Hey Mark! As a big fan of Booster Tutor and Summon the Pack (they're fantastic cube cards that I love watching people get to play with) do you think that in a potential future Un set we could get cards in other colors that let you get cards from Magic packs? Or is that a mechanic that's only in color pie for Black Un cards?

We’ve did a booster tutor in red in Unfinity (with Opening Ceremony). All colors can have access if done in an appropriately in-color way.

Hi Mark. Un-Rules question here. For the purposes of Booster Tutor, Stocking Tiger, and Summon the Pack, which of the following can be used as a "sealed Magic booster pack": a set booster, a collector booster, a theme booster, a themed prerelease booster (e.g. the special booster inside of a Strixhaven prerelease pack for one of the Colleges), a promo pack/foil promo pack, a prerelease promo foil in its wrapper, a box topper, a buy-a-box promo, and a Secret Lair.

The short answer is it has to be a “booster pack”Set booster? Yes, it’s a booster.Collector booster? Yes, it’s a booster.Theme booster? Yes, it’s a booster.Themed prerelease booster? Yes, it’s a booster.Promo pack? No, it’s not a booster.Prerelease promo? No, it’s not a booster.Box topper? No, it’s not a booster.Buy-a-Box promo? No, it’s not a booster.

Ok, here goes for an un-mander question: are Booster Tutor and Summon the Pack subject to Rule 11? "Abilities which bring other card(s) you own from outside the game into the game (such as Living Wish; Spawnsire of Ulamog; Karn, the Great Creator) do not function in Commander." Do cards from boosters count as "outside the game?" Because they sure aren't in your sideboard.

You’re already breaking a rule to play silver border cards, so if you’re allowed to have it in your deck, you’re allowed to get the booster.

Does Summon the Pack include creature tokens in that pack?

No.

Can summon the pack put augment creatures onto host creatures?

No.

Another quick unquestion, sorry. If I Summon the Pack and someone casts something like, The Great Aurora that shuffles it all in my deck, do I do so? They're nontokens, so they can't vanish, but I'll admit I don't usually have extra sleeves.

They shuffle in and do the best you can.

Unstable was fun! My friend played Summon the Pack and got a Phage out of a pack, it was hilarious!

: )

With the exception of the zombie rider, Summon the Pack feels like it could be done in green pretty easily. Why did you decide on black for the effect?

The ability is a black ability. Booster Tutor being the original.
