a screen shot of the Libby app with Strixhaven: Omens of Chaos on the page, ready to be checked out
AHAH!
My push for my local library system to get digital & audiobook copies through Libby worked!
And I’ll read it from the library too! Then I’ll listen to it!!
It’s what Lorehold would want, I just know it. #WOTCStaff
Off the top of my head, I’d expect it to be simultaneous, though looking at the devour rules, there may be some ambiguity that needs to be cleaned up. #WotCstaff
Game design made the mechanics on these cards parallels of each other, and we took it as an opportunity to tell a small two card story of rivals to... I mean I like to think they are dating now :D

Card art of Blech, Loafin Pest from Secrets of Strixhaven. Card art shows a large pudgy pest creature lounging on a branch. Blech has green skin with magenta stripe down his back and many spike and claws. He is surrounded by other critters including a spider, bats and a snake.
Blex was tragically one of the many casualties of the Phyrexian invasion. But at least he left some offspring to carry on his memory.

Because all replacement effects need to exist before the event occurs (in this case the event is entering), it doesn’t count creatures that will be devoured as that creature is entering. #WotCstaff

It refers to the first card you draw during the draw step, whether that's the one provided by the turn-based action or one that happens due to a replacement effect. You'll end up drawing three. Thought Reflection applies to the initial draw, then Ageless Insight applies to the 2nd one. #WotCstaff
Owl see you there? #MCVegas #WotCstaff
It is expressly not the intent. The card doesn’t have to stay in exile. In some unusual cases (mostly, you’re playing Oathbreaker), the card doesn’t have to go to exile at all. #WotCstaff

Nope. The delayed triggered ability is not contingent on the card staying in exile (or, as we've seen, even making it to exile in the first place). #WotCstaff
#MTGStrixhaven Omens of Chaos is out today! What I love about this book is that it’s not only an incredible story of magic, intrigue, and the power of friendship, but also an excellent primer on the Multiverse. If you've never read Magic fiction before, this is the perfect place to start. #wotcstaff
I was incorrect on WeeklyMTG today--there are more Mystical Archive cards still to be revealed! #wotcstaff
Obviously he’s going into Lorehold Me Closer

Existential dread, confronting the realities of graduation and an impending apocalypse. And a smidge of body horror.

Today’s #mtgtrivia question:
Saviors of Kamigawa had a “hand size matters” theme. What was R&D’s nickname for it (that didn’t appear on cards)?
#WotCStaff
Answer to yesterday’s #mtgtrivia question:
Umezawa’s Jitte. Originally, one of the abilities produced mana, and we discovered in editing that the rules wouldn’t allow it, so it was changed to the -1/-1 ability.
