The cards will be reskins of pre-existing Magic cards with art based around the popular multiplayer game.

There are two different sets of packs. One based on landmarks and locations, and one for spells.
The first set contains the five ‘basic land’ cards that are the most common cards in Magic; Plains, Islands, Swamps, Mountains, and Forests.
Each of these are redrawn using locations from Fortnite as inspiration.
The other pack contains seven cards based on existing spells, but renamed, and with new flavour text and art.
Wrath of God has been renamed ‘Shrinking Storms’. It has the tagline “Watch the skies”.
Dance of Many has been replaced with ‘Dance Battle’ featuring several popular Fortnite skins.
Etherium Sculptor becomes ‘Supply Llama’ which tells you, “Don’t worry, they want you to smash them”.
Grim Tutor has turned into ‘Crack the Vault’ which lets players know “You see a lock, I see an invitation”.
