And now… for something completely different. Wizards of the Coast recently announced that its next Secret Lair launch for Magic: The Gathering will feature cards inspired by Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The cards from the two-volume set draw from the most memorable quotes and moments from the medieval classic, including “Bring Out Your Dead,” “‘Tis But a Scratch,” and “Tim the Enchanter.”
In total, the Secret Lair drop will include 10 cards split across two volumes. Both volumes will be available in limited quantities for a limited time exclusively from MagicSecretLair.com starting Monday, July 29 at 9 a.m. PST, and lasting through Sunday, Aug. 18 at 11:59 p.m. PST. Below, we’ve provided a list of all the cards included in both volumes and linked out to their proxies on Gatherer, the official MTG database.
