Wizards of the Coast is dropping a new Magic: The Gathering deck called Raining Cats and Dogs as a Secret Lair product.
Creature types Cat and Dog in MTG are a favorite of players, but the typal themes lack proper support within the Commander format. The release of Raining Cats and Dogs has the potential to add a ton of support, along with valuable reprints and new cards that could impact the Commander format outside of the Cat and Dog typal builds. Popular reprints like Rin and Seri are in the Commander deck, featuring reversible art, along with the Enchantment Anointed Procession.
When does Raining Cats and Dogs Secret Lair release?
You can get a first look at Raining Cats and Dogs Secret Lair spoilers starting on Jan. 11, featuring three cards. Previews will continue on Jan. 15 with four more cards, followed by four more spoilers on Jan. 19. No official drop date for the Raining Cats and Dogs Secret Lair release has been provided at the time of writing. You can check out the Raining Cats and Dogs spoilers through the WotC Secret Lair website.
What is special about Raining Cats and Dogs Secret Lair drops?
Slotted into the 100-card Secret Lair Commander deck are reversible art cards. Two were previewed before spoilers began: Rin and Seri and Anointed Procession. The Raining Cats and Dogs spoilers should showcase the remaining reversible cards, along with any other special surprises from WotC.
Upon the official release of the Cats and Dogs Secret Lair, there will be a limited number of Commander decks available. Once they sell out, there are no more. This could affect MTG Secret Lair card prices on the secondary market.
Jan. 11 Raining Cats and Dogs spoilers
The first three Raining Cats and Dogs Secret Lair spoilers were lands, featuring full art of cats and dogs teaming up in the mountains, plains, and forests.
Jan. 15 Raining Cats and Dogs spoilers
Two new Secret Lair Raining Cats and Dogs spoilers dropped on Jan. 15, showcasing reprinted MTG cards that are reversible. The two reprints are both Legendary creatures: Jetmir, Nexus of Revels, and Jinnie Fay, Jetmir’s Second. One side of Jetmir has the Cat Demon walking dogs while the other has the Legendary creature petting a cat on his lap. The same applies to Jinnie Fay, with one side featuring her walking dogs while the other side has a cat at her side.
Once the Raining Cats and Dogs spoilers start dropping on Jan. 11, we will continually provide updates upon the information getting released.
