Only the front face of meld cards have an icon in The Brothers' War. The front faces have the titular eldritch moon while the back face have a stylized Emrakul, showing the creature has joined Emrakul's brood. Meld cards in Eldritch Moon have an icon next to their name on both the front and back faces. The rare Argoth, Sanctum of Nature melds with the mythic rare Titania, Voice of Gaea into Titania, Gaea Incarnate.The rare Phyrexian Dragon Engine melds with the mythic rare Mishra, Claimed by Gix into Mishra, Lost to Phyrexia.The rare The Mightstone and Weakstone melds with the mythic rare Urza, Lord Protector into Urza, Planeswalker.There are a further three cards with meld in The Brothers' War: The mythic Gisela, the Broken Blade melds with the rare Bruna, the Fading Light into the mythic Brisela, Voice of Nightmares.The rare Hanweir Battlements melds with the rare Hanweir Garrison into the rare Hanweir, the Writhing Township.The common Graf Rats melds with the common Midnight Scavengers into the common Chittering Host.There are three cards with meld in Eldritch Moon. Whenever the melded card leaves the battlefield, both cards go to the same zone where they each turn front face up again. Midnight Scavengers and Bruna, the Fading Light retrieve their melding counterpart from the graveyard, Argoth, Sanctum of Nature and Hanweir Battlements are lands, The Mightstone and Weakstone is an artifact and Phyrexian Dragon Engine has Unearth. Additionally, to ease the difficulty of having two specific cards in addition to their expensive meld cast, the pairs are designed so that one of the two cards are more difficult to interact with than the other. The card with the action Meld will form the art and name of the card, while the other will have text, stats and types. All meld pairs will exile themselves before melding, and require ownership and control, as to avoid questions of where modifications would go.

One of the two cards has the actual keyword action in its rules text, the other card only has the reminder text: Melds with (card name). A single spell that says "Destroy target creature" will destroy the whole permanent. It can attack and block, has abilities, can be enchanted or equipped, or have counters put on it. If it is one creature, it behaves as any other creature does. A melded card is a single permanent represented by two cards. That single card only exists on the backs of the two other cards. Two cards that meld change into one oversized card on the battlefield.

(Big Furry Monster) and the unreleased mechanic Link. The design of Meld was inspired by the Un-card B.F.M.
