Disney Lorcana Attack of the Vine: Complete Set 13 Guide

Disney Lorcana Attack of the Vine is the game's thirteenth set. Prerelease events happened July 17 at local game stores, with wide retail release following on July 24, 2026. Three Pixar franchises join Lorcana for the first time, redesigned classics from Winnie the Pooh, The Little Mermaid, and the Mickey Mouse Gang return, Legendary is the rarest pull tier this set (Set 13 has no Epic, Enchanted, or Iconic cards, unlike Set 11: Winterspell), and a trio of new mechanics (Hunny, Temporary Shift, and Vineling tokens) change how decks get built.

TL;DR: Attack of the Vine (Set 13) had its prerelease and Core Constructed rotation on July 17, 2026, and reaches wide retail release on July 24, 2026. It's 207 cards, the largest Lorcana set yet. Monsters Inc is primarily Amber, Up is primarily Emerald, Turning Red is Ruby. Christopher Robin, Hunny Sage headlines the Winnie the Pooh redesign and breaks the two-ink deck rule for Hunny cards. Booster packs are $5.99 for 12 cards. The confirmed headline collector targets are two Super Rare dual-ink cards, Lilo & Stitch and Belle & Beast, the set's top chase tier since there is no Enchanted or Iconic rarity in Set 13.

Disney Lorcana Attack of the Vine: what is Set 13? (quick answer)

Disney Lorcana Attack of the Vine is Set 13 of the Disney Lorcana trading card game, published by Ravensburger. It introduces characters from Monsters Inc, Up, and Turning Red for the first time, brings redesigned cards for Winnie the Pooh, The Little Mermaid, and the Mickey Mouse Gang, and its rarest pulls sit at Legendary, since the set carries no Epic, Enchanted, or Iconic tier. The set became legal in both Core Constructed and Infinity format on July 17, 2026, prerelease day, the same date Sets 5-8 rotated out of Core Constructed. Wide retail release across all stores follows on July 24, 2026.

What Is Attack of the Vine

Each Lorcana set adds new fictional worlds and mechanics alongside recurring Disney characters. Attack of the Vine pulls from the Pixar catalog for the first time in a full IP sense, and the selection here is genuinely strong. Monsters Inc, Up, Turning Red: these aren't obscure picks. Alongside the debuts, Winnie the Pooh, The Little Mermaid, and the Mickey Mouse Gang return with freshly redesigned cards, which is where the set's most game-changing new mechanic actually lives.

The set name references the Vine, a corrupting force that has been building in set artwork since Whispers in the Well and now becomes a mechanical presence: it spawns Vineling character tokens and turns classic villains into "Created by the Vine" cards. Attack of the Vine is also the largest Lorcana set printed to date at 207 cards, more than any previous release. Each new IP lands in a specific ink color chosen to fit the franchise's personality: Monsters Inc's chaotic scare energy fits Amber's hero-driven identity, while Carl Fredricksen's careful-planner archetype fits Emerald's growth-and-ramp identity better than any character they've assigned there before.

Legendary is what separates Set 13's top pulls from the rest of the set. Attack of the Vine carries no Epic, Enchanted, or Iconic tier at all, unlike Set 11: Winterspell, which introduced those three rarities together. Since Legendary is the ceiling here, the set's true collector ceiling sits at Super Rare and Legendary, and cards at that tier are rare enough that most players will buy theirs on the secondary market rather than pull one directly. This is the collector conversation for Set 13, and it drives prices at the top of the rarity chart.

Set 13 does not include any Enchanted cards. Enchanted, the alternate-art Art Nouveau treatment seen in some earlier Lorcana sets, simply isn't part of this set's print run, so collectors chasing that specific look should look at a set that actually has it rather than Attack of the Vine.

New Characters and Ink Assignments

The four new franchises each land in a specific ink color. Here's the breakdown based on confirmed spoilers:

Amber: Monsters Inc Mike Wazowski, James P. Sullivan (Sulley), and Boo are primarily Amber ink, with additional Sulley and Boo prints in Ruby and Sapphire rounding out the franchise. Amber runs hero-driven, resilient strategies, and the Monsters Inc characters fit that role: Sulley - The New Boss carries Bodyguard, and Boo - In Disguise rewards protecting her alongside an exerted Sulley. Boo has already drawn early community interest: she's a child character with passive mechanics, which is a design space Lorcana hasn't used much.

