Warhammer 40K X Magic: The Gathering – Five Crossover Cards Revealed
40k is coming to play in the planes with Universes Beyond. Check out 5 cards making the epic crossover happen!
We’ve known the Magic: The Gathering set for Warhammer 40,000 was coming. We’ve been waiting through the delays but the time almost here! The Universes Beyond Warhammer 40,000 set is the crossover set that is one that’s got us super pumped. And today, Games Workshop is showcasing 5 previews from the set.
“The set features four 100-card ‘Commander’ decks each led by a powerful hero of their faction, from Inquisitor Greyfax and Abaddon the Despoiler to the Swarmlord and Szarekh the Silent King. We’re only a month away from release day on the 7th of October, so it’s high time we had a look at some of the other legends joining the roster.”
That’s right folks! Four 100-card Commander Decks that are dropping on October 7th, 2022! Mark your calendars and call your FLGS to get your name on the list for those cards ASAP.
But let’s get to why you’re all here: Those tasty previews!
Warhammer 40K x Magic: The Gathering Crossover Cards
Marneus Calgar
That’s quite the potent card! It’s a curious mix of colors for the Ultramarine but I’m okay with this mix. Without getting too in-the-weeds about the card itself, note that Marneus is 008/168 for the set. Now I want to see the REST of the cards from the set…but we’ll have to settle for the next 4. For now.
Be’lakor, the Dark Master
Oh don’t worry too much about the Demon spelling — that’s just so the card will function better within the wider pool of Magic: The Gathering cards. Not that anyone is going to take these cards and play with the even BIGGER pool of Magic cards, right? Who’d do a silly thing like mix all your card sets together to build your own crazy decks…
Imotekh the Stormlord
Oh man…are all Necrons going to be Mono-black!? That’s going to be a whole lot of fun…The instant death/recursion mechanics seem appropriate for the Necrons.
Magus Lucea Kane
Here’s our first look at a Tyranid card. Although it’s a Genestealer Cultist…I’m still wondering what the heck that Commander Deck is going to run like. Is it Slivers? I’m hoping it’s Slivers…
Noise Marine
Not ever card is going to be a fabled commander. There’s going to be some grunts along the way — but don’t knock’em till you try them out! The Noise Marine is surely going to bring the pain to your opponent the turn they land.
With those 4 commander decks coming I’ve got to decide which I want to play first. Ah…who am I kidding. It’s Tyranids all the way!
