Magic: The Gathering - Prophecy Booster Set (143 Cards)

Set Overview: Step into the world of Magic: The Gathering with Prophecy, the third expansion in the Masques Block and the second small expansion of the series. Featuring a total of 143 cards—55 commons, 44 uncommons, and 44 rares—Prophecy introduces a unique blend of mechanics and thematic elements that set it apart from the rest of the block.

Expansion Symbol: The expansion symbol for Prophecy is a cluster of three crystals, symbolizing the delicate, fragile nature of rhystic magic—a core element within the set.

Key Themes and Mechanics: Although Prophecy doesn’t follow the direct thematic progression from Mercadian Masques and Nemesis, it brings new concepts to the Magic universe. The set is most notable for introducing the first creature subtype hosers, such as Brutal Suppression and Root Cage, which specifically target Rebels and Mercenaries, respectively. These game-changing cards introduce innovative strategic options, helping players control and disrupt popular archetypes in competitive play.

Premium Foil Cards: Prophecy also made history by being the first Magic booster set to feature the smaller shooting star design on premium foil cards, making these cards highly coveted by collectors and players alike.
