Dissension Promos

Dissension

Dissension is the thirty-eighth Magic: The Gathering expansion, and was released in May 2006 as the third and final set of the Ravnica block.

Dissension contains 180 black-bordered cards (60 rare, 60 uncommon, and 60 commons) — 15 more than normal for a small set to make room for a reappearance of the popular split card mechanic from Invasion and Apocalypse. The prerelease events for this set were held on April 22–23, 2006. Its expansion symbol is meant to be a variation on the wrought-ironwork shown in the Guildpact symbol, but broken to reflect the disintegration of the Guildpact spell. Like the Guildpact symbol, it has three “branches” to evoke its three guilds. Dissension expanded on the Ravnica block themes of multicolor and hybrid, adding the last three new guilds to the environment (The Azorius Senate (white/blue), the Cult of Rakdos (black/red) and the Simic Combine (green/blue).
