Hey as someone new to magic it's great that you actually explain the synergies with other cards and how they work together. Really appreciate the depth!
I can't wait until one of these legendary creatures shows up on a different plane and they aren't an animal anymore. Like everyone who visits this plane becomes an animal when they do so (Kingdom hearts style), Yes, that means any number of these named creatures could be from a different plane. I hope they don't waste that potential
I think you only transform if you planeswalk there, omen paths don't give transformations. So no bloomburrow natives would transform if they left bloomburrow.
You're telling me that if Jace found an Omenpath there he'd just be stomping around at human size?
Portent of Calamity indeed...
@@tinfoilslacks3750 then why don't we see any humans or elves or kor etc in this set? Someone must have used an omen path to get here at some point
I'm curious what an eldrazi or phyrexian turns into on Bloomburrow!
@@priestofsyrinx4931 octopus?
Thanks again for putting all this hard work into creating great content for this set, and the many sets that have come in the past several years. You helped introduce me to the game through your videos, and now my friends and family play because of you! Your videos really help me look at every card and see their quality.
I think you're forgetting that the Rottenmouth triggers accumulate. So the ETB hits once, then the first attack hits twice, etc. It's not a potential for 14 damage on first swing, it's a potential for 18 damage. The viper + lavaspur boots to attack can pretty easily happen on turn 4 in standard with Orzhov, and sounds like a problem to me.
I thihk everyone is underselling how powerful effects that grant haste are with viper. Because the triggers are cumulative, getting one turn "ahead" on them with haste is crazy. Instead of 1 stack on the first turn it's 3. Instead of 3 stacks on the second turn it's 6. T5 Aclazotz T6 Viper + haste is potentially 4 cards ripped from a hand, or 12 viper damage if Aclazotz' trigger resolves first and leaves them no cards to pitch.
I think black is coming up on a critical mass of discard/hand rip cards that is going to make them just stupid to play against.
@@tinfoilslacks3750 playing Hopeless Nightmare to get a discard, damage, and a permanent to sac to the viper while getting scry 2 out of it seems really strong to me
Lvd just made this exact deck, it turned out to be okay. Looks fun to play though
Also I just realized, snake wearing shoes, disqualified for flavour fail
Wizards: Here, have all these discards.
Me: *looking at Obstinate Baloth:* 'Your time has come'.
The haymaker is using a scythe, used to cut down and make hay. The huge swinging movement is why they named the punch after it.
I think...
Its name is bayler….haybailer…so many puns with its clever name
Came for the card evaluations, stayed for the Utena reference
So I'm just realizing that Bloomburrow's offspring mechanic (and stuff like coiling rebirth's 1/1 creature copies) is very similar to a LoR card called Condense. And that card was easily a top 50 card in that game. I'm surprised we didn't get a direct analog of it (summon a 1/1 non-legendary copy of a creature you control).
Offspring looks like a 9/10 mechanic and I hope we return to bloomburrow soon to expand on it, or hell reuse it in Lorwyn!
Mentionning Akio like that, I wasn't ready at all XD.
Will watch after work. I just did a quick skim over on brake.I'm pre-releasing tomorrow 😊
This guy is such a character. Sign me up for a Commander game, a six pack and a pizza with this dude anytime.
I've said it before, but Season of loss looks like a sideways Meat hook massacre
Dour Port-Mage I just realized works against your opponents exile removal. So even a sunfall lets you draw a card. 2 cards if you have the mana to bounce in response!

The puns in this set are downright hilarious. My favorite: Downwind Ambusher. An Assassin Skunk.
Love the entire set, making a Rat Ninja Commander set with Vren, the Relentless.
It will always take me less than a second to click the notification for Dev's new vids once I see it!
It's probably worth noting that Gev is a Mercenary, which is one of the 5 types that make up Outlaws. Almost all the Lizards in Bloomburrow are Outlaws, so it looks like this set has provided a lot of support for the Rakdos Outlaws archetype that WotC established in OTJ.
Also, many of the BLB Lizards either commit crimes (by targeting) or otherwise gain benefit if the enter after an opponent has lost life that turn. I'm not sure that there's anything there just yet, but it does feel like there are some pieces coming together.
