Maro’s Lorwyn Eclipsed Teaser
Before previews for Lorwyn Eclipsed officially begin, I thought it would be fun to do another of my Duelist-style teasers where I give tiny hints of things to come. Note that I’m only giving you partial information.
First up, here are some things you can expect:
• a planeswalker that makes Kithkin creature tokens
• kindred reprints
• some counters in the set: charge, dream, flying, first strike, indestructible, and lifelink
• another card is the Thirst for ________ series
• another card that makes something a Coward
• a card that tutors every turn
• a new card that copies triggers
• a keyword introduced in 2025 returns
• a number of Lorwyn/Shadowmoor block mechanics have cameos
• some tokens in the set: 1/1 colorless Shapeshifter, 1/1 blue/black Faerie, 2/2 black and green Elf, 3/3 green Elk, and 3/4 green Treefolk
Next, here are some rules text that will be showing up on cards:
• “As this artifact enters, choose Elemental, Elf, Faerie, Giant, Goblin, Kithkin, Merfolk, or Treefolk.”
• “where X is the difference between its power and toughness.”
• “Counter all spells your opponents control”
• “Spend only to cast spells with a mana value 4 or greater.”
• “If this is the third time this ability has resolved this turn,”
• “This creature enters with six -1/-1 counters.”
• “At the beginning of each end step, if you put a counter on a creature this turn,”
• “You may cast that card without paying its mana cost if the spell’s mana value is less than or equal to the amount of life you gained this turn.”
• “Add X {G} or X {W} where X is the number of other creatures you control.”
• “Double all damage that sources you control of the chosen type would deal.”
Here are some creature type lines from the set:
• Creature – Kithkin Ranger
• Creature – Elemental Scout
• Creature – Faerie Assassin
• Creature – Noggle Rogue
• Creature – Goblin Sorcerer
• Creature – Ouphe
• Creature – Giant Mercenary
• Creature – Treefolk Cleric
• Creature – Horse Serpent
• Legendary Creature – Elf Faerie Noble
Finally, here are some names in the set:
• Bark of Doran
• Champions of the Perfect
• Chaos Spewer
• Flitterwing Nuisance
• Gilt-Leaf’s Embrace
• Glister Bairn
• Mirrorform
• Moonglove Extractor
• Moonshadow
• Scuzzback Scrounger
Tune in to twitch.tv/magic on January 5th at 10am PT for your first deep dive into the enchanted world of Lorwyn Eclipsed.
Very excited for this set, and in particular here:
- Treefolk getting more support, specifically Doran it seems
- a planeswalker that makes Kithkin creature tokens
- “Add X {G} or X {W} where X is the number of other creatures you control.”
