As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the latest announcement from Wizards of the Coast has sent a shiver of excitement down my spine! The upcoming Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop, particularly Astarion’s Thirst – Secret Lair, is an absolute masterstroke.
At GenCon this month, Wizards of the Coast unveiled details about a forthcoming release for Dungeons & Dragons’ 50th Anniversary Superdrop. This exciting event will mark five decades of the cherished franchise with five Secret Lair drops, available starting August 27th, as long as supplies last. Initially, Wizards of the Coast kept most of the contents a secret for these Magic: The Gathering drops, but they have now disclosed all five cards from one of the most anticipated sets – Astarion’s Thirst. Given the high demand and popularity, this set was expected to sell out quickly, and now the chances of obtaining it have diminished even further. Each card in this set showcases breathtaking artwork and iconic quotes from a beloved character in Baldur’s Gate 3 – Astarion.
The cards for Magic: The Gathering – Astarion’s Thirst Secret Lair include:
Anguished Unmaking

- Exile target nonland permnanent. You lose 3 life.

Besides Astarion, Wizards of the Coast revealed a card for Karlach during their initial announcement at Gen Con. It’s yet uncertain whether she’ll receive a complete set of her own or if this card is just part of a shared set with other characters.
