Magic: The Gathering Secret Lair Items to Benefit Extra Life Charity

Beginning October 29th you can score cool Magic: The Gathering goodies while also supporting the Extra Life charity. The goodies, from Wizards of the Coast, include auctions for uncut M:TG sheets, special limited edition cards with new art, gaming mats, and more. Don’t miss out on picking up a slew of sweet items and do some good for sick kids at the same time!

From Wizards of the Coast:

SECRET LAIR: EXTRA LIFE 2020

The four premium foil alternate-art cards in this Secret Lair drop illustrate the importance of family and children with brand-new art on some of our favorite cards.

Secret Lair: Extra Life 2020 will be available to preorder on secretlair.wizards.com beginning 9 a.m. PT November 6 through 9 a.m. PT November 9. The drop will cost $60, and Wizards of the Coast will donate $30 to Extra Life benefiting Seattle Children’s Hospital for each copy of Secret Lair: Extra Life 2020 sold.

EXTRA LIFE 2020 PLAYMATS

The art on display in Secret Lair: Extra Life 2020 is truly wonderful, and now you can take it with you wherever you play Magic thanks to these gorgeous playmats by Ultra PRO. And what’s better, each playmat also supports the phenomenal work Extra Life does around the world.

These playmats will be available for $21.99 on shop.ultrapro.com for a limited time—the same dates as the Secret Lair: Extra Life 2020 drop, November 6–9. A donation of $16 will be made to Extra Life for each playmat purchased.

UNCUT SHEET AUCTIONS

Through eBay for Charity at ebay.com/wotccharity, we’ll be auctioning off 20 uncut sheets between October 29 and November 7. These sheets range from German Fifth Edition rares and lands all the way to Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths mythic rare showcase cards—with an extra spicy Mystery Booster Convention Edition sheet to boot!

100% of the profits and fees from these auctions will be donated to Extra Life, so everyone wins!

STREAMING EVENTS

Our in-house(s) stream raising money for Extra Life will run November 7 from 6 p.m. PT to midnight. Join us on twitch.tv/Magic for MTG Arena stipulation drafts, a Q&A with Mark Rosewater, Mini MTG Arena Ironroot Chef, and more!

CREATOR CAMPAIGN

Just like last year, we’re also challenging our streamer community to see who can raise the most money for Extra Life. Interested streamers can create Extra Life pages and join the Magic super team to compete alone or in teams of up to six. The top eight fundraising teams will gain access to codes for their audience, featuring a special alternate-art card style of Collected Company.

ALL THE REST

Did you think that was everything? There are more ways to participate coming, as well!

We’ll be offering an Extra Life logo sleeve on MTG Arena with the proceeds (less transaction fees) donated to Extra Life, benefiting Seattle Children’s Hospital. This sleeve will be available November 6–9.

And finally, we’ll have Extra Life logo playmats and apparel available through the MTG Pro Shop.
