his drop comes with four physical MTG copies of Thalia, Guardian of Thraben, each with a different piece of art and flavor text highlighting her story. It also comes with an MTGA code for each piece of art as a card style... Because Thalia is going to be available in game with Historic Anthology II! Oh, and a Thalia card sleeve as well.

You can purchase this bundle at secretlair.wizards.com.

it's straightout nonsensical that ability loss is not layer 1

That's because you're only trying to solve the situation where dryad loses its ability, and not thinking about all the other possible interactions.

Alright, first off, let's do as you say and put it in layer 1. That puts it before copy effects, such as clone. Imagine the following situation. I have a [[clone]] that copies a [[wind drake]]. You put [[Ichthyomorphosis]] on it. Does my clone still have flying? Well, if ability loss is in layer 1, the answer is yes, because it loses its abilities first, then becomes a copy. Is that more intuitive?

Alright, so clearly, copy effects need to happen before. What about if we put ability loss as layer 2. That means it happens before control changing effects. Imagine you have [[Archetype of Imagination]] and a wind drake. Your opponent uses [[control magic]] to steal your wind drake. Does the stolen wind drake have flying?...

Figuring out a way to hide cards that aren't collectable by opening packs (or at least mark them somehow in the UI) has been on my to-do list for a while. Sadly, the data isn't redily available in the deck editor. Not sure when we will be able to make it happen.

Other than that, there is nothing else we are planning to add to the advanced search.

Here's a forum post that details the advanced search features:

I'm currently working on a way to surface these in game, so stay tuned!

Thanks for the report, fixed it up! The fix should be live when Ikoria releases. #wotc_staff

Hey folks! There's still a little time to go before we reveal anything about Ikoria. You'll see us talking on our social channels and Daily MTG leading up to the reveal, so it'll be hard to miss when it does happen. Until then, stay tuned.
