The statline "Other creatures are Food in addition to theire other types" is a really cool mechanical expression of an apex predator, and putting it in the set that has the cutest creatures in the games history was certainly a choice.
I personally love it.
I usually have zero interest in playing Golgari commanders but that one line of text makes me want to build it so badly. I want to chomp up all of my creatures, huge flavor win imo
token moment
@@sagecolvard9644 man, I want to make a commander deck around that wolf with a ton of fight spells in it. Let the bugger go hunting
it's kind of odd flavour that it makes them all artifacts
but I've been keeping my eye out for stuff in Green that does artifact stuff, so this is a great contender to take the Commander spot from Oviya Pashiri or someone in that project.
This is why I really miss block formats. Imagine staying here for a year instead of getting excited for a month before we're whisked off to some other set we're supposed to care about suddenly. It's exhausting.
This is a charming, beautiful environment - shame we won't have time to appreciate it at all.
Yes, having 3 sets here would be awesome
Alternatively, they are taking MUCH bigger setting swings than they ever have specifically because they don't have to stay in a setting that may be unappealing for too long. Though I do generally agree, release schedules are bananas, its baffling that people even attempt to keep up.
Hell, I would even take a 2 block of this set. It feels like too much content to just shove into a single set. It took the OG ravnica 2 sets to fully explore all 10 guilds. I don't think this set with it's 300 ish cards will be able to explore all the fractions fully as well as the calamity beasts.
It goes the other way too, though: MKM was a pretty unpopular set, could you imagine taking half a year to unravel a mystery that nobody seemed to care about? I would love to see a return to this plane but I value the flexibility more. Plus they can just go to a plane twice in a row like they did with the 2022 Innistrad sets
I wouldnt want to be here for that long, not very excited about it.
Sets like these make me wish Wizards would go back to three expansions per block so we could have even more
That would get in the way of Bluey or whatever other secret lair they're dropping
I was honestly thinking the same
For real!
Fully agree! I want a whole year here!
Wish Wizards has a 1,000 cards base set that last for 5 years, so my cards don’t rotate out every year…
"Your favorite Planeswalkers and creatures have been utterly transformed"
*shows Chatterfang, continuing to be a squirrel*
He's now deadlier. Now he goes infinite with himself 😂😂
Lmao. Chatterfang becomes dad. Everyone else loses the game.@@collinbeal
Should have shown Ral and said "otterly transformed".
Not to mention they left out squirrels for the tribal buffs in this set...because that makes sense...don't worry though...they gave it to the bats. Cuz those guys are always in the same mana color...fml.
@@SirEldricIVI am now extremely angry that they didn't use that. Thanks alot.
Haven’t been this excited since Kamigawa set.
Hi fellow Kamigawa enjoyer
Apparently Google doesn't approve of your Grammer and needed to translate you to "its" proper English.
"We are a fellow Kamigawa Enjoyer".
saammee - Loved Kamigawa and looking forward to this 'Redwall' set ;)
have you been playing a tribal samurai deck? I'm looking at a cheap 50$ CAD one with great art, but the art seems fuzzy, from online picture. Looking at the Mardu commander who double triggers on attack
Same!
What a breath of fresh air for Magic The Gathering!
too sad it is just one set... I'd like to have a block... the art, the theme... it's all like Lorwyn... the style I like the most
@@riverfilms4548 god same, I would love for even a two block set in this world, doesn't even have to be the full three blocks of old.
Blocks get in the way of the Fortnite sets
@@riverfilms4548 I think they try to test water rn. Help making this set success, could be a great start for having more set like this in the future.
@@riverfilms4548 Yeah, even the published accompanying story seemed criminally short. There's so many questions I want explored that are left hanging. We didn't learn anything about what the calamity beasts are, or their purpose/legend in Bloomburrow.
credits for the animators next time in the video description, they really deserve it
Brazen Animation!
A childhood love of the Redwall books has now come to card form!🥰
I was just thinking this gives me serious Redwall vibes.
Redwall, Secret of NIMH, & Watership Down just jump out to me - which are some of my absolute favorite fantasy worlds so this set has me enamored. It speaks to my childhood, I really love this one
I'm also so jazzed to feel like a kid reading Redwall again!
Wizards saw what Leder Games did with Root, and wanted a piece of the pie.
You should check out mouseguard. They are awesome graphic novels
This may be the first set I want to try and get one of every card from, so excited!
Same!
Same
Same
Same here!
Agreed 100%!
