We're pleased to share the news that EDHREC partner Dragon Shield has announced a new licensing agreement with Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast to produce official Magic: The Gathering gaming accessories.

Dragon Shield is a global leader in premium trading card game accessories, and hands-down the best sleeve maker in the business. So we couldn't be more excited to share some of the amazing products that Dragon Shield has in store for us.

Dragon Shield Announcement Event at MagicCon Atlanta

Members of the Space Cow Media (parent company of EDHREC) team were on hand at Dragon Shield's announcement event on September 25th in Atlanta. While we had our guesses, none of us knew for sure what the announcement would be. But when we finally saw it, in a room full of other content creators, media, and business partners, we were blown away.

But let's get to the real reason you're here. Let's check out the new products.

The Legendary Series

This Dual Matte Art sleeve line will feature some of the most iconic legendary creatures from Magic's history. The first legend in the lineup is, appropriately, the most popular commander, which just happens to be a Dragon! It's The Ur-DragonThe Ur-Dragon, original art by Jaime Jones.

The Landfall Series

This is where the EDHREC crew got really hyped. According to Dragon Shield, this series "draws inspiration from the landscapes that form the foundation" of Magic: The Gathering.

The series kicks off with five Dual Matte Art sleeves featuring fetch lands, with art from the recent Special Guest line in Tarkir: Dragonstorm.

These include Arid MesaArid Mesa, Verdant CatacombsVerdant Catacombs, Scalding TarnScalding Tarn, Marsh FlatsMarsh Flats, and Misty RainforestMisty Rainforest.

These and the Ur-Dragon sleeves made their official debut at MagicCon Atlanta, where patrons were able to purchase the newly revealed sleeves at the Dragon Shield booth. Others will have to wait until the sleeves hit the market, which is anticipated to happen later this year.

The Guildpact Series

Now for the product that got this Commander player the most excited. The Guildpact Series is coming next spring, and features sleeves showcasing the Guild symbols of each of the Ravnica guilds, including the Orzhov Syndicate, the Izzet League, and House Dimir.

These sleeves were not available at the convention, but we did get a sneak peek at them at the announcement event, which you can see in the pictures below.
