Usurp the Shadow Throne is a standalone booster set designed for both limited and constructed play. Featuring three Shadow heroes, the milestone 20th set unleashes the penultimate chapter of the War of the Monarch.
Flesh and Blood’s iconic original Runeblade Viserai finally returns from traversing i’Arathael, now imbued with the power of Shadow! As the champion of the Old Ones, he uses his otherworldly abilities to usurp all who stand in his path of conquest. He is joined by Malice, a Necromancer who commands an army of zombies, corrupting them beyond death to serve her sinister desires. Fan favorite Brute Levia is back, driven by the insatiable hunger of the demon Blasmophet within her.
With the gate to i’Arathael open, gameplay is unbound. Embrace the Shadow and access forbidden power by playing cards from your banished zone. Usurp power by seizing your opponent’s Runechants by force! With such power at your disposal, the fate of Rathe is within your grasp.
Ultimate power is within your reach… are you ready to take your seat and Usurp the Shadow Throne?

Pre-Release Promo Cards
What promotional cards are included?
Every Pre-Release Kit contains an 11-card Pre-Release promo pack. Within this promo pack is a 1-card slot which can either be an extended art Corrupted Corpse Token, or a Rainbow Foil Baalghor, Omen of the End hero card.
Rainbow Foil Baalghor, Omen of the end
On average, one in every twelve Pre-Release Kits contains a stunning Rainbow Foil Baalghor.
This is the only Rainbow Foil version of Baalghor available outside of the Marvel version found in booster packs, making it one of the most desirable cards available during the Pre-Release season.
Please note that distribution is random. The average insertion rate is approximately one copy for every twelve kits; however, this is an estimated distribution rate only and does not constitute a guarantee. Individual open rates may vary, including the possibility of receiving no copies per case of 12 Pre-Release Kits.
Is Baalghor, omen of the end playable during pre-release?
Yes, players whose Pre-Release Kit contains a Baalghor, Omen of the End Promo may use this hero during the Pre-Release event.
Rainbow Foil Micro Text Box Corrupted Corpse
All other Pre-Release Kits contain an exclusive Rainbow Foil Micro Text Box Corrupted Corpse promo.
