@@lancelee338 One of the best ever! I’ve made two albums of fan music, won a 125 person tournament for the game, made fan factions… that game was my life for a while!
everything i hear sounds cooler and cooler. I loved Secret of Nimh and Redwall as a kid, and Mouse Guard more recently, so theres a certain amount of joyful nostalgia about this the other thing im kind of a bit excited to see is havint a bit of a more kid focused set, I have step kids about the right age to start playing but getting 7 year olds into a murder mystery or gory gothic horror just doesnt exactly work. And Magic needs new players! Really hoping this is a plane that is well received mechanically from established players and can be one that, like Ravnica, can be revisited every few years
I am really interested in the "tribal-not-tribal" idea. From the precons, the Squirrel's look to be token themed and Golgari colors, so I get the idea and I can't wait to see the whole set
I'm excited for this set. I've been getting back into Magic, and I'm already trying to set up a draft of this set with my friends. I never drafted much before, so I'm looking forward to trying it out!
Been saving up draft tokens on Arena for this set. MKM was a decent draft, didn't care for OTJ draft though. Also excited for the 70's/80's Horror set after Bloomburrow. Just got back into mtg after a 4 year break. A lot has changed.
I think he said they would stay a mouse (on Blogatog). Which makes sense - what's the point of a Bloomsburrow mouse turning into someone who doesn't even look like themselves? If they want to do an OTJ style random character cameo, they should still look like themselves right? :)
this feels like Wizards totally cashing in on Lorcana and Pokemon hype and I gotta say Im all for it, havent been this psyched for the flavor of a set since Kamigawa ND, just looks fun
Hey Mark, just so I can budget accordingly.... Are you guys already making plans for a $1500 35th Anniversary proxy kit? Or is that still a few months down the line?
Bloomburrow may be the only set where I'm more interested in the potential merchandise than the cards themselves. Where are the Gatewatch animal plushies!?
Looking forward to the set but I hope it's not just an excuse to see animal versions of every single Magic character in the way Thunder Junction felt like an excuse to just see cowboy versions of every single character. I know it's a bit much to expect Magic to tell a gripping story since they abandoned the block format and have whiffed the last several stories they've tried telling. Still. I'm trying to be optimistic about it. I hope the color pairs don't lock players in like Ravinca did--I always hated drafting Ravnica.
I’m excited for the story implications that are so good they have to do something with that everyone is an animal. Like at the end a bear/wolf creature goes through an omen path and we discover it is garruk who lost his memories or something like that!
Maro totally trying to swerve on saying "redwall" you said "redwall" and he said "there's a lot of genre with mice as the protagonists..." come on Maro ya little weasle!
Furries, we call that fandom furries*. They smell the money so I hope to heck that the set is actually good, and so far we seen most of the cards are pretty decent.
I love how everyone is pretending like this guy isn't ruining the game. It's almost as bad as the sc-ambassadors they tried to shove down our throats...I wonder what ever happened to them. Their set design is a bunch of hot garbage. The fact they had to release a ban announcement with the words "All cards that bring a sticker or an Attraction into the game are banned" speaks wonders to their ability to stay relevant. Every decision has been made solely to fill their pockets and not ensure the game remains playable.
I know that new generations are starting to consume the MTG but i think that they are distortioning the Lore alot... Imo the best lore and artwork was in the Urza storyline and the weatherlight...
I've been playing MTG since Judgment came out. I'm excited about Bloomburrow because it feels like a "MTG" set and not a meme set or more of the crossover stuff that we have been getting. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the crossovers because they bring in new players. I loved the DnD stuff. Also, can't wait to return to Lorwyn!
So dumb, i enjoyed magic the gathering, but seeinf this stuff and the cash grab cross over. Dungeons and Dragons was tolerable, but Fallout? Just ruin the game quickly plz
How about talking about how so much product is diluting the game, what about how printing for commander has fucked the format, how about that Bottomwater? Try talking about how you have to suck the corporate teat all day and say "Thank you sir may have another" as this game alone is proving up a dying company.... oh MTG you suck so bad, but I love you so much...
As a 40 year old male and magic player of the 90s. This set sounds cringe. I like animals, but if you wanted an animal set just make an animal set, dont turn main characters into animals or cowboys. Same goes if you wanted a investigative set, dont set it on Ravnica. Even if Capenna didn't go over well with the masses, make a new set. For the record, I liked Capenna.
@@yaboy821 No. They're taking main characters and making them animals. Theyve made everything "Avengers" the last couple years and overprinted cards. Big crossover sets just to keep making the same characters. I'm not saying that there are no new characters on Bloomburrow, but they could have made a plane and not included Jace, Ral, and have a sneaky suspicion its another mash up set because everyone gets transformed into an animal.
@@TheFranchise83 that's stupid tough, guess kaldheim isn't the viking set, because there where planeswalkers there, kamigawa had nothing to do with cyberpunk Japan cus the planeswalkers where there also, Tarkir wasnt the dragon plane etc... by that logic every set is a crossover set
I love that they'll be including one-off animals from species other than the main 10! I'm excited to see the variety of animals we get as characters.
So hyped for this set!
Me too!
same lol, rereading redwall atm
As a big fan of Redwall and the boardgame Root, I’m pretty hyped for this set!
I was thinking of Root too. My roommate just showed me that game and it’s very interesting
@@lancelee338 One of the best ever! I’ve made two albums of fan music, won a 125 person tournament for the game, made fan factions… that game was my life for a while!
haha, exactly, i am reading Redwall too atm and i love Root!!
You should also check out Everdell
@@CalebvanderLeek Hold up... Root fan-music?? Please indulge me!
I think Bloomburrow could be something as nice as Ravnica if they pull it right, animals could be as much important as guilds
That’s what I was about to say
Let’s bring it over as a D&D setting too!
i mean, Mouseguard exists
Humblewoord
You could easily whip up a homebrew of this type of setting! No need to wait!
@@R3DM4G3Honestly, I couldn't stop thinking about the setting once I heard the Bloomburrow announcement.

