Description

Defenders of Equestria is the name of the eighth set released for the My Little Pony Collectible Card Game.

American release: June 16, 2017

Defenders of Equestria has 142 new cards and full suite of two-color card support. It is booster-only (no theme decks).

• 7 Mane Characters,
• 89 Friends,
• 21 Events,
• 8 Resources,
• 7 Troublemakers, and
• 10 Problems.

• 60 Common (C) cards,
• 30 Uncommon (U) cards,
• 30 Rare (R) cards,
• 11 Super Rare (SR) cards, and
• 11 Ultra Rare (UR) cards

There are no Fixed (F) cards in this set, since there are no theme decks or other non-booster products for them to be found in.

There is a 1 in 3 chance for a Defenders of Equestria booster pack to contain a Super Rare, Ultra Rare, or Royal Rare card in place of a Common card.

In addition to the main set, there is also 1 Royal Rare (RR) parallel alternate-art full-card card. This Royal Rare (RR) version is a full-card (borderless) version of 1 Ultra Rare card found in the main set but is otherwise the same as its main set equivalent. There is a 1 in 216 chance for a Defenders of Equestria booster pack to contain a Royal Rare (RR) in place of a Common card (average of 1 per case of 6 booster boxes of 36 booster packs).

The promo set of 10 cards cannot be found in booster packs. All of these Promo (P) cards are alternate-art foiled versions of cards in the main set (none are unique to the promo set).
