Secret Lair: Magic 30 is a limited edition release by Wizards of the Coast, the creators of Magic: The Gathering. It is a follow-up to Secret Lair: Ultimate Edition, which was released in 2020. Secret Lair: Magic 30 celebrates the 30th anniversary of Magic: The Gathering, a popular collectible card game. The Secret Lair: Magic 30 set contains five unique drop themes that are inspired by different aspects of Magic's history and lore. Each drop theme focuses on a specific plane or event in the game's history. The drop themes include the Planeswalker Party, Full Sleeves: The Tattoo Pack, Showcase: Zendikar Revisited, The Path Not Traveled, and Happy Yargle Day! Each drop theme features full-art cards with stunning illustrations.
Magefire is renewal; it is the exciting feeling of great magical power surging through one's body, blazing out as flickering blue fire as it spills forth, cleansing and renewing. With enough clergy powering it, this cooperative ceremonial magic can heal all sorts of fell conditions. Mystrans describe it as "the most blissful feeling one can know." It is spectacular to watch. The Mystran to he affected lies down on the ground and the circle of celebrants pours power into the worshiper—until his or her body, blazing with blue fire, slowly rises to hang in midair above those fueling the ceremony, humming and crackling with the power of the magic surging through it. Magefire often ends in a Starflight ceremony, provided the celebrants intone the correct incantation.
The Hymn to the Lady is a solemn ritual performed at funerals and mage-moots, that calls up visions of dead mages and Mystran clergy as a plainsong dirge is intoned by the living clergy present. She fully expected that her representative would be challenged and eventually defeated by other mages, only to be replaced by another spellcaster worthy of the office.
The drop themes include the Planeswalker Party, Full Sleeves: The Tattoo Pack, Showcase: Zendikar Revisited, The Path Not Traveled, and Happy Yargle Day! Each drop theme features full-art cards with stunning illustrations. The Planeswalker Party drop theme showcases iconic planeswalkers from throughout Magic's history, including beloved characters like Chandra, Jace, Nissa, and Teferi. The Full Sleeves: The Tattoo Pack features cards with tattoo-inspired artwork, which has been a popular trend among Magic fans.
