Wizards of the Coast has officially revealed that the second Magic: The Gathering and Hatsune Miku collaboration in the MTG Secret Lair × Hatsune Miku: Digital Sensation drop. the small set will only be available for a limited time but packs a real punch.
The MTG Secret Lair × Hatsune Miku: Digital Sensation is comprised of six new cards you can add to your decks and collections. They all feature the digital pop sensation in beautifully hand-crafted art that encapsulates her personality and music alongside mechanics on cards that you’ll find useful enough to use in a range of deck types. Of course, getting these just because they’re pretty is just fine and is what I’ll probably be doing.
Every card in the MTG Secret Lair × Hatsune Miku: Digital Sensation drop
Below, I’ve listed every card in the MTG Secret Lair × Hatsune Miku: Digital Sensation drop. With each one, I’ve included the mechanics of the cards so you have an idea of what they do, even if all you’re buying them for is to be sleeved and stored or just to ensure you have this gorgeous artwork in your possession.
Thespian’s Stage
Thespian’s Stage is a colorless land card that allows you to use one colorless Mana. Tapping the card allows it to become a copy of another land card, except it will retain its ability. It’s not going to be hugely powerful, but it might make an impact.
Sol Ring
Look, we all know what Sol ring is and does. This card has the prettiest art of any variation by far, though. This artifact card will add two colorless mana, effectively boosting you to turn three. Its usefulness varies depending on who you speak to.
Song of Creation
Song of Creation is my favorite card in this set, based purely on artwork. It lets you play an additional land on each of your turns. Whenever you cast a spell, you’ll draw two cards, but you’ll need to discard your hand at the beginning of your end step. You’ve got to play carefully with this card. Use it, then dump it as soon as you don’t need it.
Miku, Child of Song
This card is a pretty powerful 6/6 legendary creature, but it takes a lot of mana to play. It has Trample, and when it dies, you destroy all nonland permanents. As a bonus, those nonland permanents can’t be regenerated, just to add extra insult to injury.
Chord of Calling
Chord of Calling has Convoke and allows you to search your library for a creature card with mana value X or less, with X being the card’s power. When you get that card, put it into the battlefield and then shuffle. A great way to quickly grab a key card for our strategy.
Diabolic Tutor
Finally, we have Diabolic Tutor. This card lets you search your library for a card, put that card into your hand, and then shuffle. It’s potentially incredibly powerful, depending on your strategy. I can think of more than a few uses for it, and most of them blend with Sol Ring.
