Spoiler season for Modern Horizons has officially begun, which means it’s time to look at all the juicy cards set to release. Consisting of largely new cards, this Magic: The Gathering set will only be focusing on the Modern format. Any reprints will be from before 8th Edition, so don’t expect to see some of the pricier staples to make an appearance.
This is the first set to revolve solely around Modern without focusing on delivering a wealth of reprints. So far we already know that there will be full art Snow Lands along with a variety of returning mechanics such as Flashback, Storm, Hellbent, and Vanishing. We also know that Goblin Matron will be entering Modern for the first time, which will certainly give Goblin decks some needed power.
Below are the cards spoiled for May 20. We will update this post as new cards are revealed throughout the day.
1. Ice-Fang Coatl
Flash
Flying
When Ice-Fangh Coatl enters the battlefield, draw a card. Ice-Fang Coastl has deathtouch as long as you control at least three other snow permanents.
2. Prismatic Vista
Tap: Pay 1 life, Sacrifice Prismatic Vista: Search your library for a basic land card, put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle your library.
3. Flusterstorm (Buy-a-Box Promo)
Counter target instant or sorcery spell unless its controller pays 1 (colorless).
Storm (When you cast this spell, copt it for each spell cast before it this turn. You may choose new targets for the copies.)
4. Morophon, the Boundless
Changeling (This card is every creature type.)
As Morophon, the Boundless enters the battlefield, choose a creature type.
Spells of the chosen type you cast cost (White, Blue, Black, Red, Green) less to cast. This effect reduces only the amount of colored mana you pay.
Other creatures you control of the chosen type get +1/+1.
5. Force of Vigor
If it’s not your turn, you may exile a green card from your hand rather than pay this spell’s mana cost.
Destroy up to two target artifacts and/or enchantments.
6. Seasoned Pyromancer
When Seasoned Pyromancer enters the battlefield, discard two cards, then draw two cards. For each nonland card discarded this way, create a 1/1 red Elemental creature token.
(Three Colorless and two Red), Exile Seasoned Pyromancer from your graveyard: Create two 1/1 red Elemental creature tokens.
7. Fact or Fiction
Reveal the top five cards of your library. An opponent seperates those cards into two piles. Put one pile into your hand and the other into your graveyard.
8. Munitions Expert
Flash
When Munitions Expert enters the battlefield you may have it deal damage to rarget creature or planeswalker equal to the number of Goblins you control.
9. Undead Augar
Whenever Undead Augar or another Zombie you control dies, you draw a card and you lose 1 life.
