For the final spoiler for The Exiled, we decided not to focus on new card effects, but to instead highlight the set’s new versatility. Look at that shiny new Veldspar!
Okay, so it’s not the most glamorous card we could have revealed, but this rather unremarkable location does serve a purpose in the set. With all the emphasis that has been placed upon making a wider array of ships and news available to players in limited formats, we realized that to not include an old standby like Veldspar would be a big mistake. Drafting with only boosters from The Exiled will result in some incredible decks, but without any locations dedicated to a simple, steady stream of income, they would fall flat.
While Veldspar may not be powerful or game-determining, it’s a cheap location that has no impact upon your wallet, and generates a profit in only one turn. Veldspar is a solid foundation on which to build a draft deck, and CEOs forget this at their own peril.
