Alchemy: Innistrad

Alchemy: Innistrad

Flavor text

***Alchemy: Innistrad*** is a *MTG Arena*-exclusive card set that was released on December 9, 2021. It is the first set in the Alchemy-series.

## Description

*Alchemy: Innistrad* is a digital only release adjacent to the release of *Innistrad: Midnight Hunt* and *Innistrad: Crimson Vow*. The set is the first to be featured in the Alchemy play mode of MTG Arena. There are 63 new designed-for-digital cards included in the set (11 uncommons, 42 rares, 10 mythic rares). At the same time of its release, 11 older cards were rebalanced.

Most of the cards are set on Innistrad, but a few of them call back to earlier sets.

As with all Alchemy cards, the cards of this set have the MTG Arena "A" as a "foil stamp" at the central bottom of the card. The set also features the A22 expansion symbol.

## Mechanics

*Alchemy: Innistrad* introduces the **Spellbook** mechanic. Drafting a card from a spellbook works much like *Davriel, Soul Broker's* offers and conditions and Tome of the Infinite from *Jumpstart: Historic Horizons*. You will see three cards chosen from among a curated list and select one, usually to put into your hand.

The digital-only mechanics **Conjure**, **Perpetually** and **Seek** that were introduced in *Jumpstart: Historic Horizons* all return in this set. **Party** from *Zendikar Rising* makes a reappearance on one card, as well as **Daybound and Nightbound** and **Foretell**.
