Magic: The Gatherings latest set, Bloomburrow throws us headfirst into a world where the cutest critters pack the biggest punches! This all-animal set is a beautiful change up from MTG's usual tropes, taking us to a charming woodland plane called Valley.
Bloomburrow isn't all sunshine and rainbows. The Valley faces a monstrous threat – the Calamity Beasts. But fear not! Leading the charge are the most unlikely heroes: a courageous mouse named Mabel, her animal companions, and even a planeswalker – Ral Zarek, reimagined as an otter! This playful twist adds a lighthearted touch to the lore, making Bloomburrow perfect for long term players and newcomers alike.
While the heroes are small, their strategies are anything but! Bloomburrow introduces a wealth of new mechanics that encourage innovative play. "Offspring" lets you create miniature versions of your creatures, "Gift" allows you to strategically sweeten the deal for your opponents for temporary benefits, and "Forage" rewards resourcefulness by letting you utilize your graveyard for powerful effects. We also have "Valiant" creatures thriving under pressure, "Expend" rewarding efficient mana usage, and "Modal Spells" offering a multitude of tactical options.
Bloomburrow is a feast for the eyes. Prominent artists like Mitsuhiro Arita and David Peterson bring the animal world of Valley to life with breathtaking illustrations. From the mythic Lumra, Bellow of the Woods, to the key character cards like Helga, Skittish Seer, the artwork captures the essence of the set – cute but fierce.
Whether you're an avid collector or simply appreciate gorgeous cards, Bloomburrow offers something for everyone. Reimagine iconic characters in adorable animal forms. Showcase Woodland frames with intricate details vary based on the animal factions, and the full-art basic lands showcase the stunning seasonal beauty of Valley.
If you're looking for a refreshing MTG experience filled with charm, innovative mechanics, and stunning visuals, Bloomburrow is a must-have.
