- Welcome To OTIA Sports!
Eminence is back on the gridiron and it wastes no time reminding everyone why the name carries weight. This is the stage where thick stock meets on-card signatures, where a relic window can share space with diamonds, and where a single card can feel more like a museum piece than a pull from a box.
If you grew up on 1990s SPx, this one will feel like opening a time capsule with a few new surprises tucked inside. The shine is back, the holograms are back, and the chase runs deeper than ever with low numbering and a wide mix of inserts and autographs.
Eminence is the product you open with two hands, and basketball is getting that treatment again. The ultra premium line last hit hoops in 2021 and it comes back with a checklist built for showcases, on-card signatures that breathe on thick stock, and memorabilia that looks like it was cut with a jeweler’s eye.
Knockout is back for a second straight year, and it wastes no time getting to the hits. Each hobby box holds four packs with eight cards in each, and every pack gives you either an autograph or a relic.
Wizards of the Coast has pulled its next Banned and Restricted announcement forward to November 10, a clear sign that Standard is headed for changes. After weeks of metagame data and community feedback pointing to one strategy towering over everything else, the company has hinted that at least one card is likely to be removed.
Mosaic is back at the front of Panini’s football calendar, bringing the large checklist, bright foils, and an extensive Prizms rainbow the line is known for.
Panini One is the box you open slowly. There is only one card inside and it is the whole story.
Magic’s head designer, Mark Rosewater, has set expectations in a big way. Through posts on his Blogatog, he made it clear that the Spider-Man release is only the opening act of a multi-year collaboration with Marvel.
Stature is back and it is doing something unusual by covering two seasons at once.