Emerald: Up Carl Fredricksen, Ellie Fredricksen, and Russell are primarily Emerald ink, with Carl and Russell each getting one additional Ruby print and Ellie also printing in Sapphire; Dug is Sapphire only. Emerald is the growth-and-utility color, which fits Carl's careful-planner personality and Russell's scout resourcefulness. Dug will likely enable friendly-creature synergies given his whole deal.

Ruby: Turning Red Turning Red's red panda transformation gets two separate Temporary Shift cards in Ruby, one for each generation: Meilin Lee, Popular Red Panda (6 ink base, 3 ink with Temporary Shift, 4 Strength/5 Willpower, sings for bonus lore with her Karaoke Queen ability) and her mother Ming Lee, Giant Red Panda (9 ink base, 7 ink with Temporary Shift, 10/10 stats, readies after challenging). They're distinct cards, not two versions of the same character, and both show off the set's flagship new keyword. Ruby backs aggressive strategies and character-heavy boards, which fits the panda transformations well.

Returning classics: Winnie the Pooh, The Little Mermaid, and the Mickey Mouse Gang Attack of the Vine isn't only about new IPs. Winnie the Pooh gets the biggest mechanical spotlight of the three returning franchises through Christopher Robin, Hunny Sage, a dual-ink Amethyst/Sapphire Legendary. His Gather the Party ability lets any card carrying the new Hunny classification join your deck regardless of ink color, breaking Lorcana's two-ink deck-building rule for the first time since the game launched in 2023. His Magical Summons ability tutors a Hunny card to hand for 6 ink as a 4/4. The Little Mermaid and Mickey Mouse Gang also return with redesigned cards, though without a rule-breaking mechanic attached.

Amber and Steel continue with classic Disney princess characters and villain or action-heavy cards.

New Mechanics: Hunny, Temporary Shift, and Vineling Tokens

Attack of the Vine ships with three confirmed mechanics that change deckbuilding and board state, not just the card pool.

Hunny breaks the two-ink rule. Christopher Robin, Hunny Sage (Amethyst/Sapphire) carries a passive ability called Gather the Party: any card with the Hunny classification can go in your deck regardless of its ink color as long as Christopher Robin is in the deck too. Lorcana has run on a strict two-ink deck limit since launch in 2023, so this is the first card ever printed that legally breaks it. His second ability, Magical Summons, lets him search your deck for a Hunny card and add it straight to hand when he enters play for 6 ink as a 4/4.

Temporary Shift is a bounce-back version of Shift. A character with Temporary Shift can shift onto a same-named card in play for a reduced cost, then returns to your hand at the end of the turn with all damage removed and the base form reset. You can shift it back in again next turn at the same reduced cost. The set's two showcase cards are Turning Red's red panda transformations: Meilin Lee, Popular Red Panda (3 ink Temporary Shift cost) and her mother Ming Lee, Giant Red Panda (7 ink Temporary Shift cost, 10/10 stats).

Team is a new classification that unlocks new Shift variants. Team cards represent two characters at once, and any character sharing a name with a member of a Team card becomes a valid Shift target. This is where Combo Shift and Duo Shift come in, letting characters like Sulley and Boo shift together onto a Team card, mechanically reinforcing the set's teamwork theme.

Vineling tokens come from the set's antagonist. The Vine, the corrupting force teased in set artwork since Whispers in the Well, spawns Vineling character tokens and also turns classic Disney villains into corrupted Vineling cards, printed as "Created by the Vine": Ursula, Pete, Gaston, and Scar all get this treatment in Set 13.

Products and What to Buy

Attack of the Vine ships with the standard Lorcana product slate. Here's what's available and what each option is actually for:

Booster packs are 12 cards each at $5.99 MSRP. They're the baseline entry point if you want to build a collection or try your luck at Super Rare and Legendary pulls without committing to a full box.

A booster display is 24 packs. At MSRP that's around $143.76, though actual retail pricing varies. Set 13 has no Enchanted card in its print run, so displays are best valued for their volume of Super Rare and Legendary pulls rather than a guaranteed premium alternate-art slot.

Starter decks are pre-built and legal out of the box. Lorcana typically ships two per major set release, and they usually include a foil promo card not available in boosters. These are the right call for new players who want to play immediately without building from singles.

Prerelease kits (for the July 17 events) contained 6 booster packs plus an exclusive promo. Local game stores ran sealed format tournaments where players built a deck from their 6 packs and played on the spot. It was the fastest way to get cards before the July 24 wide release, and prerelease promos are sometimes worth holding onto.