This is a 10/10 set design. Holy cow
Holy Cow would be jealous if he heard you saying this from OTJ set
Set design or Worldbuilding?
Thank you for adding the names of the artists in every image! it makes it so much easier to look for them :). Much respect from a fellow illustrator. It's all STUNNING
Yes? I didn't even notice this, but based.
so, what are you fellowly illustrating? I also am a great painter of things with chalk, in the streets
“Hey guys should we make more Elf and Goblin support in this set?”
“No…? It’s an animal set”
*Three Tree City*
Yeah, its kind of weird that its extra mana only if you control three or more creatures of the SAME type. Doesnt really jive with what Three Tree City was supposed to be about per the oddly satisfying voice.
Kindred Coffers anyone?
It's not really that good, I mean it's basically worse Nykthos, and that's not really played in either Elves or Gobbos
@@thenumberpie314 Well, it being "basically worse Nykthos" depends on how many Tokens without mana cost you create. ;)
@@thenumberpie314 tell me you’ve never played goblins or elves without telling me.
These are some of the best looking showcase variants we've seen in a while! Probably the best since Wilds of Eldraine.
Old school story book style for the showcase cards will always be a win in my book.
RIGHT!? OG Eldraine had some GORGEOUS treatments too
Wilds of Eldraine was 2 sets ago - not even a year 😂😂😂
This set is amazing. I'm hoping to be able to introduce my 8 year old daughter to Magic with this set. I've played for over 30 years, and I think it's about time to pass that knowledge on to my offspring.
I hope your daughter has the opportunity to roll up to game stores with an utterly busted storm deck and stomp people who are much older than her :D
That's so beautiful!
What a beautiful and fitting set to do so with! :3
Guys this is an ai comment LOL
I did NOT expect classes
Definitely a surprise to see 'em pop up, fun idea to focus them on less adventurous or combative careers.
I figured that they would be the returning noncreature subtype from MaRo's spoiler, but everyone was flapping their gums about it potentially being Junk, and it made me waver a bit.
@@collinbeal I mean the reference to trash in the Gruul cimmander precon was a compelling argument...
@@gamerbear84 I agree, hope we get a baker's talen class!
@@beretperson Considering food seems to be a theme here, I'd be SHOCKED if we don't.
I'm willing to guarantee my ass that this'll be the most popular set this year and most likely in many years.
Because it appears thus far it was crafted with care and takes itself seriously. Wizards has been churning out really uninteresting, visually generic, sterile, corporate product for so long I'm trying not to get my hopes up.
For many of us who've been deeply in love with fantasy universes over the last 30+ years I can assure you hardcore fans don't hate on something for having a gentle or cute factor involved in the process. I loved Lorwyn and the Kithkin as much as I enjoy the older Phyrexian blocks or the soullessness of the plane of Esper, for example. On the contrary, Strixhaven, down to the trailer and presentation, was bogus and shallow from its conception. MtG always stood as a bastion of the highest caliber of fantasy themes and the last few years they've been letting that quality diminish so heavily. Not just artistically but flavor-wise and thematically a lot of sets in recent memory really fell flat. Too many marketing ploys and gimmicks; not core, true MtG.
Again, I really don't want to get my hopes up but I was hooked just from the trailer. Incredible animation with heavy emotion evoked by mere woodland creatures that don't even have dialogue. That's the quality that used to by synonymous with MtG set teasers. A stark contrast to the Strixhaven trailer with the snarky talking book and clip art style animation and oh boy...college fraternities!
It's a shame we will only get one set to tell this story and immerse in this exciting new plane, but beggars can't be choosers.
I'm hoping you're right - that this set will be as successful as it appears it can be. Maybe the money will talk and the suits over at Hasbro will demand quality product.
@@TheRealPDizzleAbsolutely love what you have to say here, but I still don't get why they don't go back to the block style release, that and core sets as ever since they got rid of those they have just tried to find replacements for them in jumpstart and now Foundations. Like we fans want blocks back, come on WOTC
I suspect that a lot people aren't into the cute animal stuff at all, though, me included.
@@numberoftheword in that case you haven't paid attention much as this seems to be very well received and awaited. You are not ma lot of people though. There's always people who don't like it, but it doesn't seem to be "a lot".
I hope it's enough that Wizards/Hasbro decides to return to this plane again sometime soon. Although I guess they operate way ahead of the curve but hey, maybe someone up there will take notice and they'll do a 180.
