Mechanics

Meld and Melded

This card can flip when the right conditions are met.

Meld hint

This card Melds when you cast its associated card (displayed on the card text).

Melds hint

This card is a combination of two other cards.

Melded hint

Meld is an evergreen that denotes a given card as capable of being transformed into its flip side once another specific card with this same evergreen is cast. If that happens, both cards transform into only one card with the Melded evergreen which means the card is a combination of other 2 specific cards. If any of the cards with Meld are cast while the related Melded card is in play, the Meld card will not come into play and the Melded card will be reinforced. While this mechanic is not new to Magic: Puzzle Quest, it went through a change since its last appearance. Now, Meld can work with Creature and Support cards (previously, it was a creature exclusive mechanic in Magic: Puzzle Quest).

Meld:

Melded:

New Planeswalkers

Saheeli, Filigree Master

A brilliant inventor, the Planeswalker Saheeli Rai used her mastery over metal to re-create the Golgothian Sylex with the intent to use it against the Phyrexian army invading Dominaria. Unable, however, to activate it, she will use her inventor abilities to build and maintain the Temporal Anchor, an artifact needed to learn how to to defy Phyrexia itself.

Tokens

Thopter

(Colorless) Creature - Thopter Construct Artifact (1/1) Flying, Token

Filigree Mastery

(Blue, Red) Support Card - Emblem (2) Token, Resilient.

At the beginning of your turn: Reduce the cost of Artifact cards in your hand by X. Your first Artifact creature gets +X/+X. X is this support's shield.

Teferi, Temporal Pilgrim

The planeswalker Teferi Akosa is a chronarch, a wizard capable of altering the flow of time. To find out how to activate the Golgothian Sylex for the fight against Phyrexia, he used a device named Temporal Anchor to travel back in time to find the moment when the Sylex was first activated. Will Teferi’s abilities allow him to gather this knowledge amidst the Brothers’ War?

Passive Ability

Wisdom of the Past

When you draw a card during your turn: Gain 1 Loyalty. This effect can trigger up to 2 time(s) per turn.

Tokens

Ghost of Wars Past

(Blue) Creature Card (2/2) Token, Level

Resourceful 1: This creature gets +X/+X. X is this card's Level.

Urza, Lord Protector/Urza Planeswalker

Before becoming a planeswalker, Urza was a brilliant artificer who engaged in a decades long war with his own brother. The explosion of the Golgothian Sylex that ended the war and changed Dominaria forever also awakened Urza’s spark, granting him power beyond his imagination.


Passive Ability

Impending Ignition

    Exciting stuff. Love it.

    I dont see any vanguards in the posted gallery. Are there going to be any?
    Also does it mean we should finally give up any hope for DMU vanguards? @Oktagon_Support

    Wish this set would also have a Mishra planewalker. The set is called the "Brother's War", not "Brother."

    Can we please change cast into summoned? We have lovely cards that "put into play" (reanimator cards or stuff like the rainbow bridge for example) that would be unusable with this mechanic.

    thnx

    Came here to ask this very question. I see a lot of cards that target or indirectly target vanguards yet I don't see any Vanguards, this will be the 3rd set in a row without a significant number of Vanguards? I.e. 3 to 4 mythics and 3 to 4 rare. We received 3 for Capenna and that was the last time Oktagon created any. Kamigawa was the last release that saw a fair number of Vanguards.

    So my question is this @Oktagon_Support , Are Vanguards being reassessed on how the public can gain access to them for their collection? I.e. the event that allowed us to play and earn the 3 Mythic vanguards from Capenna. Any insight to why the sudden reduction as of late?

    Thanks in advance

    Just pointing out that Revolving Planswalk hasn't been updated.... Is that a mistake ? @Oktagon_Support

    Ah it also mentions January 2023... But that refers to the new coalition event, and not the update to RP, right?

    Hello @khurram,
    Sorry, I think the text was a bit confusing, but both the Revolving Planeswalk update and the new coalition event will be released in January 2023.

    There probably isn't one. BRO doesn't introduce any new mechanics.
