Magic The Gathering s The Brothers War expansion spoilers begin Urza Mishra s Foundry and more
Magic: The Gathering's The Brothers' War expansion spoilers begin - Urza, Mishra's Foundry, and more Comment Share Magic: The Gathering's upcoming expansion, The Brothers' War, promises to be interesting (Image via Wizards of the Coast) While the complete spoiler season won’t begin until later in October, Magic: The Gathering’s The Brothers’ War saw some truly interesting reveals yesterday. A teaser was held for the upcoming expansion, which will star the two artificer brothers, Urza and Mishra. Quite a few lore characters will arrive in card form for this set as well. Many of these characters took sides between the two brothers as their war ravaged the land. Their war ultimately led to the Ice Age, which altered the world of Dominaria in ways that would take years to undo. What can players expect from The Brothers’ War in Magic: The Gathering? Several very interesting cards have been revealed.
mtgpics.com/card?ref=tbw378Mishra's Foundry #MTG mtgpics.com/card?ref=tbw378 https://t.co/a3mWwhHetQ A particularly interesting card recently showed up, Mishra’s Foundry. This is essentially a slightly less powerful version of Mishra’s Foundry and is a colorless land that can become a creature. If you have more than one in play, you can use the others to buff the Assembly Worker creature that Mishra’s Foundry becomes. It only costs two mana to turn it into an artifact creature, making it an incredibly valuable part of any artifact-related strategy. Thanks to this low cost, it’s quite effective in virtually any deck. Gavin Verhey@GavinVerheyI was the lead final designer for #MTGBro Commander, along with @imdanielholt! With Brothers' War and two Commander decks, it was pretty clear what we should do: Urza and Mishra. And... the ENTIRE decks are old border! Reprints and all.

Check this out, just revealed on WeeklyMTG: https://t.co/BxE3jqQcRB A pair of Commander decks will also be arriving in this expansion, an Esper deck built around Urza (Urza Chief Artificer), and a Grixis deck built around Mishra (Mishra Eminent One). Both of these decks will feature 100 cards, all of which will have old-style borders, giving them a very retro and classic look. Old-school Magic: The Gathering fans will undoubtedly love seeing this style of card again. Fear not, though, the cards will also be available in the modern border style for those that don’t care for the old esthetics of Magic: The Gathering Cards. While the entire decklists aren’t available yet, it has been revealed that some older cards like Skullclamp were reprinted for the Commander decks.

Teasers for Magic The Gathering s next expansion The Brothers War revealed
The Brothers’ War will most likely be a very artifact-focused expansion. Considering it stars a pair of brother artificers battling one another, players can expect a number of new and returning artifacts in the set.

Skullclamp
Mana Value: 1Type: Artifact - EquipmentRarity: UncommonKeyword: Equip - 1First Ability: Equipped creature gets +1/-1Second Ability: Whenever equipped creature dies, draw two cards Perhaps the most important cards in these decks are the commanders, though. Urza is a Blue/White/Black legendary in Magic: The Gathering, and Mishra is a Black/Red/Blue. Urza has been confirmed to be different from his The Brothers’ War counterpart, so Mishra likely will be as well.Urza Chief Artificer
Mana Value: 3WUBType: Legendary Creature - Human ArtificerRarity: Mythic RareKeyword: Affinity for artifact creatures (This spell costs 1 less to cast for each artifact creature you control)Stats: 4 power, 5 toughnessFirst Ability: Artifact creatures you control have menaceSecond Ability: At the beginning of your end step, create a 0/0 colorless Construct artifact creature token with “This creature gets +1/+1 for each artifact you control.” Urza is easy to put into play, and can quickly allow you to start overrunning other players with bigger and bigger artifacts while playing control spells to keep command of the board. And then, there’s his angry brother, Mishra. Randy Vargas@VargasNiHey, my boy is out already,"Mishra Eminent One"

Mishra Eminent One
Mana Value: 2UBRType: Legendary Creature - Human ArtificerRarity: Mythic RareStats: 5 power, 4 toughnessFirst Ability: At the beginning of combat on your turn, create a token that’s a copy of the target noncreature artifact you control, except its name is Mishra’s Warform, and it’s a 4/4 Construct artifact creature, in addition to its other types. It gains haste until the end of the turn. Sacrifice it at the beginning of the next end step. Mishra will always have an attacker ready in Magic: The Gathering, as long as he has at least 1 non-creature artifact in play. Considering the theme of this expansion, that’s going to be an incredibly easy ask for Mishra. Unfortunately, he doesn’t feel quite as strong as his brother, but that could change as we learn more about the deck he’s in.
