List of Friday Night Magic cards

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of promotional Magic: The Gathering cards given out at Friday Night Magic tournaments since 2000. They are commonly referred to as FNM cards.

Before 2015, cards were awarded to the winner, the most sporting player (replaced by the finalist in 2005), and two other players chosen at random. Since 2015, distribution is left to the event organizer's discretion, although the Wizards Play Network provides guidelines to ensure every player has a chance to obtain the promotional card.[1][2] From October 2017 to April 2018, promo cards were replaced with promo "Double Sided Tokens".[3] However, after feedback to the change, Wizards of the Coast returned to promo cards.[4] Starting in 2019, with the Core Set 2020, promo cards were replaced with packs of random promo cards.[2][5][6]

2003

[edit]

Disenchant was the last FNM card to use the old frame and the classic Shooting Star foil look. Beginning with Smother FNM cards used the frame introduced with 8th Edition and featured the FNM logo on top of the text box.[7] While Crystalline Sliver is numbered 3/12 F03 it was not distributed as an FNM promo. Some of the cards were stolen and Wizards chose not to distribute the Slivers instead shifting FNM prize card schedule by one month, thus Capsize was handed out in March.[8] Disenchant was added to the series of 2003 FNM cards and handed out in July, thus shifting the remaining cards for the year back into the original schedule. In contrast to the other FNM cards the FNM Disenchant is not numbered.[7] Most of the lost Crystalline Slivers were later recovered and handed out at the 2008 summer Grand Prix events.

2018

[edit]

Beginning in April, the prize was reverted from double-sided tokens to standard promos, as community feedback did not match to WotC's expectations after the change.[11] At the same time, instead of each promo being tied to a month, three promos were made available during the whole run of a given set, for stores to distribute as they see fit.[12]

  • 1-3/18: Double-sided token of either Illusion/Saproling, City's Blessing/Elemental, or Merfolk/Treasure [217]

  • Guilds of Ravnica: Conclave Tribunal, Sinister Sabotage, Thought Erasure [220]

2019

[edit]

Beginning with the release of Core Set 2020, the way promos were distributed was again changed. Instead of explicitly tying promos to specific events like FNM, instead stores would be given "promo packs" to be distributed as they see fit. The packs contains promo stamped cards from the set, as well as a small number of specific cards using the dark frame from previous FNM promos.[13]

  • Ravnica Allegiance: Growth Spiral, Light Up the Stage, Mortify [221]
  • War of the Spark: Augur of Bolas, Paradise Druid, Dovin's Veto [222]