New class cards are really exciting for me
1:17:23 "...and honestly I think she's getting all the benefit from that" Brooooo Dev, you made me spit out my drink I laughed so hard 🤣🤣
Yeah I agree. Shit was too funny lol
I think the reason people aren't so high on Thundertrap Trainer is because it's basically an Augur of Bolas with 1 less toughness, which was good because it was playable in control decks as a blocker with the 3 points of toughness. I'm not sure which decks would ever really be wanting to play Thundertrap at 6 mana, and in that case if they want to play it at 2 mana it's worse than an uncommon that's been around for years.
There are so many insanely good cards in this set. I appreciate you sharing with us the top 50 cards. Thank you for the video.
Power Creep is real with this set.
cards are coming up on adjacent screens and dueling it out to knock each other out of the meta Incredibles Reveal Scene style, and Sunfall is just clearing house, but then the silhouette of a rabbit comes up on the other screen....
(or Bugs Bunny's head chomping a carrot if you'd like)
this actually happens for Strictly Better and other powercrept cards like the Watchwolf
I think rottenmouth Viper is the coolest card I've seen in years. I want to play it I every possible way and I've been messing with ways to do it ever since you showed it to me. The white token strategy or like a mono black discard where you play bodies that discard and then you don't care if you sacrifice them and very likely they don't have any cards left to kill it. Golgari food, orzhov blink effects, dimir control/cloning or reanimated, I love this card. I LOVE this card. So it's probably bad D:
Few days before watching this i found Parting Gust for my orzhov standard deck and the more i play it the more busted it is. It pretty much replaces go for the throat plus it can also work as a blinking spell. And then i click on the video and Dev mentions it at the very beggining.
The hunt at pre-release went well. I got 80% of the busted cards I was looking for 😊
Eluge is looking better in older formats. I've been speculating for a while that a mono blue Moon style deck was being released piecemeal by last 2-5 sets. I suspect Modern merfolk might play this top end to enable islandwalk and lock mana-greedy decks out of crucial colors. Even outside of Merfolk, Tolarian Terror and Harbinger of Tides alongside Winter Moon seems like a deck worth investigating with the right interaction to support it. I envision a new Blue Moon control honestly.
All in the scope of best of one standard, my thoughts (this is for me, not a critique of devs opinions)
50: fringe
49: jank but maybe?
48: worse tolarian terror
47: second tier deck, can refill your hand granted you have some artifacts sitting around after a wipe
46: very versatile, possible 1st tier deck
47: second tier deck, can refill your hand granted you have some artifacts sitting around after a wipe
46: very versatile, possible 1st tier deck
43: not great in a vacuum, risky to play it into an existing board - tier 3 deck
42: this will be an every lizard deck, lizard deck looks to be tier 2 most likely, bordering on tier 1
41: bat deck is tier 2/1. Deep cavern bat is was too good, but it can be easy too good in other decks. Probably tier 2. All things considered, most of the subtypes introduced are tier 2 on average, they did a good job balancing then as far as I can tell
41: will disappear after the first 2 weeks
39: had protection, exiles card, decent stats. Tier 1
38: Too much many for a 1/3. Tier 3 unless it sneaks into a legend deck
37: new deluge but worse, tier 2. Will go in budgety control decks
36: two mana 4/4+ with trample that dodges cut down is scary, but the deck that it's in might not be strong enough. Card itself is 0 tier but will see play in tier 2 decks where it will absolutely decimate you with a good start
35: tier 1
35: tier 2, lands are not yet good enough
34: tier 3, but I would love to be proven wrong, seems like an interesting card. Might need more support from lands
32: tier 1
31: tier 2
30: tier 1, you have control over when the opponent draws a cars with this and that can be worked around
29: horrible, why would I want to refill my opponent's hand instead of just wiping the board
Hey Dev, it's not something I think you've done before but I'd love to see a top X "future proofed" cards list. Like a list of cards that might not be good now, but are just waiting to be broken by a future card that synergizes with them disproportionately well. Like Maha isn't incredible, but it immediately becomes a problem card if Standard gets a good card with a static ability that reduces toughness. Storm splitter is a 4 mana red mythic, but if standard puts out good enough instants to use alongside it's an issue.
Not sure exactly what to call these, maybe cards to consider for future set releases?
1-drop Bouncy Frog + Plumecreed Escort + the Gift Counterspell + Dour Port-Mage + the Peel From Reality effect + Dawn's Truce if we're in White; Snakeskin Veil is still in Standard; are we Bogles yet?
Thundertrap Trainer is gonna be the most played card of the set.
