Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What set did Pikemen first appear in?

Answer: Dark

2. Which of these Magic The Gathering expansion sets prior to Ice Age contained basic lands in boosters?

Answer: Arabian Nights

Originally, Arabian Nights was intended to be playable stand alone, so basic lands were included on the common sheet. One mountain was inadvertently left on the sheet when that decision was changed shortly before printing.
3. What basic land was printed in the Arabian Nights set?

Answer: Mountains

4. What is Angry Mob's power if your opponent has 5 swamps and it is his turn?

Answer: 2

Angry Mobs' power and toughness is equal to 2+number of swamps that your opponent controls during your turn. During their turn it is 2-2.
5. What color is Aspect of Wolf?

Answer: Green

6. Black land destruction, sorcery, 2 black casting cost, name it.

Answer: Sink Hole

That is a really great card.
7. What white card ends the game in a draw in 2 turns if it isn't dealt with?

Answer: Divine Intervention

This card was banned for obvious reasons. :)
8. In Beta, they didn't put tap symbols on artifacts, so what did they call artifacts that eventually gained the tap symbol?

Answer: Mono Artifacts

9. Chronicles isn't considered an expansion, but was part of another set. What set?

Answer: Fourth Edition

I dint know why, it just was.
10. What set did the Carrier Pigeon first appear in?

Answer: Alliances

Four casting cost 1-1 flier that lets you draw one card when it comes into play.
11. There is a card that takes away the plainswalk ability, what is it?

Answer: Great Wall

I think there was originally maybe one plainswalking creature, so this was pretty useless
12. Camels have a landwalk ability. What land is it?

Answer: Desertwalk

Non-Basic land walk. Gotta love that =)
13. How much damage does the copper tablet do each round?

Answer: 1

14. What is a Kird Ape's power and toughness if you control a Volcanic Island?

Answer: 1-1

Everyone should know this one.
15. What set was the Kird Ape first reprinted in?

Answer: Revised

16. Unlimited cards have a black border.

Answer: False

Unlimited was the first set to have a white border. The best way to tell the difference between Unlimited and Revised is that Unlimited's printing was much darker and the reproduction was somewhat bad, so the cards are slightly blurred.
17. Now be specific. What part of the card is different between Alpha and Beta cards?

Answer: Edges

It is very hard to tell the difference unless you hold an Alpha card over a Beta card. Then you can see the difference.
18. How many different pictures are there for Stripmine?

Answer: 4

There are 4 pictures on strip mine. The difference in 3 of them is not very noticeable, so I hadn't noticed until someone here pointed it out to me.
19. What is the power and toughness of a Rukh?

Answer: 4-4

The Rukh Egg is only 0-3 but when it dies, you get the Rukh, a 4-4 flier.
20. Magic: 'The Gathering' is printed by WizCo, but what company owns Wizco?

Answer: Hasbro