What to buy based on your goal:

• New player: starter deck, then 1-2 booster packs to get familiar with the new cards
• Casual collector: one booster display for a realistic shot at multiple Super Rares
• Competitive player: wait for spoilers to confirm which Legendary cards see play, then buy singles
• Chase card collector: target the specific Super Rare or Legendary single directly, or buy multiple displays if you're happy with any pull from the top tier

The official product listing is available on the Ravensburger website and TCGPlayer's Disney Lorcana section. For the full retailer breakdown and launch-week pricing strategy, see the Attack of the Vine release date and where to buy guide.

Chase Cards and Rarities

The rarity hierarchy in Attack of the Vine runs from Common at the bottom through Uncommon, Rare, Super Rare, and Legendary at the top. Set 13 does not include the Epic, Enchanted, or Iconic tiers that Set 11: Winterspell introduced; the full 207-card breakdown is 72 Common, 54 Uncommon, 51 Rare, 18 Super Rare, and 12 Legendary.

Super Rare is the tier getting the most collector attention this set, since it's the highest rarity below the top: Lilo & Stitch, Fun-Loving Friends (Amber/Steel) and Belle & Beast, Certain as the Sun (Ruby/Sapphire) are the two headline Super Rare chases, both dual-ink Shift cards using movie-poster-inspired full-bleed art. Sulley & Boo, Scare Buddies (Amber/Ruby) is a third notable Super Rare, the Monsters Inc franchise's top chase.

The Legendary lineup is where Set 13's actual rarest cards sit, since the set has no Epic, Enchanted, or Iconic slot above it. Christopher Robin, Hunny Sage (Amethyst/Sapphire) headlines the returning-franchise Legendaries, and Meilin Lee, Popular Red Panda (Ruby) is the set's Turning Red Legendary. Winnie the Pooh & Piglet, Hunny Mages (Amethyst/Sapphire) is a Super Rare, not part of this Legendary group, and Mike Wazowski's best print, Mike Wazowski, Heroic Climber, is also Super Rare rather than Legendary. In previous sets, alternate-art versions of Amber ink Disney princesses and Amethyst villain cards have generally held the highest secondary market prices; in Set 13, without that alternate-art tier, the Legendary and Super Rare debuts of Monsters Inc and Turning Red characters are the ones drawing the most early collector attention.

Legendary cards matter most for competitive play regardless of the collector conversation above. A Legendary that sees real play in Core or Infinity format will drive demand on its own merits. These are the cards to watch as tournament data comes in following the July 17 Core Constructed legalization and the July 24 wide release.

Format Impact

Lorcana runs two active formats right now, and they feel different enough that which one you play should influence what you buy.

Core Format (Sets 9-13 after rotation) Core format rotated on July 17, 2026, prerelease day, not the July 24 wide release. Sets 5-8, the Year-Two block (Shimmering Skies, Azurite Sea, Archazia's Island, and Reign of Jafar), left Core Constructed that day, leaving Core as Sets 9 through 13. A deck already built on Sets 9-12 cards can add Set 13 pieces without losing anything; a list still leaning on Sets 5-8 pieces needs replacements for whatever rotated out. See the site's rotation guide for the full breakdown of what's leaving and which current decks survive intact.

Practically: Amber decks gain Monsters Inc pieces, Emerald decks gain Up's Carl, Ellie, and Russell, Sapphire support decks gain Dug for utility, and Ruby aggro gains Meilin Lee as a possible threat. None of these are expected to warp Core format immediately, but the Legendary and Super Rare cards, plus whatever gaps rotation left, will take a week or two of tournament data to assess properly. Don't panic-buy based on day-one speculation.

Infinity Format (all sets ever) Infinity format includes every Lorcana set ever printed. The pool is large enough that Set 13 adds breadth without shifting the meta dramatically. The format rewards finding old cards with niche applications, and the new Pixar characters may fit into synergy engines that weren't viable before.

For a full breakdown of how the two formats differ in card pool, rotation risk, and deck investment, see the Core vs Infinity format guide (linked below in Related Reading).

The previous set, Wilds of Unknown (Set 12), is a useful comparison point: it shifted Amethyst and Amber strategies in Core format within its first month. Attack of the Vine is likely to follow a similar adoption curve. If you're curious how Disney Lorcana Wilds Unknown compared as a set, that guide covers the card impact in detail.
