Clamfolk Lore for D&D Conversion

New 23 Jul 2024 Asked by bill-cipher-official 8 Comments

Mr Mark, what is the lore / biology of the Clamfolk? I would really like to know, due to wanting to make a Clamfolk race in D&D 5e.


There isn’t much established lore save a few pieces of flavor text. Some Clamfolk live in Clamville. One Clamfolk village got shelled. There are Clamfolk musicians who play “Duke of Pearl”. There are Clamfolk rebels.

Potential for Other D&D Planes

New 19 Jul 2024 Asked by darcskies17 1 Comments

Hey Mark first I want to thank you for what you and your team do. Is it possible that we could get other D&D planes as sets. Faerun has a lot of history but there are other planes that could be awesome Inspiration for MTG?


It is possible.

Ethos Differences in Magic and D&D

New 19 Jul 2024 Asked by blorpityblorpboop 2 Comments

Can we have a podcast about the differences and analogies in Ethos between Magic and D&D(Color pie vs. alignments)?


I am not nearly as well versed in D&D’s alignments as I am Magic’s color pie.

Distribution of Unique Secret Lairs

New 14 Jul 2024 Asked by armadagon 4 Comments

Mark, there are still three secret Lairs that have mechanically unique cards: Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, Dr Who: Regeneration, and Secret Lair X Lara Croft. Previous "Universes Within" versions of mechanically unique Secret Lair cards were reprinted via The List, but with The List being phased out as of Bloomburrow, how does Wizards plan on distributing these cards in the future?


It hasn’t been announced yet.

Using More or Less

New 28 Jun 2024 Asked by aalgot 3 Comments

Can I use more or less on Sword of dungeons and Dragons to roll a D21


You may. The trick is finding a 21-sided die.

Understanding 'Each Color' in Acorn Games

New 13 Jun 2024 Asked by eredithdriscol 4 Comments

Per culation's ask about "each color" in acorn games, would having Water Gun Balloon Game or Sword of Dungeons and Dragons, which reference pink and gold but aren't those colors themselves, count for those colors being "active"?What about if I had Avatar of Me in the graveyard (and brown eyes)?


To count an additional color you have to have a permanent of that color on the battlefield, not just a permanent that refers to it.

Sword of D&D

New 02 Jun 2024 Asked by exalted-boda 117 Comments

I know it’s not how you meant it but Sword of Dungeons & Dragons also used a d20


That’s because it was referencing Dungeons & Dragons.

Special Draft Experience Feedback

New 29 May 2024 Asked by lebreadbox-blog 53 Comments

I played the 50th anniversary DnD battle for baldur's Gate special draft with the new dungeon. HOLY COW. Was this ever a fun draft. I LOVED the collector booster in your draft pool. I loved the new dungeon. And the set remains as fun as ever to draft and play. High fives, yes. But please, can we have more special drafts like this?


I can pass along how much you enjoyed it.

Die Rolling Cards

New 27 May 2024 Asked by violant-apologia 6 Comments

I'm not even sure die rolling exists outside of an Un or D&D set.
It does, though only on two cards: Mr. House, President and CEO, and Arden Angel.


FYI

Gaming Joy Shared

New 26 May 2024 Asked by snarkatr0n 4 Comments

Happy birthday, Mark! I got into Magic with New Phyrexia's Intro deck, but Dark Ascension was the first new set I was around for. I remember for our first few games my brother thought Llanowar Elves searched the deck for a forest each turn. You can imagine I lost more often than not. Dimir is still my favourite color combo from that. Now I'm lucky enough to play magic with my partner of 9 years (today's our anniversary) and two of my dnd friends, and it's been a constant in my life

D&D Card Trivia

New 16 May 2024 Asked by sapphic-recluse 20 Comments

Hello! Saturday, 18 May is my birthday and I'm requesting a(n early) spot of birthday trivia about any Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering, please. It could be about a card from CLB or AFR, or something on the D&D side like the Strixhaven sourcebook. Many thanks!



This is the first Dungeons & Dragons themed Magic card we made. It was designed for Unstable, but first appeared in a special box at Hascon. When I designed the card, it rolled three six-sided dice, but the D&D team asked if we could change it to a twenty-sided die as that was more iconic for D&D.Happy Birthday!

Double Faced Card Rules

New 11 May 2024 Asked by tiwaztyrsfist 18 Comments

Hi Mark, can the rules currently support multiple Double Faced cards with the same front but different backs, OR multiple Double Faced cards with different fronts and the same backs (not like a meld, but identical back faces)?

As an example, say 4 cards that were the same card on the front, but 4 different alternate versions on the back, like a D&D druid with 4 different wild shape variations, OR 4 cards that were different creatures on the front, but the back were all the same legendary shapeshifter (Ovar, Lazav, etc), and the backs were identical.


The rules can’t support same front differential back, but can, hypothetically, support different fronts, same back.

Power Words in D&D

For the Question Mark who asked about other Power Words existing -- FYI, D&D does have spells called Power Word Stun and Power Word Heal as well. : )

D&D Spell Names

New 02 May 2024 Asked by battle-of-wits 32 Comments

The title of the card "Power Word Kill" implies the existence of other Power Words in the multiverse. Two quick questions: If or when, another "power word" spell? And If or when, a "silly" power word spell?


That’s a D&D spell.

Class Cards Return

New 20 Apr 2024 Asked by glamberrr 33 Comments

Do you think class cards (from forgotten realms) are ever coming back? Do you think they'll ever come back in a non dnd set?


I think we’re more likely to see more class cards than not.

DnD Set Planeswalkers

New 12 Apr 2024 Asked by andalon-historian 30 Comments

When you do another DnD set, are you likely to not use planeswalkers because of the new in-universe rule for UB?


I’m not sure. My gut is we wouldn’t, but maybe the precedent would allow it.

Planeswalker Set Strategy

New 12 Apr 2024 Asked by mysterybunni 36 Comments

If/when: a planeswalker in a UB set (that isn't DnD)


If. We’ve decided to save planeswalkers for just in-universe sets.

Future D&D Sets

New 11 Apr 2024 Asked by luvkraft 28 Comments

I play Commander with my friends using only D&D cards, so I was very happy when I saw the secret lair in last year's movie collaboration. (And Stranger Things, of course.) Can we expect more D&D-related sets in the future?


Not in the immediate future, but I believe there’s a better chance we make more than not.

Reprinting UB and D&D Cards

New 06 Apr 2024 Asked by weebos 150 Comments

I just want to say I greatly appreciate the trend of reprinting UB and D&D cards with new, Magic art in Commander decks. High fives to the folks who make it happen!


High fives to be applied.

Universes Within Reprints

New 05 Apr 2024 Asked by wildcardgamez 138 Comments

Really appreciate the Universes Within reprints in Thunder Junction Commander decks. Getting access to the new lands from Fallout and wreck and rebuild is very nice. I also really appreciate the new art for the DND flavored stuff to properly put it into Magic. Cowboy hats off to whoever got them in the decks.


I’ll pass along the comments to the casual play design team.
