The next deck in Magic: The Gathering's Duel Decks series has been announced, Knights vs. Dragons. Featuring a matchup as old as the fantasy genre itself, Knights Vs. Dragons will have a MSRP of $19.99 and will be available on April 1st, 2010.
Update 3/18/11: Full decklist and review!
Update 2/24/11: Knight of the Reliquary confirmed with sizzling new alternate art!
What sort of thing can we expect to find in this upcoming Duel Deck? Knight Exemplar seems like it would fit right in with a crusade against the scaly scourge, along with plenty of anti-dragon avengers like Southern Paladin and Dragonstalker.
Everything from Silver Knight to Knight of Meadowgrain would make fitting additions to the ranks of the righteous.
On the Dragon side of things, the sky's the limit as any number of hellkites and wurms from Magic: The Gathering history could make an appearance, along with some ways to get them out quickly.
There are so many sultans of the sky in Magic: The Gathering that it's really quite impossible to tell which ones might make it into to Duel Decks: Knights vs. Dragons, but Hunted Dragon seems like a thematic selection that won't likely be left out.
Magic: The Gathering Duel Decks have continued to add value by including classic reprints like Mishra's Factory and Swords to Plowshares in Duel Decks: Espeth Vs. Tezzeret, and we can't wait to see what gems will be included in this classic cache of cards.

Ummm.
Dragonstalker is a Soldier, not a Knight.
Just saying.
I hope to see Flamblast Dragon.
Definitely a soldier - Expect to see soldiers, paladins, knights, etc. in the deck :)
Knight with shadow would be great... but I think that they dont put it to this deck...
I'll get my self a few!
What colors do you expect to see?
I would almost expect mono-white vs mono red, or red-black vs. green white. Depends how interesting they want to get.
i think, this is a lie, take a look at the release dat, april first
I assure you it's quite real.
Got something to say?
