Wizards of the Coast has introduced the Secret Lair Dungeons & Dragons fiftieth Anniversary Superdrop. The Superdrop celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of D&D with a whopping 5 Drops that culminate on this colossal Superdrop. Each shall be accessible on the Secret Lair web site on August 27, 2024.

The announcement for what is going to undoubtedly be essentially the most sought-after Secret Lairs of 2024 was made on Twitter and required a thread for all the knowledge regardless of solely two playing cards having been proven up to now. You’ll be happy to know that the playing cards play into your deepest needs and can function characters from Baldur’s Gate 3. On the time of writing, Karlach and Astarion have been revealed. Nevertheless, I hope there’s a callback to basic D&D paintings and characters from the previous 5 a long time someplace in these 5 units.

50 years of roleplay in 5 small units

Wizards of the Coast has revealed the identify of each Drop within the Secret Lair Dungeons & Dragons fiftieth Anniversary Superdrop. Exterior of the 2 playing cards above, Astarion, the Decadent, and Karlach, Fury of Avernus, we don’t know the rest. All of the set names are as follows.

• Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: An Exhibition of Journey
• Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: Astarion’s Thirst
• Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: Karlach’s Rage
• Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: Demise is within the Eyes of the Beholder I
• Secret Lair x Dungeons & Dragons: Demise is within the Eyes of the Beholder II

As you possibly can inform, it’s troublesome to work out what shall be included in every set primarily based on these names alone. Two are clearly character-specific for Astarion and Karlach, whereas the one seems like a have a look at basic D&D artwork, and the opposite two could possibly be something.

Sadly, the announcement has been considerably clouded by followers’ points with Secret Lairs. Wizards of the Coast now solely sells a restricted variety of units when a Secret Lair goes stay, which has led to scalpers shopping for in bulk and stopping anybody else from shopping for the playing cards they’re after.

Person Kurisu commented, “Carry again the outdated Secret Lair system.” Jen goes even additional. “‘Whereas provides final’ So that you imply I’m going to get within the queue because it opens, once more. After which I’m going to attend for 2 hours, once more. After which, once I’m inputting my fee data, I’m going to seek out out it offered out. Once more. Outdated system method higher, even with the wait.”

Followers simply aren’t pleased with how the Secret Lair system at present works and easily need to have the ability to purchase their playing cards. If nothing adjustments by the point August 27 rolls round, it seems to be like most followers will miss out or should pay double for every of those units.
