Mercadian Masques

Mercadian Masques

Mercadian Masques is the eighteenth Magic expansion and was released in October 1999 as the first set in the Masques block. It is notable for being the first set not protected by Wizards of the Coast's "Reprint Policy".

Mercadian Masques featured 350 cards (110 commons, 110 uncommons, 110 rares, and 20 basic lands). Mercadian Masques's expansion symbol is a stylized mask to evoke the intrigues, deceptions, and double dealings involved with the Mercadia storyline. This was the first large expansion to use the new 6th Edition rules.
