Secret Lair x MSCHF: The Zeta Set arrives in Magic’s Chaos Vault on September 2, 2026. Wizards of the Coast’s official announcement sets the price at $19.92 and limits the release to MagicSecretLair.com while supplies last. A booster built like a photocopied prototype Each Zeta Set contains one Zeta Booster with seven

randomized Magic: The Gathering cards. The cards echo early 1990s playtest sheets, with black-and-white photocopy styling, occasional negative treatments, and a small chance of colour-banded versions. The full pool contains 121 cards across common, uncommon, rare, and mythic rare slots. How the sale window works The

pre-queue opens at 8 a.m. Pacific time, one hour before the 9 a.m. sale. Wizards notes that placing an item in a cart does not reserve it; the order is secured at checkout. That timing matters for collectors planning around work or school, while the product’s playtest framing gives Commander and Magic-history fans a

clear reason to examine the set. Read the complete card and queue details, then visit the Trading Card Games Journal, Browse, or your Library to keep the next set on the same shelf.
