Crossover cards, given Magic names
What this set is
Universes Within is Wizards' name for in-universe versions of Universes Beyond cards. When a crossover card is sold through Secret Lair, its game text also gets a Magic name and setting, and that version is the card's Oracle name. Greymond, Avacyn's Stalwart is one: the same card as its crossover printing, under an Innistrad name.
The SLX code collects thirty of these printings. The card catalog dates them in four groups, from March 2022 to April 2025, each matching a Secret Lair drop from 2020 to 2023. Every one is legal in Legacy, Vintage and Commander.
The practical effect for a Commander player is that the crossover printing and the Universes Within printing are the same card for deckbuilding and legality, so a deck list can use either.
Where You Can Play It
Format legality
All thirty cards are legal in Commander, Legacy and Vintage, the same as their Secret Lair printings.
These cards first appeared in Secret Lair rather than a Standard set, so they were never Standard-, Pioneer- or Modern-legal. Commons from any set are Pauper-legal; that isn't listed per set here.
