Aether Revolt is the seventh Magic: The Gathering - Puzzle Quest set, released in January 2017 in version 1.10 of the game. The set abbreviation is AER, and the set icon (AER) resembles a swirling band of energy being pushed to the sides by a central force.

Emergency Ordinances and Angels' Embrace are Legacy PvP events that were released at the same time as Aether Revolt and feature elements of the set. Revolt against the Consulate is a Legacy PvE event, and Fate is Rarely Fair is a block-restricted PvP event; both were similarly released.

Aether Revolt's release time also saw the debut of the Training Grounds PvP event and the Trial of the Planes Legacy PvP event.

Ajani, Unyielding, Nissa, Vital Force, and Tezzeret the Schemer, all the second of their names, are Planeswalkers that were released at the same time as the set. Ajani has two points lower total mana bonus than normal, and Tezzeret a point higher. All of them have Energize abilities.

Cards

Aether Revolt is a small expansion set, consisting of 68 cards across all rarities except Common.

Like Eldritch Moon and Oath of the Gatewatch, Aether Revolt was a Hibernum expansion set. It was an even-numbered release that did not have its own packs, had its main set's cards offered as rewards in its own events, and had no Commons. Its Planeswalkers even had Kaladesh cards in their Starting Decks, instead of AER cards.

Hour of Devastation was the first set to not be added to the pool of cards of the previous, odd-numbered release.