You had my curiosity, but Akio from Utena got my attention. 😂
just got the bundle pulled a fire and ice special guest from it. was very happy then ..... I started reading the commons and uncommons , this set is absolutely busted. I mean like blue and green instants in this set are pure value . Simic decks eating good.
Isn't zoraline basically lurrus but also cheats on mana? I guess the finality counter is a good way to stifle power a bit. But imagine it in a solemnity deck.
Some of the art work in new set is just 👌 👌 like eluge
You won my subscription by heaping praise on Elas. Banger content.
You are the hardest working MTG TH-camr. Thank you for everything you do!
Loving your selection, Bloomburrow is the best! 🌸🎴
Can't freaking wait for this set!! Alllll the animals! 😻 But alll the tokens too! 🤘🏻
I've felt that rant about the Plumecreed Escort. I recently had a 5 player game where I had to destroy a God Pharoah's Statue, then another person pulled it out of the graveyard, and I had to destroy it again. Then was 2nd out! Yall wouldn't even be playing without me! 🤦♂️🤷♂️😂
Starfall Invocation is Blood on the Snow, except its one less mana creature only. Thats really good
I played Hugs, Grisly Guardian in prerelease and won for the first time ever. The hype for that card is legitimate.
In regard to Coiling Rebirth, I am thinking of adding him to my Chatterfang commander deck and reanimating a Deep-Forest Hermit (thus getting two of them and making all kinds of 3/3 squirrels).
I pulled a three tree city and I'm definitely thinking about putting it in my upgraded Tricky Terrain Deck.
Mistbreath Elder was amazing in my prerelease. If my opponent couldn’t deal with it by turn 4ish it was too big to kill and I usually had protection for it
I think Rottenmouth Viper read better than it will perform. You have to sacrifice your boardstate for it to work. In commander however... this is a very cheap and sneaky aristocrat wincon piece.
Build your boardstate, with a couple payoffs, but no sacrifice outlets on board. The sacrifice being part of the cost means your opponents can't interact with it? even if they counter the Viper, all your drain/ping triggers will still hit the stack.
Stunned that you didn't point out the interaction between Flamecaller and Vinelasher. Seems like exactly your thing
I think that deck will want to stay black/green, not take on red as another color, but I could be wrong
@@Goldy01 idk I think black/red lizards has a real chance. All that chip damage piles up
Gev interacts with Persist in exactly the way you'd want to go infinite with Murderous Redcap
I'd argue Starfall Invocation is better Sunfall as gifting the card eliminates the 2 mana cost of incubating the token Sunfall leaves while giving you back your most important creature currently on the battlefield. I honestly think this is a safety valve card to deal with the ridiculously quick Mice and Rabbit aggro decks.
hugs are indeed goated. Love the southern common experiences dev, The Place truly feels like home.
So many decent cards in this set don’t die to cutdown. I nominate whiskervale forerunner.
SHHHH, about hugs. It's only 12.99 CAD for now and I want my playset relatively cheap 😢
Im eyeing that Dour Port Mage for my upgraded cycle themed precon, Timeless Wisdom. I've flip flopped so much over it.
Spellgyre and mockingbird gonna be stupid imo. Mockingbird esp...i cant believe how many content creators just overlooked it
Plus plumecreed escort
I really can’t predict how mockingbird will turn out but the potential is really exciting
Dev, you're the best. Looking forward to all your stuff for always
You did miss 1 thing on Rottenmouth, when it attacks it gets another counter so 2 cards or 8 life, 3 cards next turn etc.
I hadn't realized that about Mockingbird
great stuff Dev!
Watching this channel is one of the best distressers 😊
Patchwork Banner: I do see this card being also played in Standard on Creature based Go Wide/Midrange decks. Another Format i could actually see this being played is in Timeless Creature Decks with Black (since you can actually get this card on as early as Turn 2 with Dark Ritual) since the +1/+1 will be a lifesaver against certain Orc Duo that is infesting the format
Ygra, Eater of All: actually, i do see this card being playable in Standard and, specially, Pioneer as a Top end for the both the Insidious Roots Deck (since you can take advantage of all the Plants you can sac in order to pump Ygra) and the Discover Combos that work with Trumpeting Carnosaur (since it's a 5 Mana Card)
Eluge, the Shoreless Sea: This can see play as one of the central cards for Mono Blue Tempo in Standard along with Haughty Djinn and Tolarian Terror and as another Top End for Simic/Temur/Bant Landfall in Pioneer. And could go a little further and said this card will absolutely benefit from Nadu in Modern and Legacy
Dour Port-Mage: This card literally appeared in Aspiringspike's video about viable cards from Bloomburrow for Modern 2 days ago
I didn't read Mockingbird properly. That's a huge difference. But the one things I don't like about it is other clone cards we've had in the last several years can copy non land permanents. Otherwise it's fantastic
Mockingbird is so sick, you can run in it izzet prowess and have functionally 12 great 1 drop prowess
Played in the Prerelease last night at a sold out LGS. The two players that got Rottenmouth Viper ended up 3-0. The card is beyond deviating to play against. I ended up 2-1 with Simic, Eluge and Frog ramp. Got blown out of the water against a Golgari with the Viper. Even if you kill it, it’s just so easy to return to the battlefield or hand.
