Additional Leaks Hit MTG March of the Machine: The Aftermath

It seems like Magic: The Gathering players are getting a substantial early preview of an upcoming set due to a number of unexpected leaks. After 36 cards from March of the Machine: The Aftermath hit Reddit yesterday morning, an additional leak revealing more new cards was uploaded. Here's what this second leak contains.

March of the Machine: The Aftermath is an upcoming "mini-set" that aims to tie up loose narrative ends following the climactic story of March of the Machine, according to the Magic Wiki. The set will contain 50 new cards, and with these new leaks, the vast majority of them have already been seen - months early.

Additional Leaks Hit MTG March of the Machine: The Aftermath

Late Thursday, a second YouTube video and Imgur gallery featuring March of the Machine: The Aftermath appeared on r/magictcg. The video was uploaded by YouTube account oldschoolmtg, and features 13 new cards not seen in the first leak.

Notably, a number of Planeswalkers appear to be "desparked" in March of the Machine: The Aftermath, returning instead as regular Creature cards. This marks a major change in the Magic storyline as it means many members of the universe's "main cast" is potentially relegated to the sidelines, as they cannot travel between planes and appear in other locations.

Though some might be disappointed about the lack of surprise from the set, these leaks confirm The Aftermath's important place in the Magic storyline. Also, these leaks have not been officially confirmed, so they may still be fake, though this is pretty unlikely given the consistency in the effects of the cards and their artwork.
