Marketing [ ]

Ninth was sold in xv-menu-booster packs, five unlike theme decks, a fatty pack and a Core Game (which was a 2-Actor Starter Set),^[8] but not in tournament packs. The boosters featured artwork from Elvish Champion, Serra Angel, Hell'southward Caretaker, Rathi Dragon and Mahamoti Djinn.

With Ninth Edition, came a change to the fatty pack.^[9] The fat pack at present contained two boxes with card dividers and a mini-affiche congenital into the opposite of the bill of fare box wrapper.

9th Edition was the first Magic set printed in the Russian language.^[10] All Russian language cards from the edition have black borders, while other languages take white borders. A Russian Shivan Dragon promotional carte was given out to participants instead of the Forcefulness of Nature promo issued everywhere else. The popularity of the Russian set was partially responsible to the change-over from to press Core Ready cards with the more popular blackness borders permanently.

In this manner, many cards in the Ninth Edition core set were updated to sync them upwardly with the conventions used in the Kamigawa block and the Ravnica: City of Guilds ready.^[12] Well-nigh of the changes revolved around the "race-class" model, wherein most sentient creatures have both a species and a job.^[13] Samite Healer, for case, was changed from a Cleric to a Human being Cleric,^[fourteen] and Raging Goblin changed from Goblin to Goblin Berserker. Every artifact fauna that didn't accept a type before was given i; Dancing Scimitar was now a Spirit and Ornithopter was a Thopter.^[15] A lot of cards with old obscure types were updated to have ones that fabricated a picayune more sense. Clone was now a Shapeshifter, for instance, and the Lords such every bit Elvish Champion were given types to match their fine art.^{[16] [17]}
