Maze of the Master Set Guide

Overview

Maze of the Master is a booster set with Rare as its base rarity, so it has no Commons. 48 of its 111 set codes are Rare, and 16 cards also come as Collector's Rares.

It mixes new cards with reprints. 59 of its 111 cards are new, first released with the set on March 13, 2025. The other 52 are reprints going back to 2005, and most of them are the Rares numbered MZTM-EN061 to EN110.

Two cards come at Quarter Century Secret Rare. Silent Magician LV8 (MZTM-EN000) is printed only at that rarity, and Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon (MZTM-EN091) also comes as a Rare.

Cards and rarities

Maze of the Master has 111 set codes, each starting MZTM-EN and printed under the artwork on the right. Where a card comes at more than one rarity, every version shares its code, so the table counts set codes at each rarity and a code printed at two rarities is counted twice.

The 16 Collector's Rares share their set codes with a Rare, Super Rare, Ultra Rare or Secret Rare version, so they count twice. The catalog does not list a rarity for 22 of the set codes yet (21 new cards and the reprint Buzzsaw Shark, MZTM-EN046), so those are left out of the rows. Set completion in TurnZero HQ counts the distinct set codes you own against the set's total, so a card printed at two rarities counts once, with an every-rarity count beside it for collectors chasing each version.

Themes

Most of the new cards in Maze of the Master support existing themes. The largest groups are Temple of the Kings with its Apophis and Serket cards, Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon, the A-to-Z Union monsters, Trickstar, Clear, Performage and Allure Queen.

The Man with the Mark

MZTM-EN001

When Normal or Special Summoned, it adds Temple of the Kings or a Spell/Trap that mentions it from your Deck to your hand, or sends it to the GY. While you control Temple of the Kings, it and your Apophis monsters cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects.

Anubis the Last Judge

MZTM-EN003

Special Summoned from your hand or GY while you have 3 or more differently named Temple of the Kings and Trap cards in your GY, by placing 2 of them on the bottom of the Deck. It can also send itself from your hand to the GY to search The Man with the Mark.

Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Primal

MZTM-EN011

If a Dragon Xyz Monster is on the field, it Special Summons itself from your hand to either field as a Quick Effect. When it is Summoned, its owner adds a Tachyon Spell/Trap from their Deck to their hand.

Seventh Tachyon

MZTM-EN016

Reveal a Number Xyz Monster numbered 101 to 107 in your Extra Deck to search a monster with its Type or Attribute and a Level equal to its Rank, then put a card from your hand on top of the Deck. For the rest of the turn you can only Special Summon Xyz Monsters from the Extra Deck.

X-Cross Cannon

MZTM-EN018

Special Summons itself from your hand if you control a LIGHT Machine Fusion or Union monster. In your Main Phase it equips an appropriate LIGHT Machine Union monster from your Deck to itself.

Golden Allure Queen

MZTM-EN058

A Link-3 for 3 Spellcaster monsters. When Link Summoned it Special Summons an Allure Queen monster from your Deck or GY, and once per turn, when your opponent activates a card or effect, it destroys 1 card on the field.

Cards worth knowing

A few cards work outside the set's main themes. Four worth knowing:

Mulcharmy Purulia

MZTM-EN083

If you control no cards, discard it to draw a card each time your opponent Normal or Special Summons from the hand this turn. In the End Phase, your hand is cut back to the number of cards they control plus 6.

Ancient Gear Statue

MZTM-EN045

Special Summons itself from your hand if your opponent controls more monsters than you. Tribute it to Special Summon Ancient Gear Golem or a monster that mentions it from your hand or Deck, ignoring its Summoning conditions.

Schwarzschild Infinity Dragon

MZTM-EN013

If you control no monsters, or your opponent controls a monster with 2000 or more ATK, it Special Summons itself from your hand and a Level 8 LIGHT or DARK Dragon from your Deck with its effects negated. That turn you can only Special Summon Dragon Xyz Monsters from the Extra Deck.

The Duke of Demise

MZTM-EN033

A Fusion of 2 Fiend and/or Zombie monsters that cannot be destroyed by battle and costs 500 LP each Standby Phase to keep. In your Main Phase it gives you a Normal Summon, and from the GY it adds a Level 4 or higher Fiend or Zombie to your hand.

Playing it

Nothing in Maze of the Master is on the Forbidden & Limited List as of October 1, 2026, so a deck can run three copies of any card in it.

Many of the reprints sit beside the new cards they support. The Temple of the Kings cards name Temple of the Kings, reprinted here at MZTM-EN097, and Apophis the Serpent searches Embodiment of Apophis (MZTM-EN104). Seventh Tachyon works with Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon, Clear Phantom searches Clear World, and Golden Allure Queen can Special Summon the reprinted Allure Queen LV3, LV5 and LV7.
