---|---|---|
Bring Out Your Dead (Buried Alive) |
Tim The Enchanter (Prodigal Sorcerer) |
European Swallow//African Swallow (Birds Of🧜 Paradisܫe, double-sided) |
'Tis But A Scratch! (Dismember) |
We Want... A SHRUBBERY! (Three Visits) |
Nothing in this drop is particularly big monetarily, but it is full of famous👍 callbac𒊎ks to the movie.
There’s not one, but two Birds of Paradise, with European Swallow and African Swallow both seen dropping coconuts in reference to the castle wall scene. Meanwhile, ‘Tis But A Scratch!, or also known as Dismember, shows off one of🐽 the movie’s most memorable moments; the Black Knܫight being dismembered.
Despite having new names, these are all treated as the exact samᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚe card as their non-Monty Python versions. You can only have four copies of any version of the cards in most decks, and only one if you’re playing Commander.
The next two reprints are We Want… A SHRUBBERY!, a reprinting of Three Visit🃏s🦹 that lets you pull a Forest from out of your deck, and Bring Out Your Dead!, a reprint of the combo-enabling Buried Alive based on the scene where someone tries to cart off a suspiciously still-alive corpse on a plague wagon.
But perhaps the💯 most perfect reprint in this drop is Tim the Enchanter, a reprint of Prodigal Sorcerer. Lots of Magic cards have nicknames – Solemn Simulacrum is known as Sad Robot, Gray Merchant of Asphodel is Gary, Sakura-Tribe Elder is Steve, and Prodigal Sorcerer has long been known as Tim… named after the very same Tim from Monty Python and the Holy Grail that’s included in this printing.
, Secret Lair senior product designer Daniel Nguyen said it was “just the top line on the document, right? You gotta have that 𒉰one. If we don’t do that, we’re all fired, clearly.”
Secret Lair x Monty Python And The Holy Grail: Vol 2.

Castle Of Aaargh (Dark Depths) |
The Black Beast Of Aaargh (Marit Lage token) |
The Bridge Of Death (Door to Nothingness) |
Sir Bedivere's Scales (Ashnod's Altar) |
The sec🎃ond drop is smaller, with only three cards and a token instead of five.
Alternate win condition Door To Nothingness is the Briꦜdge of Death. Considering the Bridge Keeper asks King Arthur his favourite colour, having a five-colour car⛦d like this is a great bit of flavouring.
Three cards and a token is a tough sell for a S♓e🌃cret Lair, but keep in mind Universes Beyond versions tend to price higher than their in-Universe editions. Doubly so with a brand as popular as Monty Python.
Ashnod’s Altar gets reprinted as Sir Bedivere’s Scales, the bizarre Witch-ducking bench that uses an actual duck for 🍸judgment. Ashnod’s Altar goes infinite wit♕h a ham sandwich and fits into a whole lot of decks, explaining why it’s able to so stubbornly hold onto its value.
Castle of Aaargh, ♕and its included The Black Beast Of Aargh token, fill in for Dark Depths and Marit Lage. Another card that combos off with just about anything, most recently people have been concerned about using a Mutated Cultist from the Modern Horizons 3 Eldrazi Commander deck to remove all its counters and get the 20/20 flying, indestructible Marit Lage into play as early as turn two.
And now you can do that with a ಌbig, animated monster instead.
Both of these drops will be launching on July 29 as part of the Stuck In An Elevator Secret Lair Super Drop. Prices haven’t been confirmed yet, but joining them will be the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:three Brain Dead drops which feature rather less traditional fantasy art 💧than we’re seeing here.
