Seattle, WA – Wizards of the Coast is generating buzz with the reveal of another high-value reprint in its upcoming Secret Lair drop, “An Encyclopedia of Magic.” This Countdown Kit, previously unveiled at MagicCon: Atlanta, features 26 unique reprints, each starting with a different letter of the alphabet. While the $199.99 price tag has raised eyebrows, the inclusion of highly sought-after cards like Wasteland and now Urza’s Saga is generating excitement within the Magic: The Gathering community.

The reveal of Urza’s Saga came via a sneak peek on the MTG Secret Lair Twitter page, showcasing the new artwork for the powerful land. Since its debut in Modern Horizons 2, Urza’s Saga has become a cornerstone card across multiple formats, known for its ability to tutor game-winning artifacts and generate powerful Construct tokens. Its versatility has made it a staple in decks ranging from Modern’s Amulet Titan and Hammer Time to Legacy’s Nadu, Winged Wisdom variants. The card’s value has only increased after a recent rules update, making it even more resilient.

Currently, Urza’s Saga boasts a market value of approximately $32 for a near-mint copy. While the inclusion of such a valuable card is exciting for players, some are concerned about the “limited quantities” of the Secret Lair. Fears of scalpers dominating the market and driving up the secondary market price of this specific Urza’s Saga variant are circulating within the community.

Despite these concerns, the inclusion of Urza’s Saga, especially given the limited options for cards beginning with the letter “U,” is being lauded as a strategic choice by Wizards.

“An Encyclopedia of Magic” goes on sale November 3rd on the Secret Lair website. Players hoping to acquire this valuable reprint should mark their calendars and prepare for a potentially competitive purchase.