I love that narrattor sounds like one of those nature documentaries presenter
And a narrator for children's books! gives a magical kind of beautiful vibe
First time a MTG announcement has actually made me feel positive emotions in a long time. Really looking forward to this set.
I second this emotion
First time a MTG announcement has actually made me CRY TEARS OF AWE.
Wizards really did say “child soldiers” I kid, it looks like a very fun set!
not only that, they said "Everyone in bloomburrow cares about their kids. Which is why we're introducing child soldiers"
The spirit of Redwall is strong with this set.
The frog druid and otter wizard are just TOO DAMN CUTE!
Most hyped set of the year let's go!
Back-to-back Bloom and Dusk got my bank account quaking.
I thought modern horizons 3 was the most hyped set this year
@@earldrazi2879 I think, it's close. Both are the most hyped set for different audiences (of course there's always overlap.).
1. MH3 as the set that people expected to have a huge number of playables for modern and commander.
2. Bloomburrow more for it's flavor and feeling like the first "real" magic set of the year as in "it's actually standard playable" and also "doesn't feel like a universe beyond product". I'm not as negative on Outlaws of Thunder junction, but the whole "everybody now wears a cowboy hat"-gimmick wasn't everyone's cup of tea. It feels like the Streets of New Capenna of 2024 in that a lot of people aren't into the theme.
You spelled MH3 wrong
@@fastydave While MH3 offers a fantastic draft experience, I thought everyone else hated it as straight to modern sets tend to invalidate older cards.
That opening animation was awesome 🤩
i agree it looks great, but also seems like a rip off from disney's fantasia
Everything about this set is so charming
That perfectly described my reaction: charmed
These cards look incredible. The art is gorgeous and the story keeps on hitting that childhood storybook nostalgia. I don't play Magic, but this set is dangerously close to changing that. Thank you so much for this great new set!
If you're not interested in other sets but you do like this one, maybe consider a draft/sealed event when the set comes out?
One thing that I'm really loving about the way the animal people are depicted in Bloomburrow is that while different species all have specific cultural things that they do, their morals are seemingly specific to individuals as people, instead of having broad, species-wide factions of good guys and bad guys. The tendency to say "these animals are the good ones, and these animals over here are the bad ones" is THE reason I never got into Redwall, despite how beloved the series is among my generation, and I really appreciate the way Bloomburrow generally takes a more equitable view of its animal people.
Especially the rats. I love the rats.
I'm not too familiar with Redwall, but I find this to be a really interesting comparison, and I totally agree that the unity between these different cultures rather than segregation is so much more intriguing and inspiring.
To be fair though the individual villains are very Redwall. Cruelclaw anyone?
That bugged me about Redwall too. It seems Wizards took the best parts of the “anthropomorphic mice” genre-courage, friendship, kindness, celebration of each other’s differences-while leaving out the negative.
Not only are otters izzet colors (my fav), but we get Ral AS AN OTTER! Couldn’t be happier 😊.
Tal was already an otter though.

Replying for algorithm points.
@@tomevans2499lol thanks!
thank you
I like the basic lands full art
Same, wanted a prerelease pack as it comes with 8 play booster in some of my LGS. But the lands........
they are just flat out my new favorite full art lands... I think I may have to get play set for each season as well.
MTG has never looked better… this set has reunited my love and encouraged me to start again
Magic the Gathering really needs to make their own animated cartoons one set of cards is an entire season of cartoon episodes
I am so happy with Bloomburrow!!! Story, cards, art, everything!
Bloomburrow is one of my most hyped Sets of the last 20 years. ❤
@@SebboLabs You're quite simple then.. This set is going to be ballz. 100% chance you're a furry and on a neighborhood watch list.
@@fastydavewhat’s wrong with you, did you never have a childhood?
@@coolbirdonah he’s too cool for lighthearted fun
@@coolbirdo
I think his reaction says more about him than anything.
Kastral might finally be the one for bird tribal decks
I was hoping for Bant birds, but this is sweet too.
It's time 🤯👍
I am building a bant birds and this will help
So Wizards, are we going to see a Bloomburrow D&D setting book? Come on, you know you want to, after all Humblewood is one of the most popular 3rd party settings and now you've got your 'official' version of it.
Yes!!!
Root RPG already exists if you want a p&p in a similar setting.
The art alone makes this set S tier
Finally a set that's reminiscent of Lorwyn, i hope they do a block set like that too.
