Digital continues to play catch up with paper as Wizards of the Coast adds more cards to Explorer (and consequently, Historic) to MTG Arena. Here is the Explorer Anthology 3 Card List.
Explorer Anthology 3 Release Date: July 18, 2023
Explorer Anthology 3 arrives on July 18, 2023. It will be available for purchase until October 10, 2023, and will cost 4,000 Gems or 25,000 Gold for the bundle, which contains a complete set of 4 of every card listed below.
Quick Take Analysis
Cyclonic Rift is an iconic and highly useful card in the format. Although there are more viable ways of board-wiping your opponent in Pioneer, Explorer isn't quite there yet, so having a copy of Cyclonic Rift is a must. Abbot of Keral Keep is a must for Prowess decks, and Eidolon of Blossoms will help players take one step closer to building Enchantment decks in Explorer. Omnath, Locus of Rage is a powerful card that is needed for any midrange deck or tempo deck. Deathrite Shaman and Xenagos, God of Revels are also iconic cards that are coming along in this bundle, as well as Worldspine Wurm, and the whole set of Battle Lands. While the Battle Lands aren't as exciting as most other two-colored lands out there, they still offer pretty good utility, especially for players who haven't yet completed their sets of Rare Lands in Explorer.
If you're thinking about getting the Explorer Anthology 3 bundle, just remember that we're also getting the new Historic Anthology 7 alongside this on the same date, so take that into consideration when budgeting your gold.
