âI honestly donât know how my Urzatron lands became marked, so I donât know the exact reason things turned out this way,â Watanabe wrote. âI think maybe itâs because I tutored for them a lot from my deck. This requires touching the cards more, and the repeated exposure mightâve caused damage to them, giving them distinguishable marks.â
In the interest of transparency, Watanabe and Team Cygames have releasedthe following images of the deck.








Hrm…