Dewdrop cure is the perfect card for my silly swarmy uw flyer deck in alchemy i was useing the white chorus for mass recursion and it still probably better with ornithopters around but this can always get me three little dudes🤔
Hey Dev, great video 📸. Not trying to be THAT GUY but you said at the floor Salvation Swan was a removal spell but you can only blink things you control. Thought that was worth pointing out.
Clifftop Lookout is going into Glarb Ramp - Smuggler's Surprise! Sweet card and HE'S A FROGGIE
Dawn's Truce is so OP... Good for aggro decks to get protection from board wipes... Except for Sunfall....
Valley Flamecaller is probably going to come out on top as long as your deck can halt the life gain of Orzhov bats. Muerra looks really good if you can figure out a burn or tall creature deck, or a synergy bomb to boost your mid-range racoons.The other rare giving infinite scry 1 is pretty bland unless you got a strong draw engine in Azorious, and even then do you win with 13 cards in the hand or unsummon your opponent's creatures for an easy swipe?
Abzan frogs are awesome. I feel like we will be playing Control frog tribal with Grolnok as the draw engine.
Bats added to Pioneer are probably going to make a control lifegain with Sheoldred that will be meta. Exile their contra life gain permanents and block their own life gain while letting life drain/gain triggers dominate matches.
Rabbits going to die to removal and need a plot and a haste to catch opponents offguard.
Good call on Mockingbird, that is going to be tier 1 with Rotpriest. Missed Manifold Mouse though!
Just watched this while cooking dinner. Built different, etc
Cards are being looked over HARD in this set. There are a few criminally underpriced hugs, seasons of loss, the white intervention, the mockingbird, the list go's on
Rottenmouth viper would have 2 blight counters on it, if it attacks. 3 triggers in total by the first swing
Great list and overview. Thank you.
Great job dude
Great list.
So is this set the set we've been waiting for in terms of good power level?
Thanks dev great vid!
Season of the Burrow is justified if for no other reason than that it answers the One Ring.
Probably accurate right now because the DPM mage has summoning sickness and can only do it once a turn
The Port-mage is really good sunfall, so it's got purpose
"I am a frog and I am sexy" Chat, clip that lol
Glarb is a generous ruler. What Glarp quacks goes.
Oh god, bat Bob 😂
Did I miss Ygra? I personally don't think it's that great but I figured it'd be on the list. And Sunspine Lynx is definitely good enough to be on the top 25
Dev, I think you're awesome.
I think you misread the rottenmouth viper. It does 4 damage on ETB and 8 on attack or they have to sacrifice 2 things because it’s 4 for each blight counter if I’m reading it right.
So 12 non combat damage in 2 turns plus the 6 combat. Sounds like the games over…..
I'm doing a prerelease tonight - hoping for a bomb pool 😛
57:30 if it attacks it gets second blight counter. Then they lose 8.. not just 4 again
So happy to see shelly at least leave alchemy
Starfall invocation works well with prototype cards
We still have tyrranax rex and Vaultboun tyrant for coiling rebirth. Carnosaur, not even scary, lol
Maha is great, but depending on if it has shell Bat Daddy is just simply the better card
I can't believe it...another Content Creator asking us to comment, just to increase engagement. The nerve.
But, at least it is our favorite Magic Channel asking.
Let's Goooooo
bandit's talent for my aminatou commander deck? Starfall invocation?
Overall I think your list is pretty good. Although I think your criminally underrating Dour Port-mage, it should at the very least be in the top 15, if not higher imo. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
GLARB !!!! :D
For me Season of loss is too much like Invoke Despair. My opponent will always have 2 and I will always loose to 2nd one if I am not already dead
Idk I feel like you could swap Dour Port-Mage with Salvation Swan.
