At Secret Lair, we may disagree from time to time about our favorite cards, artists, or how to pronounce GIF, but we all agree on one thing—not enough Magic: The Gathering® art captures the captivating science of draconic lifecycle biology. We want to do more than entertain here at Secret Lair. We aim to educate too.

Therefore, this drop presents a visual analysis of five dragons as they mature from adorable wyrmling to scourge of the skies. By simply flipping each card over, you’ll witness a dragon’s physiological development as it ages, including the hypertrophy of wing musculature, fire gland maturation, and scale ossification. Fascinating stuff.
