MaRo's Bloomburrow Teaser

Mark Rosewater gave his traditional teaser with the following hints.[1]

First up, here are some things you can expect:

  • A new mechanic which is a tweak on a mechanic from 2013 —
  • "Destroy target creature" (a spell with only this rules text) gets a new mana cost —
  • A cycle of uncommon lands that each reference four creature types — The Villages
  • Counters in the set: +1/+1, blight, coin, finality, flood, flying, indestructible, loyalty, stash, stun, and supply
  • A noncreature subtype makes its first return —
  • A ten-card cycle that acts as typal glue —
  • Two mechanics that came out in the same set return each part of a different two-color archetype —
  • The word “Squirrels” shows up four times in rules text —
  • A mythic cycle with a new symbol —
  • One of the cutest mechanics we’ve ever made —

Here are snippets of rules text, you’ll see:

  • "Create X tokens that are copies of target token you control." —
  • "If you control a Raccoon, you may discard a card." —
  • "Creatures your opponents control have base toughness 1." —
  • "Whenever one or more other creatures you control leave the battlefield without dying," —
  • "if it’s the first instant spell, the first sorcery spell, or the first Otter spell" —
  • "put a flood counter on target land." —
  • "where X is the number of creatures you opponents controlled that were exiled this turn." —
  • "for each other Squirrel and/or Food you control." —
  • "As long as there are four or more card types among cards exiled with CARDNAME," —
  • "up to one target artifact, creature, or planeswalker an opponent controls loses all abilities until your next turn." —

Here are some creature type lines from the set:

  • Creature – Hamster Citizen —
  • Creature – Frog Advisor —
  • Creature – Skunk Assassin —
  • Creature – Raccoon Berserker —
  • Creature – Squirrel Warlock Bard —
  • Creature – Rabbit Mouse —
  • Legendary Creature – Badger Warrior —
  • Legendary Creature – Weasel Mercenary —
  • Legendary Creature – Elemental Elk —
  • Legendary Creature – Bird Dragon —

Finally, here are some names in the set:
