Khans of Tarkir intro packs will be available at your local store starting on the prerelease and then as long as supplies last. Each clan’s pack include a alternate art rare and are ready for Open Dueling.
You slide this token over a face-down card to remind everyone what the card represents.
We added the cards associated with the tokens, at least all the ones that were previewed so far.
All the Khans of Tarkir promo have been announced. The buy-a-box promo Rattleclaw Mystic looks very nice and so does the Game day top 8 promo Utter end. I wouldn’t mind picking up one of each of these promos for my collections. Game Day promos will be available at the event, each participant gets a Heir of the Wilds. Game day top 8 also receive a Utter End while the Champion also gets the Playmat. Rattleclaw mystic you should get with a box depending how the local gaming store (LGS) distributes them, like some only give one per case (6 boxes). The final promo is the Dragon Throne of Tarkir which you can get at Launch on the 26 sept at any participating LGS.
Good luck at your events! May you never have to mulligan and all your packs give you mythic rares.
