Episode 170 – Women in Horror Month

Wizards of the Coast knows you’ve been itching to Command the Night since you entered the plane of Innistrad. Today, you can, with the release of the latest Magic: The Gathering set – Dark Ascension!

Innistrad is a plane of menace and dread where every creature hides a darker aspect. Here, hedonistic vampires stalk the shadows to quench their thirst, and the full moon can transform a simple villager into a savage werewolf. Now the Dark Ascension set returns you to that world, but this time, the monsters are winning, and the humans have been forced to bar the gates of their settlements in defense. Your task is to search Innistrad’s new landscape for the best tools to use in your never-ending quest to outsmart your fellow Planeswalkers. What will you find?

Dark Ascension, the second set in the Magic: The Gathering Innistrad block, features 158 black-bordered cards, including randomly inserted premium versions of all cards in the set. It is available in booster packs, intro packs, event decks, and fat packs. And as with InnistradDark Ascension brings double-faced cards to Magic.
