They are doing it again, and this time Magic is posting too
Two premium art sets built around Magic: The Gathering went on sale for pre-order yesterday evening. Both official accounts revealed cards in turn — Duel Masters showing one set, Magic showing the other, pointing at each other across the timeline.
The detail worth stopping on: a Magic artist drew one of the Duel Masters cards.
What was announced
Kami Art Kizuna — 神アート絆 — is Takara Tomy's premium art line: made-to-order product with new artwork on existing cards, sold direct rather than through shops. Two sets, released together.

The cards shown so far
From An Invitation to Dominaria. Art by Piotr Foksowicz — credited by Takara Tomy as the artist behind Magic's Ancient Brontodon.
Also from An Invitation to Dominaria. Art by Jason A. Engle, another Magic artist. Two of the three reveals from this set have Magic illustrators — it is the pattern, not a one-off.
From You Are a Planeswalker. Currently a four-of in the most-played deck in Duel Masters PLAY'S — see the Raid list — though that is the digital game and this is paper.
Also from You Are a Planeswalker.
Same set. The reveals are continuing on both accounts.
Why the artist credit matters
The earlier crossover put Magic cards into Duel Masters — Black Lotus, Emrakul, Nicol Bolas — reprinted in frames imitating Magic's old border. That was one game visiting another.
The traffic has been going both ways for a while. In 2023, artwork commissioned for the Duel Masters versions of Magic cards was brought back into Magic as Friday Night Magic promos — Serra Angel and Pouncing Jaguar among them, wearing art that was made for the other game.
Wizards of the Coast designed Duel Masters in 2002 and the two games have shared material ever since. What is new here is both companies running the reveal as a joint operation, with each account handling one set and directing readers to the other.
For English speakers
This is listed here because it is the kind of thing a Magic player would want to know exists, not because it is actionable.
The cards themselves are ordinary Duel Masters cards with premium art — no new mechanics, no new names. What you are paying for is the artwork and the production quality.
