Dragons of Tarkir is the 67th Magic expansion, and the third and last in the Khans of Tarkir block. It will be released March 27 , 2015.[1] Dragons of Tarkir is a large expansion.

Set details

Dragons of Tarkir is designed to be drafted with Fate Reforged but not with Khans of Tarkir [2]. Also, Dragons of Tarkir will not rotate out of Standard with Khans of Tarkir and Fate Reforged, but instead will rotate out with Magic Origins due to Standard's regulation changes.

Dragons of Tarkir contains 264 cards (5 less than Khans of Tarkir) and includes randomly inserted premium versions of all cards. Like the one from Scourge before, the expansion symbol of Dragons of Tarkir represents a dragon's head.

Storyline

After Sarkhan Vol has done his duty in the past, the story now returns to the present of Tarkir. But it seems that changing the past has produced some unexpected results. [3]

Marketing

Dragons of Tarkir will be sold in 16-card boosters (the 16th card being a marketing card), five intro packs, an event deck and a fat pack.

The Dragons of Tarkir prerelease takes place on March 21-22, 2015. As a special gimmick, each participating store will receive a Tarkir Dragonfury playing board with character pieces that stand upright on them. [4] The board is a Tarkir landscape, and the pieces can knocked down by a throw with a special spindown life counter, themed to the breath weapon of one of the five Tarkir dragonlords. Each piece has a point value on it, and the player gets points equal to the total number he or she knocks down. If the die ends up in the central circle, the score is doubled. Every player gets two rolls (resetting the board between each roll). Depending on the highest score, up to four alternate art promotional cards can be won: a land, a common, an uncommon and a rare dragon.
