Wizards of the Coast Issues Mea Culpa Over The Zeta Set Launch Debacle
Wizards of the Coast apologized for a chaotic rollout of Chaos Vault’s The Zeta Set Secret Lair MTG release, saying it was a disaster. Despite warning customers with 24 hours’ notice and a pre-queue system, the launch saw delays, a paused queue, rapid stock depletion, and reports of orders not receiving confirmations. EU buyers reported available-to-out-of-stock transitions as queues froze. WotC is investigating the root cause—whether internal systems issues or external tampering—and pledges to reach out to affected customers and make things right as it untangles what went wrong.
