La carte Strider, Ranger of the North, de l'édition The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth, présente une erreur d'impression dans sa version française : il est écrit "la créature équipée gagne +1/+1" au lieu de "la créature ciblée gagne +1/+1".

As with every set, the Set Design team puts together a list of the main draft archetypes. Normally, we default to the ten two-color pairs, and LTR doesn't deviate from that. Here's what each color pair is up to:
(Note: I'm going to use "typal" a few times in this section. That's an internal way that we refer to cards that care about creature type.)
White-Blue: This archetype is a midrange deck often using evasion as the win condition with a "draw a second card" theme.
Blue-Black: This archetype is a controlling amass deck. It has a milling aspect, allowing you to mill yourself for gain or the opponent to win. It also has a light Human typal element.
Black-Red: This archetype is an aggressive amass deck. It has a sacrifice component as well as an Orc and Goblin (as a batch) typal element.
Red-Green: This archetype is a ramp "power matters" deck pairing larger red creatures with green Treefolk. It also dips into the wild creature element of the set.
Green-White: This archetype is an aggressive Hobbit deck that makes use of Food tokens.
White-Black: This archetype is a "legendary creatures matter" deck that makes use of the Ring tempts you mechanic. It has more legendary creatures and a sacrifice component. The Ring helps you splash a bit more than other archetypes.
Blue-Red: This archetype leans on a Wizards theme and has an "instants and sorceries matter" center. It's a control archetype that rewards you for casting a lot of spells.
Black-Green: This archetype has a life and death theme. It sacrifices and regrows cards. It's the other archetype that makes major use of Food tokens.
Red-White: This archetype is a go-wide Humans deck. It ranges from aggro to midrange depending on what cards you draft.
Green-Blue: This archetype is a tempo Elf deck. It has some Elf typal elements and rewards for scrying.

Sur l'illustration originale de Kev Walker pour la carte Erg Raiders, de l'édition Masters 25, il y avait un éclat de lumière rajouté numériquement. Comme l'artiste n'arrivait pas à décider si la peinture était meilleure avec ou sans, il a laissé le choix à Wizards of the Coast.

Before you ask, yes, the lensflare was added digitally. I couldnt decide whether the painting was better with or without, so I left the choice to Wizards of the Coast.

Source (Modal Double-Faced Cards (MDFCs) - Permanents/Spells - "The final category is interestingly what we had planned to do with the MDFCs in the first place—mix instants and sorceries with a permanent so you can squeeze more instants and sorceries into your deck. Each was designed to work synergistically in the same deck. There is a six-card cycle at rare, with each college getting one MDFC, as well as a colorless one. [...]")

Source (23. Beast Wishes - "Beast in Show is another card with multiple pieces of art. The joke of this card is about how we use the creature type Beast to reference such a wide array of creatures. The four art pieces show a baloth, a gnarlid, a thragtusk, and a tyrranax. The flavor text does a fun job of talking about each one in dog show–style language.")

Heritage Druid ✨ for the MTG 30th Anniversary Countdown Kit Secret Lair. AD Tom Jenkot.
This one has some fun elements to it, so here's a 🧵 about it:
***
Since this Secret Lair was celebrating Magic's 30th anniversary, and this card has only ever had the one piece of artwork, I wanted to pay tribute to the original by Larry MacDougall. So I kept the composition and costuming details similar, as well as the idea of the elf spirits.
***
The tiny spirits are also homages to previous cards. I can't take credit for this idea; @Alexstoneart (who is a walking Magic encyclopedia) casually suggested it the day before the piece was due 🤦🏻‍♀️ But I loved the idea and so did my AD, so we ran with it.
***
*Obviously* I had to pay tribute to Rebecca Guay's Elvish Piper, maybe one of my favourite pieces of Magic art. But see if you can spot all the other ones too :)
