Unfinity is a booster-based card set for Magic: The Gathering. This is the fifth of the so-called Un-sets and is designed to be drafted. It is expected to be released on April 1, 2022.[4][5]
Set details
Unfinity is a top-down designed humorous set. It mixes retro-style science fiction with space circus, amusement park and carnival tropes.[4][6] External contractors like Seanbaby and members of long-time Magic content creators LoadingReadyRun contributed to the creative development of the set.[7]
Unfinity features science full-art space-themed lands: both basic lands ("spasic lands") and the Ravnica shock lands.[4][8]
Change to black border
Unlike previous Un-sets, Unfinity is black-bordered. Some of the cards will have an acorn-shaped holofoil stamp to replace the significance of silver borders.[5]
