Jumpstart - Releases 7/17/20
Mix. Match. Mayhem. Jumpstart is fast Magic for your game night. Easy to learn, hilariously replayable.
Jumpstart is a new supplemental set that lets players skip the entire deck-building process. That's right, no more painstaking decisions on what to cut, or what to include. You just open two packs, smash 'em together and you're ready to play!
Here are the nitty-gritty details:
Each booster contains 20 cards centered on a theme. What theme each booster contains is randomized, but each themed 20 cards will be sealed inside the pack and labeled.
One in three boosters includes an extra rare.
It's loaded with reprints—almost 500!
Jumpstart introduces 37 new cards to the game. These will not be Standard-, Pioneer-, or Modern-legal cards. They are legal in Legacy, Vintage, and Commander.
It's closely tied to Core Set 2021—they share a lot of content and release near one another—but Jumpstart is a stand-alone product.
All cards are legal in Eternal formats (Legacy, Vintage, and Commander)
Every pack includes one basic land with art that matches the pack's theme. A few of them use thematically appropriate lands from M21, but most of them use brand-new themed land art created for Jumpstart.
Release date is scheduled for 7/17/20. Full decklists for the different themes can be found at https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/feature/jumpstart-decklists-2020-06-18.
