Latest disclosures – 28 October 2024
Despite the name, Magic: The Gathering's Foundations Jumpstart isn't just another tie-in to the similarly named Foundations. Instead, it's a completely separate Jumpstart set similar to the original and Jumpstart 2022, complete with new cards and reprints not found in the other set.
These sets are always great to play and offer a chance for you to get your hands on some real powerhouses. The set launches on November 15 alongside Foundations, and here's every single card you can find in it.
Unlike Foundations, these cards are not Standard-legal unless they had already been printed in a Standard-legal set.
Updated October 28 at 07:01 GMT by Joe Parlock: After a small hiccup, we're still waiting for the Foundation's Jumpstart set. It will likely be today, but we also have the usual Foundations to focus on, so be prepared to see a lot of cards.
Latest disclosures – 28 October 2024
Any accusations that yesterday was “the day” were greatly exaggerated, as we're still waiting for the full Foundation Jumpstart set.

White
Like the original Jumpstart set, Cats and Dogs seem to be the big draw for white in Foundations Jumpstart. Generous Pup is definitely a card to watch, as it goes wild with cards like Cathar's Crusade or any +1/+1 counter doubler.

Ninjas will be a theme in Foundation's Jumpstart, thanks to the clumsy Turtle Taeko, the Patient Avalanche.

Black
Drawing cards, losing life, and sacrificing creatures are all in black's wheelhouse, making the reprint of Vilis, Broker of Blood a great inclusion for this set.

Zada, Hedron Grinder gets some fun toys now in Foundations Jumpstart, thanks to Frontline Heroism copying your spells for extra value and Hearts on Fire giving you the ability to target only one creature. Expect to go wide and use a lot of burn spells in red this set.

If you don't want to give your life for Shroofus Sproutsire, then you should be ashamed. The perfect guy is an impressive new Saproling commander, and backed up by cards like Scythecat Cub could pump out dozens of tokens every turn.

Multicolored
Jumpstart sets tend not to have a heavy focus on multi-colored cards, as pack themes are usually monochromatic. The original Jumpstart only had a few, and Jumpstart 2022 had none at all. But who knows, maybe the Foundation's Jumpstart will buck the trend?

Colorless cards are the backbone of Jumpstart sets, as they give you access to key artifact synergies and mana leveling. We'll also get multicolor landings to make whatever deck you put together work.
