Each set consists mostly of cards released in previous Magic: The Gathering expansions, but in foil and sometimes with new artwork. Some From the Vault decks contain a pre-release of a card due to be released in the next Magic: The Gathering expansion. Typically, the boxed set also contains a 20-sided spin-down life counter die in addition to the cards.

Because From the Vault releases are not normal expansion sets, the tournament-legality of the cards depends on the most recent normal expansion they were printed in.

The following is a list of the released or announced From the Vault sets:

Premium Deck Series

Premium Deck Series was a set of preconstructed 60-card Magic: The Gathering decks. All cards were foil and were reprints of cards first printed in other Magic sets.[10] All of the cards are black bordered and tournament legal in their original formats.

There have been three Premium Deck Series printed:

  • Premium Deck Series: Slivers was released November 20, 2009. All creatures in this deck were of the Sliver subtype (including the mythic-rare Sliver Overlord).[11]
  • Premium Deck Series: Fire & Lightning was released November 19, 2010. The set was mono-red and revolved around Elemental creatures and various red spells that dealt direct damage to creatures or opponents.[12]
  • Premium Deck Series: Graveborn was released November 18, 2011. The set revolved around cards that deal with the graveyard.[13]

In July 2012 at Comic Con it was announced that the Premium Decks Series would be discontinued after Graveborn.
