For the first time ever, players will experience snow-covered dual lands as well as Snow instants and Snow sorceries. Kaldheim features showcase frames that offer a hand-chiseled look never seen on a Magic card before. These showcase frames appear on most of the legends cards in the set, including new cards shown Halvar, God of Battle and Tibalt, Cosmic Imposter/Valki, God of Lies.
Kaldheim introduces new card mechanics Boast and Foretell. Boast lets players activate an ability only if a creature attacked this turn. Foretell allows players to exile cards from their hand face down to cast at a later time for its foretell cost. Returning mechanics include modal double face cards for lands and legendary gods, sagas, and the snow-covered lands that feature a new snow frame.

The List cards are also being revamped with 40 of the 300 cards being swapped out for cards thematic to Kaldheim.