Lorwyn is coming back in 2025 I think
I started playing when Lorwyn came out XD got the FAT PACK remember those
@@Paul20661 I started right before Alara came out, so I missed Lorwyn by a year I think. Kamigawa was right between them. I still bought a bunch of Lorwyn stuff though. A lot of my cards are stored in fatpack boxes haha
@@The2ndnothing 😮 no way, I hope they don't mess it up!
I adore the visuals , especially when we see makeshift gear from small things like leaves and nuts. Rather than just human clothes on animals
This narrator is kind of everything to me right now. Amazing.
That mouse looks like Mrs. Johnathan Brisby from The Secret of NIMH.
I just watched this movie two days ago. It's beautiful. The stone magic was weird, but I think it represents, how advanced technology always feels magical to people who not yet understand it.
@@rasendestroyer2701 I like to think that stone was actually magic. It just makes more sense to me personally.
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic"
@@Horrorcrusher8312 This was confirmed to be the case by Don Bluth, himself.
@@Sweetroll_Wolfie That the necklace was magic?
This will be the best set in years, cant wait to pre order!!!
Bot!
Why would you pre order a set that’s going to be mass produced? You are either a paid shill or a bot account.
@@ChrisMusson-kv8ph I wish I was a bot tbh
ngl, I learned my lesson
always be careful with preorders
Honestly ths only thing that'll make me regret this preorder is if the card quality is crap.
Everything shown so far has been beautiful. Don't really care if its powerful I want to build a deck with these.
I hope WOTC and Hasbro can learn a lesson from this set. That being when you make a set that has people this stoked you better have a block for it, and not just give it one month to sit in stores before the next set comes out. No wonder power creep has been so bad recently, they wont stop pumping out products!!! I'm not completely against universes beyond but it feels like that's the company's priority rather than making and developing there own IP. If you look back and the golden age of standard and arguably recent magic the kaladesh-ixalan blocks all got at least two expansions before they moved on to the next plane and I personally love those sets so much, Kaladesh and Aether Revolt being my favorites as that's when I got into MTG. But Wizards, come on please, I know you and Daddy Hasbro want all the money you can drain out of our pockets but just give us less product per year, I know I don't want twelves sets a year and at least one product has dropped a month or felt like it sense Outlaws of Thunder Junction. Just give it a rest, give us more sets per block and less products per year, makes the buildup more fun, the power creep less, and gives us more time with amazing set concepts like this!!!! also my personal take reprint any land that is over like 8 bucks, nobody should have to drop hundreds of dollars on lands so they can build a top of the line competitive and strong mana base.
Around 2020/21, I wrote wizards an email about doing a Brian Jacques Redwall crossover, a series that growing up was near and dear to my heart. I remember getting blocked or something by the admin which was sad but now we have Bloomburrow!!! Not sure if it is coincidence but I am so excited for this release I can’t even express it enough. This is the essence of what magic is to me since ‘94. And all of the creature and class types are so hilariously adorable I can’t stop from cheesing. Thank you Wizards, this is the magic that I grew up with.
With Love,
Tamiyo is so adorable oh my god. They need to make plushies of them.
I’d love a dnd campaign book with this plane and playable races from this set
This array of artworks is the best MTG has seen for a standard set, in years.
They didn’t reveal the name for that one squirrel with the one bad eye, that has to be Chatterfang…
where is that unrevealed squirrel?
@@afonsomendes92 14:08
@@OGDanteZero nice catch, Def chatterfang
It is Chatterfang. It has the same bone necklace, eye and stripes on head.
Probably on the special guests list, probably the full art version/anime art version.
Finally, a fully realised concept!
I like that Finneas is basically the young rabbit archer from Disney's Robin Hood, all grown up 😊
Good ol' Skippy. ^w^
Mouse Guard as Magic?! Yes plz
These statlines are WILD. Standard's about to get aggro! Love love love the theme of this set!
REDWALL!!
Eulalia!!
Sparra Kill! Kill! Kill! Eeeeeeeee!
Give 'em blood and vinegar!
For Martin the Warrior!
LOGALOGALOGALOGALOOOG!!!
@@BakingAndGhibli based :D
What, what!
Deus vult
Three tree city looks pretty cool, like nykthos but for creature types.
Now this set feels like a Magic set. Wish we had another set right after still on this plane.
I appreciate you including the artists' names with each image! It really facilitates the process of finding them:). Huge admiration from another illustrator. Everything is AMAZING.
that otter planeswalker looked pretty nice
So this is Magic x Redwall
And I'm 100% here
Where have you been? This is 100% that
I’m digging it. The trailer was beautiful, the art on the cards are fantastic, and prospect of playing a deck built around tweaked out raccoons rocks.
