Wizards of the Coast abruptly ended its From Cute to Brute sale, which offered up a $149.99 Magic: The Gathering Commander Deck as a Secret Lair drop set.
The From Cute to Brute sale ended as awkwardly and without warning as it had originally begun back on May 8, 2023 (see "Commander Deck"). What was also odd about the end of this sale was the language used declare that the sale was over. WotC specifically made a note of saying "Sale Ended" in the Twitter post (see below). This is a far cry from declaring that the "Product Has Sold Out," which has led to some speculation as to how well this particular sale went. At $149.99, this Commander deck is $50 more than the Heads I Win, Tails You Lose offered back in 2021 (see "'Secretversary' Sets for 2021"). The delivery of Heads I Win, Tails You Lose was also delayed over a year, which may be something that Secret Lair collectors could still have on their minds.
