Mark "Maro" Rosewater, Head Designer of Magic the Gathering, posted an Ikoria teaser on his blog!
Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths previews begin on April 2.
Quote From Mark Rosewater Previews for Ikoria: Lair of the Behemoths don’t start until April 2, but I’ve been getting a lot of requests from people cooped up at home that are eager for any content, so I decided to do something I used to do all the time back in my column in The Duelist. I’m going to be giving you a Maro Teaser where I give tiny hints of things to come. Note that I’m only giving you partial information.
The following can be found in Ikoria:
- Magic’s seventh Egg
- A card with the text “four or more times this game”
- A card with the text “total power 10 or less”
- Magic’s largest power/toughness granting aura.
- A card with the text “X is the number of times this creature has mutated”
- Magic’s third and fourth card with “(Zero is even.)” reminder text.
- Three cards with the text “different name(s)”
- Twelve different types of counters [13 if you include Loyalty Counters]
- A card that says “choose a kind of counter at random”
- A card with the text “remove eight foreshadow counters”
- And a cycle that players have been asking us to make for over ten years
In addition, Ikoria has creatures with the following creature types:
- Dinosaur Turtle
- Shark Beast
- Demon Kraken
- Elemental Otter
- Brushwagg
- Hellion Horror
- and a Nightmare Squirrel (Yes, a Squirrel in a Standard-legal set!)
Hopefully, this can tide you all over until the previews begin on April 2nd. Enjoy!
EDIT: Oops, there’s actually thirteen different type of counters. I searched for counter and planeswalkers don’t actually say “counter” on them. So that’s twelve not counting loyalty counters. Sorry.
