Magic the Gathering Bloomburrow expansion is their cutest and mightiest expansion ever

Magic the Gathering Bloomburrow is arguably their cutest, tiniest and mightiest expansion set ever. Rather than the typical fantastical creatures of myth you’d see in most other expansions, Bloomburrow takes place in a quaint, non-human plane with denizens the size of mice and a vibe somewhat akin to Wind in the Willows with swords.

Magic the Gathering Bloomburrow game mechanics

Some of the more interesting mechanics of the new Magic the Gathering Bloomburrow expansion include the following: 

  • Offspring: a new keyword found on creature cards allows the tiniest heroes to play their part. By paying an additional mana cost, the player creates a token copy of the original card, except with 1 power and 1 toughness (1/1).
  • Gift: gifts come in all shapes and sizes, but you’ll always receive an advantage in return! By promising the Gift specified on a card to an opponent, such as food tokens or drawing a card, players can receive any number of advantages to help sway the tide of battle.
  • Forage: a new action allowing players to exile three cards from their graveyard or sacrifice a food token to trigger varying effects. Never go into battle with an empty stomach!
  • Valiant: creatures with a brave heart may have this new keyword which triggers bonus effects whenever the card is targeted by a spell or ability.
  • Expend: no resource is wasted as this new rule term tracks how much mana a player has spent throughout a turn, then grants boons depending on the number of mana used while the Expend term was in play.
  • Modal Spells: allow players to adapt to their surroundings by choosing to trigger three different effects listed on this new type of card. Players can spend up to five ‘pawprints’ with each effect costing one, two, or three pawprints to trigger. Effects can be triggered more than once, creating opportunities for powerful combinations!

The set itself consists of 24 Imagine: Courageous Critters Planeswalkers with 42 Showcase Woodland frames to collect and comes in Play Boosters, Collector Boosters, Commander Decks, Prerelease Packs, Bundles and a Starter Set.
