The Finisher

Wizards of the Coast has revealed a new Secret Lair drop: Secret Lair Countdown Kit: An Encyclopedia of Magic. This is as good of an excuse as any to reprint 26 cards that don't have a home anywhere else, so it got me thinking: what other types of reference books should Magic turn into Secret Lairs?

The 2025 ESports Awards presented by T1 happened last week, and they included awards for the last decade. Some of the honors went to player of the decade Faker, on-air talent of the decade Sjokz ("shocks"), and game of the decade League of Legends. Now, obviously T1 is a LoL company, so tell me: if you were giving an award in gaming for the last decade who would you like to see honored?

The Festival in a Box for Atlanta got announced and shown off this week, and it includes some excellent humorous prints of fan favorites: Pack Rat opening a pack, Sylvan Offering offering a trade, Shared Summons summoning creatures, and Sliver Legion sitting at a content creator signing. We love a good in-joke for the in-crowd so tell me: what would you like to see get that same fun Festival in a Box treatment?
