mention whenever you Summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon, you can Summon Maiden of White from your Graveyard. It's like they go hand in hand!

You can send this card from your hand or field to the GY ; place 1 " True Light " from your hand, Deck , or GY face-up in your Spell & Trap Zone . If you Special Summon " Blue-Eyes White Dragon " while this card is in your GY (except during the Damage Step ): You can Special Summon this card. When a card or effect is activated that targets this card on the field, or when this card is targeted for an attack ( Quick Effect ): You can Special Summon 1 "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" or 1 Level 1 LIGHT Tuner from your GY. You can only use each effect of "Maiden of White" once per turn.

Unlike most effects, Maiden of White never banishes herself after using this effect either, so it can be used continuously throughout your Duel!

Wishes for Eyes of Blue

The final brand-new card is named Wishes for Eyes of Blue (Prayers for Eyes of Blue in Japanese). This card another great way to Summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon, adding to the multitude of ways you can combine cards in this deck to get out your Blue-Eyes monsters!

Discard 1 card; add 1 Level 1 LIGHT Tuner and 1 Spell/Trap that mentions "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" from your Deck to your hand, except "Wishes for Eyes of Blue". You can banish this card from your GY, then target 1 "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" you control; equip 1 "Blue-Eyes" monster from your Extra Deck to it as an Equip Spell that gives it 400 ATK. You can only use each effect of "Wishes for Eyes of Blue" once per turn.

In essence, this card: Discards for cost, adds from Deck to hand, activates from your Graveyard, equips from your Extra Deck, and grants the effect to Equip a Spell Card. It's pretty insane.

The Card List

Below you can find the cards that have been revealed completely for the English edition of Blue-Eyes White Destiny, alongside the Japanese counterparts for the rest of what we hope will make up this deck.

Blue-Eyes White Destiny releases on the 6th of February 2025, and is available to pre-order from Total Cards for just £10.95!

Top 10 Most Playable Cards from Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Stellar Crown that you need!

10. Glass Trumpet

Who doesn't love Trainer cards that give you draw power? Say you've lost a couple of Pokemon with Energy Cards attached - it's somewhere no player wants to be. That's where Glass Trumpet comes in. This card, so long as you have Tera Pokemon in play and two Benched colourless Pokemon, will allow you to draw up to 2 Basic Energy cards from your discard pile!

You can only use this card if you have any Tera Pokemon in play.

Choose up to 2 of your Benched Colourless Pokemon and attach a Basic Energy card from your discard pile to each of them. With this card, you can start to ramp up your Benched Colourless Pokemon with Energy Cards you may have previously lost! This card can obviously have a pretty strong combo with certain Pokemon, so it's definitely worth a look.

9. Briar

Briar, who debuted in the Teal Mask DLC for the video game, is a Supporter card that can turn the tides and win you the game depending on certain circumstances. With an ability that is restricted by how many Prize cards your opponent has left, Briar can increase the amount of Prize cards you take.

You can use this card only if your opponent has exactly 2 Prize cards remaining.

During this turn, if your opponent's Active Pokemon is Knocked Out by damage from an attack used by your Tera Pokemon, take 1 more Prize card.

Combine this with any 2-Prize card Pokemon (which all Tera Pokemon are) and you could win the game or turn the tables on your opponent.

8. Noctowl

A card you can find within packs of Stellar Crown, or guarantee if you purchase an Elite Trainer Box, Noctowl has a pretty sweet buff if you have a Tera Pokemon deck. If you want free Trainer cards, then check out the ability Jewel Seeker:

(Ability) Jewel Seeker Once during your turn, when you play this Pokemon from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokemon, if you have any Tera Pokemon in play, you may search your deck for up to 2 Trainer cards, reveal them, and put them into your hand. Then, shuffle your deck.

[Colourless] [Colourless] Speed Wind - 60

Essentially, if you're evolving Hoothoot to Noctowl and you have Tera Pokemon in play, you'll get to search your deck unrestricted for any two Trainer Cards. This could really put you over the edge, and it's such an accessible card too!

7. Grand Tree

ACE SPEC cards have been making a huge comeback lately, and there's one card that really stands out to us in Stellar Crow: Grand Tree. This card is a Stadium Card that allows you to, in all essence, evolve your Pokemon twice. The downsides are that you must have a Basic Pokemon in play for at least one turn, but this is basic Pokemon rules so nothing new - and that each player benefits from this, so definitely something to consider when running this card.

Once during each player's turn, that player may search their deck for a Stage 1 Pokemon that evolves from 1 of their Basic Pokemon and put it onto that Pokemon to evolve it. If that Pokemon was evolved in this way, that player may search their deck for a Stage 2 Pokemon that evolves from that Pokemon and put it onto that Pokemon to evolve it. Then, that player shuffles their deck. (Players can't evolve a Basic Pokemon during their first turn or a Basic Pokemon that was put into play this turn.)

Though this card won't work particularly well with any Pokemon that have "play from hand" abilities, as these will not fire, its a card that offers consistency and allows you to cultivate the benefits turn after turn - so long as Grand Tree remains in play as the Active Stadium.

