Who can possibly keep up with all of these Secret Lair drops? Well, me, I guess. But this one’s a little different—it’s for a very good cause. Wizards of the Coast has joined forces with Extra Life to support the families and kids at Seattle Children’s Hospital. The title for the new Secret Lair set is Rise of the Polygons | Extra Life 2026, with 50% of the purchase price going directly to Seattle Children’s Hospital. You can pick up this drop for $39.99, or $49.99 if you prefer the foil option.
This particular Secret Lair drop has some of the most unique art I’ve seen from Secret Lair. Which, considering just how many varied and beautiful art styles we’ve seen grace Secret Lair drops, that’s a surprising statement. Rise of the Polygons gives off the feeling of a PlayStation 1/Dreamcast/Nintendo 64 era JRPG (Japanese Roleplaying Game) crossed with the N64 The Legend of Zelda titles. They may not be as visually appealing to some. But for anyone who grew up playing games that looked just like this—polygonal, low-detail, but bright and colorful—it sparks a nice, warm feeling in your cockles. Graphical limitations of the past gave artists a wide range of challenges that were met with great and varied solutions. For those tired of hyperrealist game spaces, this is no doubt a welcome change.
The re-skins for this Secret Lair drop include the mono-red classics. Big Score, Young Pyromancer, and Balefire Dragon, along with the colorless artifact Sword of Truth and Justice. Plus, a red elemental creature token to go with your Young Pyromancer. The set drops on November 16th and the sale will run until November 30th, though the cards will also be available in limited quantities at MagicCon: Atlanta from November 13–15. Make sure to act fast if you’re looking to support Extra Life and the Seattle Children’s Hospital this Thanksgiving season.
