Legendary Artist's TCG Journey Continues at Magic
Mitsuhiro Arita, a renowned artist behind countless Pokémon Trading Card Game illustrations, including the coveted Charizard, is bringing his artistic talents to Magic: The Gathering. His latest contribution is a Secret Lair drop featuring four stunning cards, and we have an exclusive preview.
View the gallery below to see all four cards in Arita's Secret Lair:
This isn't Arita's first foray into Magic; he previously illustrated a borderless Lumra, Bellow of the Woods, for the 2024 Bloomburrow set. However, this four-card Secret Lair represents a significant expansion of his work within the Magic universe.
The featured cards boast diverse playability across various formats. The iconic Lightning Bolt remains a staple, while Murktide Regent is a powerhouse in Modern and Legacy formats. Light-Paws is a beloved Commander card, and Shorikai enjoys popularity in Vintage Cubes and as a Commander deck.
Wizards of the Coast's store page describes the drop as follows: "Renowned for his iconic trading card game art spanning nearly 30 years, Mitsuhiro Arita's work is globally recognized. His debut Magic: The Gathering collaboration, a borderless Lumra, Bellow of the Woods from 2024's Bloomburrow, quickly gained immense popularity. This Secret Lair showcases his signature creature designs across four exceptional cards."
This Secret Lair will be available on the Secret Lair website, priced at $29.99 (non-foil) and $39.99 (foil), starting Monday, February 10th at 9 am PT. Supplies are limited, and given the recent shift away from timed print-to-order, these are expected to sell out quickly. Don't miss out!