6. Galvantula ex

If you have Energy to spare, or have discard pile draw, who doesn't want to lock their opponent out of using beneficial Item cards? Galvantula ex does just that. Paying 1 Grass, 1 Electric and 1 Fighting Energy allows you to not only clobber your opponent's Active Pokemon for 180, but also triggers an ability that prevents them from playing any Item cards from their hand during their next turn.

[Electric][Colourless] Charged Web - 110+

If your opponent's Active Pokemon is a Pokemon ex or a Pokemon V, this attack does 110 more damage.

[Grass][Electric][Fighting] Fulgurite - 180

Discard all Energy from this Pokemon. During your opponent's next turn, they can't play any Item cards from their hand.

So long as you have a combo that allows you to recover that Energy from your discard pile, this card will be a powerful one to add to your deck with the added bonus of angering your opponent!

5. Joltik

You want Energy?! You like electrified spiders?! Then why don't you have Joltik in your deck! Joltik can not only possibly benefit you when preparing to whip out that Galvantula ex card, but it also benefits your other Pokemon as you can draw 4 Energy from your deck at the cost of 1 Colourless Energy!

[Colourless] Jolting Charge

Search your deck for up to 2 Basic Grass Energy cards and up to 2 Basic Electric Energy cards and attach them to your Pokemon in any way you like. Then, shuffle your deck.

At a low cost for that Energy draw, and a powerful Stage 1 Pokemon to evolve into, why wouldn't you want to pick up this adorable arachnid?

4. Lacey

Albeit not the most powerful card that Stellar Crown has to offer, it's arguably one of the most popular. Lacey, particularly the SAR, allows you to essentially half-mulligan. We say half-mulligan, as you'll only get to redraw 4 cards unless certain conditions are met.

Shuffle your hand into your deck. Then, draw 4 cards. If your opponent has 3 or fewer Prize cards remaining, draw 8 cards instead.

If you're nearing the end of the game and find your hand just...sucks...Lacey will allow you to ditch those cards back into your deck and draw 4 more - 8 if your opponent is absolutely demolishing you. This could really turn the tide for you, though it has limited competitive potential. That doesn't matter though, the artwork alone is a big reason to pick this up!

3. Zeraora

This card may be in this list on artwork alone. The attack Zeraora offers isn't too bad, you pay 1 Electric and 1 Colourless to use Combat Thunder which does 20+ damage. Sounds measly, but if your opponent has a stacked bench you could very well get 120 damage out very quickly.

[Electric][Colourless] Combat Thunder - 20+

This attack does 20 more damage or each of your opponent's Benched Pokemon.

The artwork though...the colour and vibrancy, mixed with the action-packed depiction of Zeraora, it's definitely a card to pick up for your collection! But if you have the next card, Zeraora could definitely be much more beneficial...

2. Area Zero Underdepths

Area Zero Underdepths. The Hyper Rare card boasts a big reason to pick this up - but the ability it offers just bolsters that even more! A stadium that will increase your benched Pokemon to 8 so long as you have a Tera Pokemon in play.

Each player who has any Tera Pokemon in play can have up to 8 Pokemon on their Bench.

If a player no longer has any Tera Pokemon in play, that player discards Pokemon from their bench until they have 5. When this card leaves play, both players discard Pokemon from their Bench until they have 5, and the player who played this card discards first.

It's definitely important to keep an eye on your Tera Pokemon with this stadium out, especially if you find your opponent is hammering you with damage. But you can combine this with a bunch of different cards, such as Zeraora who we've slotted in at number 3.

1. Terapagos ex

This is easily the most sought-after card in the set. The Special Illustration Rare of Terapagos ex is pretty much the most expensive card, and probably the hardest to pull. Combine this with Area Zero Underdepths, and you've got a pretty killer Tera Pokemon in play.

[Colourless][Colourless] Unified Beatdown - 30 x

If you go second, you can't use this attack during your first turn. This attack does 30 damage for each of your Benched Pokemon.

[Grass][Water][Electric] Crown Opal - 180

During your opponent's next turn, prevent all damage done to this Pokemon by attacks from Basic non Colourless Pokemon.

Unified Beatdown is insane if you have 8 Benched Pokemon, racking up 240 damage - 150 if you have the standard 50. Not to mention Crown Opal allows you to prevent incoming damage during your opponent's next turn if there attacking with a Basic non Colourless Pokemon. Terapagos ex is pretty insane, in looks and power alike.

This concludes our Top 10 list of the best cards from Stellar Crown. Did you agree with our list? Or did you have a different idea? Let us know down below!

Magic the Gathering is really trying to get us to do maths during our games…

[total-cards]

The Digimon Card Game had originated as part of the Digimon franchise, beginning in Japan in 1997. The franchise started with the release of Digital Monsters, a range of virtual pets aimed at boys in response to the popularity of Tamagotchi. Given the popularity of these virtual pets, Bandai then expanded Digimon into various media such as anime, manga, video games and a card game.

