The Magic: The Gathering Secret Lair Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop will be released in August 2024, bringing five new sets to market for fans to purchase if they’re able to beat the queues and get their orders in early.
Secret Lair sets are always exciting because they breathe new life into old MTG cards we’ve either forgotten about or are so commonplace in decks that you just don’t think about them like you do the intriguing cards in every new base set. The Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop is, as the name suggests, a celebration of the 50th anniversary of D&D and will bring a colš§ølection of cards to the table that yoš¹u can use in your decks while admiring their nostalgic artwork.
When is the release date for the MTG Secret Lair Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop?
The release date for the MTG Secret Lair Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop is August 27, 2024. At the time of writing, I don’t have an exact time for the release but I will add one as soon as it’s revealed. This set will be one of the most highly anticipated of the year, so I suggest you keep an eye on the time that day and ensure you’re available so you don’t miss out on getting the Drops you’re after.
All cards and sets in the MTG Secret Lair Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop
Below, I’ve listed every set in the MTG Secret Lair Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop and the cards that come with those sets. There are five in total, but each card is being revealed slowly over time, so I don’t have all the details at the time of writing. I’ll add each new card to the set it’s part of as and when they’re revealed.
Set 1: Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: An Exhibition of Adventure
No cards that I know of have been revealed for this set at the time of writing. However, the name suggests it will be a showcase of artwork that looks at all of D&D instead of one particular area of the TTRPG.
Set 2: Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: Astarion’s Thirst
At the time of writing, it looks like only one card for this set has been revealed. It focuses on Astarion from Baldur’s Gate 3, who is, admittedly, a grš·eat character to build a set around.
- Astarion, the Decadent: 4/4 Legendary Creature, Vampire Elf Rogue with Deathtouch and Lifelink. At the beginning of your end step, choose one:
- Feed: Target opponent loses life equal to the amount of life they lost this turn.
- Friends: You gain life equal to the amount of life you gained this turn.
Set 3: Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: Karlach’s Rage
This set focuses on Karlach, also of Baldur’s Gate 3. She has one of tšhe most interesting storylinesš³, so I suspect that will come into play with these cards.
- Karlach, Fury of Avernus: A 5/4 Legendary Creature, Tiefling Barbarian. Whenever you attack, if it’s the first combat phase of the turn, untap all attacking creatures. They gain first strike until end of turn. After this phase, there is an additional combat phase. Choose a Background (I believe Backgrounds will be other cards in the set).
Set 4: Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: Death is in the Eyes of the Beholder I
No cards have been revealed that might be in this set just yet. A Beholder is a multi-eyed creature in D&D loreāØ, so this set could consist of various monsters you battle in the TTRPG.
Set 5: Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: Death is in the Eyes of the Beholder II
As with the set above, we have no cards that might be part of this set that have been revealed just yet. I do believe they’ll be creatures of characters from D&D‘s past, though.
Where to buy the MTG Secret Lair Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop
You can purchase the MTG Secret Lair Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop from the . Stock will be limited because now all Secret Lairs are limited print runs instead of printed to order. So, if you want to make sure you get a copy of this Superdrop, you’ll need to sign up for the newsletter to be alerted when it goes live.
I really do recommend trying to change up your day on August 27, 2024 so that you can drop everything, head to the website, and sit in a queue to get your pre-orders in. Recently, the situation with Secret Lairs has been a mess, and fans are incredibly cross that they haven’t been able to buy the sets they want due to scalpers bulk buying them at the front of queues. You’ll only have a fighting chance of getting a set if you have nothing else to do and get in there early.