We need a universes within dockside retrain about a raccoon stripping copper wire lol.
Out of all the sets released this year I figured Duskmourn would be the one I'd be most interested in but ngl this peaks my interest.
Chatterfang is happy
Bro might become part of the 99 after this set
@@ohcrapnotyou7323I don't think any of the new squirrels will outclass Chatterfang's power and capability to fill the board with tokens (but I think hes included in the Squirreled Away precon as a 99 anyway).
@@FelipeLundgreen how do you know that? I wouldnt expect that
@@afonsomendes92 14:08
time to make some squirrels EDH deck
This is perfect for my Wilds of Eldraine precons 💚
This is the most excited I've ever been for anything ever.
Flubs, the fool comes straight from the raider-white tarot illustration. Surprisingly Interesting set...
The bats at star gazers is certainly a choice, but the design team does 100% understand squarels.
That and the Big Cat making all creatures food is just brilliant flavor.
I'll never be able to look at squirrels the same way again.
a secret of nimh set? i approve
also this video really made me want to play dnd in this world
The design team is fully aware of squarels, but the bats at Stargazers are undoubtedly a choice. That plus the Big Cat preparing food for all living things is just fantastic flavor.
This is the cutest thing I've ever seen. Why is this not a D&D set by the way? I love everything about it.
This looks like a genuinely fun set! Can't wait!
Finally a set that feels magical again and not some weird mishmash of other genres
Oh my, now im worried about the Trauma Duskmourn will cause once it hits standard together with this set 💀
My daughter is going to be stoked about the rats. She started with eldraine so rats were big for her and shes consistently improved her first prerelease set since.
Wow they Finaly manage to make a set on a new planes that I'm looking foward to! Good job!
The birds and the mice are friends? Okay, then...
Still, this set looks beautiful and really captures a more traditional MTG feeling. A breath of fresh air.
Hopefully there isn't a large contingent of shrikes 😢😢
Well if the birds eat seeds and bugs it makes sense. Plus these birds seem to be smaller and cuddlier than most birds-of-prey.
This was such a well done intro to the set! I have enjoyed the evolution of these set intros over the past few years
The awesome part is that this plane still has room to show animal folks that are 3 mana based and 4 mana based. Despite of (or perhaps because of) being depicted as a tiny people plane it has the most room for growth.
3:30 "...a might peek that no-one but a brave birdfolk can reach." Looking more closely at the card, we can see a mouse with a hang glider who's ready to put that to the test!
If the mouse can reach it, they're an honorary bird.
Finally a set to grab my interest since Lord of the Rings. Loving the nostalgic Redwall vibes.
Oh, look! It's Humblewood!
Outstanding card art from Vincent Christiaens, Omar Rayyan, Raluca Marinescu, Campbell White- this is top-tier talent. Been playing since 1995 and this looks to be some of the best artwork I've seen in the game, which is saying something given how much amazing work there's been over the years.
Man, is that Corrin Evertail?
Can't wait
For a moment when they said "band together" I was like... Yay Banding!
Darnit, this would have been the perfect set to bring back BANDING
I am greatly interested! Looks promising and intriguing. This has potential to be my favorite set thus far.
Outstanding animation. I love the call backs to Secret of NIMH and Redwall. CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS.
Would love to see this as an open-world rpg! Such a fantastic plane
I have never been interested in Magic The gathering... until I saw this video.There's something about it that calls to me. I am a huge fan of the Redwall series. I LOVE this. I feel like even if I never learn how to play the cards.Collecting them to just looking at them will be awesome.
Looks so good! Can't wait!
So excited to experience this
First set in a while I've felt connected to and been excited about.
This is the first set in a while that really feels like Magic. I'm in love with this set already.
Best set this year ❤
The animations in this are incredible
Redwall meets MTG... My childhood has returned! 🙏💙
This set reminds me of the Redwall book series by Brian Jacques. Such a magical set, I havent been excited for one in ages🥹🎊
So excited for this set! Can't wait to make revisit my Chatterfang squirrel deck with cards from Bloomburrow.
Omg this is absolutely what magic needed. A set hasn’t looked this good since war of the spark
I'd binge the hell outta this if it were an anime! Giving serious Redwall vibes!
Man, this makes me want to see an animated MTG movie with this art style.
2:08 am I the only one who got goosebumps right here it’s like a call back to Fantasia 2000 I can’t wait for this setttt
