I'm pulling on my driveway.

We all know what that means.

It's time for their drive to work.

Okay, so today is another in my series to try to talk about every expansion.

So today I'm going to talk about the third expansion in the Theros block, Journey into Nix.

So, a bunch of things.

So, first and foremost, so Journey to Nix is a small set.

165 cards, 60 common, 60 uncommon, 35 rarers, 10 mythic rairs.

Came out May 2nd, 2014.

It was codenamed countrymen because friends a Ferris block was friends Romans and countrymen now by the way we always pick the um code names

before we even know what the sets are so interestingly friends Romans and countrymen is I

mean it's attributed to a Roman, I guess, but...

But anyway, it is definitely more adjacent to what the set is than the average codename is.

Not on purpose.

Also, I think Countrymen might be the only codename ever with a gendered name.

I think a little trivia there.

Okay, so this was the very first lead design by Ethan Fleischer.

So Ethan Fleischer was the winner of the second great designer search.

He had served on a bunch of teams, but this was the first time he led a set.

He has now led many, many sets, but this was the first time he led a set. He's now led many, many sets,

but this was his first set. So the design team led by Ethan was Dan Emmons, Eric Lauer,

Matt Taback, who still at Wizards as an editor, and myself. And the development was led by Dave Humphreys, who also still at wizards.