The first version of the game, named the Digital Monster Card Game, released in Japan in 1999 and lasted until 2005. The game worked similarly to the Digital Pets, where Tamers could battle each other. We've even seen elements of this in one of the more recent sets the Classic Collection, which draws inspiration for the design and mechanics of the cards from the card game's origins. We have even seen the card game featured in the anime, with Digimon Tamers focusing on the existence of the Digimon Card Game in "our world" yet the cards are more than they seem. But what is Digimon Liberator?

Digimon Liberator is a webcomic set in the future, where the Digimon Card Game has evolved into a fully immersive game allowing players to enjoy card battles in a metaverse space. Think Sword Art Online, but with Digimon. The story is entirely free to read online, and sets the stage for an intense story following Shoto Kazama and his journey through this digital world to discover the secrets from deep within.

As the Digimon Card Game in the world of Digimon Liberator is the same one we experience, of course that means we get a set! Digimon Liberator includes characters from the webcomic and their partner Digimon; Zephagamon & Shoto Kazama, Cendrillmon & Arisa Kinosaki, and HeavyMetaldramon & Yuuki. Not only that, but you will also find a new keyword <Iceclad>.

<Iceclad> is a new keyword effect that has excellent affinity with "trash a digivolution card" effects in blue decks!

Instead of DP, the Digimon with more digivolution cards will win battles with non-Security Digimon!

Use this to counter your opponent's Digimon with high DP!

There are plenty of cards to be sought after in Digimon Liberator, such as the Mega Digimon special cards, and special alternate designs. You'll also receive a random alt-art card in the Legend Pack 2024, a booster pack box-topper included inside the booster box.

Digimon Liberator adds a new and unique twist on the existing card game, incorporating it once again into engaging media and spanning an Extra Booster for players to utilise within their decks.

Releasing on Friday 13th September, you can pre-order your packs from our site for as low as £3.45 for a booster pack, and £76.95 for a booster box!

Karlach's Rage has been unleashed! Final cards from Dungeons & Dragons Secret Lair Super Drop REVEALED!

The final cards from the Dungeons & Dragons x Secret Lair Super Drop have been revealed! On Thursday & Friday last week, news outlets gave us a peek at the remaining cards for Karlach's Rage and what to expect with Death is in the Eye of the Beholder II (it's more beholders, who'd have guessed!)

You can check out the reveals down below, but we'll quickly dive into those long-awaited Karlach cards:

Stranglehold

Enchantment

Your opponents can't search libraries.

If an opponent would begin an extra turn, that player skips that turn instead.

"Let's cook with fire, baby."

This card. Wow. Stranglehold is going to be such a powerful card against decks that search libraries. To prevent all your opponents from doing this? You would hold the battlefield for as long as this card is present. Definitely a must for red-decks.

City on Fire

Enchantment

Convoke

If a source you control would deal damage to a permanent or player, it deals tripe that damage instead.

"Avernus was never my home...."

This card truly channels Karlach's undeniable rage. Triple damage against a permanent or player - imagine combining this with a creature with Trample and a high Power/Toughness? Not only that, but it has Convoke too.

Overall, if you're a MTG fan or a Dungeons & Dragons fan, you might want to pick this set up! It becomes available on August 27th, so be sure to get in line as these will likely sell out fast!

JUST ANNOUNCED: Even More Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Secret Lair Super Drop cards revealed!

Even more Secret Lair cards have been revealed for the Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary! This time we get to see what Death in the Eye of the Beholder I has in store for us. There's a strong focus on Blue and Black mana in this set, with a board wipe standing proud in Beholder's Petrification Ray which makes total sense if you're a Dungeons & Dragons player.

Dungeons & Dragons

Petrification Ray: The targeted creature must make a DC (8+Spellcasting Ability+Proficiency Bonus) Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature begins to turn to stone and is restrained. It must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn. On a success, the effect ends. On a failure, the creature is petrified until freed by the greater restoration spell or other magic.

Magic the Gathering

Destroy all creatures. For each nontoken creature destroyed this way, you create a tapped Treasure token.

The Beholder's Petrification Ray sorcery will be massive against Green decks that like to pump out as many creatures as possible, as quickly as possible. Keep in mind this spell will also affect you, so if you find yourself struggling with getting creatures out onto the battlefield and you have this card in your hand, casting it may be as a benefit to you as everyone has to board wipe. Imagine the devastation, especially going against a friend playing a card like Ambush Commander, Living Lands, or Nature's Revolt where lands are considered creatures (speaking in a non-tournament sense as these cards are not Standard Legal).

REVEALED: Astarion Secret Lair cards, Original Adventure arts, and more for Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary!

Over the past few days, we've seen some exclusive looks at what's to come in two of the Dungeons & Dragons x Secret Lair Super Drop, particularly for Astarion and An Exhibition of Adventure.

Within An Exhibition of Adventure you will find some OG artwork of a Beholder, the Player's Handbook and the Basic Red Dragon! If you've been a long-time fan of Dungeons & Dragons, and you're a Magic Player, perhaps this is definitely a set to pick up.