Shout-out Brian Jacques
Brian sadly passed away over a decade ago.
@@lancelot717 I was in my middle school computer room when I learned he'd died about a year prior. Devastating.
Cool he took the time to interview with such a small channel
I'm excited for this set. I've been getting back into Magic, and I'm already trying to set up a draft of this set with my friends. I never drafted much before, so I'm looking forward to trying it out!
This will literally be the best selling set we’ve seen in years. It’s basically a redwall magic set
No way it will do better than LoTR, Fallout, KND, or even Dr Who
Premier set, maybe. As excited as I am for it, I don't think for a second that it'll top LotR.
Ask him how excited he is to bring the Redwall series to life
Then follow it up with asking about the Jacetice League.

Would the opposite be true as well? If a Bloomsburrow mouse goes to Ravnica, would they have a human form or stay a mouse?
I think he said they would stay a mouse (on Blogatog). Which makes sense - what's the point of a Bloomsburrow mouse turning into someone who doesn't even look like themselves? If they want to do an OTJ style random character cameo, they should still look like themselves right? :)
@@WhammeWhamme Trueee, makes sense
If a bloomsburrow mouse goes to ravnica, they get a fedora
On other planes it would stay a mouse but on Ravnica it becomes a detective.
They would becone Humansized Mouse-Woman/Man in a cute Anime Style. So they can sell more cards.
So excited for this set :D
Ooh, at 2:29, is that art a new spoiler? I don't think I've seen it before! I love the frame on Mabel
Such a cool interview. Thanks for the content!
Our pleasure!
this feels like Wizards totally cashing in on Lorcana and Pokemon hype and I gotta say Im all for it, havent been this psyched for the flavor of a set since Kamigawa ND, just looks fun
Finally a good set again. No Universes beyond, no solved mystery, no cowboys, just good old fantasy.
I last played MTG 15 years ago. I am suddenly pulled right back in with this set! Huge RedWall vibes
If there are no redwall alts we riot
Proxy makers printers go brrr
I’m back for this set. Looks great
Hey Mark, just so I can budget accordingly.... Are you guys already making plans for a $1500 35th Anniversary proxy kit? Or is that still a few months down the line?
I'm so excited about this set I've been annoying my non-magic playing friends about it. I have to keep calling it a "Redwall World"
I can't wait to make a bunch of Redwall themed commander decks! I was just looking at the old books
Bloomburrow may be the only set where I'm more interested in the potential merchandise than the cards themselves. Where are the Gatewatch animal plushies!?
This is the set that will get my wife into magic :).
Looking forward to the set but I hope it's not just an excuse to see animal versions of every single Magic character in the way Thunder Junction felt like an excuse to just see cowboy versions of every single character.

So hyped for this!!!
Let’s hope this set is as good as it seems
Great questions! I was curious what was going on with the Fox Jace lol
They have a Dragon Skink Why Im I only now learning about this.
He always says something we're not supposed to know
I hope that there's some low cost big green creatures😊
Nice video
Thanks!
@@MagicUntapped indeed
I must confess to being jealous of your seemingly endless optimism.
Hyped for this set, but he did not want to focus on Redwall as a inspiration
I’m excited for the story implications that are so good they have to do something with that everyone is an animal. Like at the end a bear/wolf creature goes through an omen path and we discover it is garruk who lost his memories or something like that!
I'm excited for soem cards for sure.
Even if i hate Hasbro xD.
But given the look on some of the official stuff... there's AI Art in there for sure.
The animal kingdom doesn't have cute mechanics. It's a pretty brutal place. This will be interesting...
So can we get lorewyn and shadowmoor again? lol
How could a mechanic be… cute?
I'm betting tis "offspring" which seems to be a thing based on one of the commander decks. Mechanic that makes baby animals.
@@fidly4 haha well…. It could be! Good thinking.
Maro totally trying to swerve on saying "redwall" you said "redwall" and he said "there's a lot of genre with mice as the protagonists..." come on Maro ya little weasle!
I mean, Secret of Nimh and Mouse Guard are also properties but yeah, I get him completely dodging the question for legal reasons
Here’s a suggestion for MtG’s universes beyond if you want to do furries: Redwall…..
Pity, I wanted to see Gitrog as a human.
Am i the only one that finds it a little annoying even the animal only set cant escape the gatewatch being forced in
i like turtles
THE FURRY SETTTT
haha
YEAAAAAAA
How dare you call this the 'Furry' set... Diegrace! Animal set 👌
Furries, we call that fandom furries*. They smell the money so I hope to heck that the set is actually good, and so far we seen most of the cards are pretty decent.
I'm sure the "cute" mechanic is going to revolve around motherly instinc and caring for smaller, weaker creatures of the same tribe.
So basically this is just a hype video , they start this crap soooooo soonnnnn lmaooo

Does MaRo imply here that Jace isnt a human...?
8 minutes of saying Redwall wothout saying Redwall.
He is trying so hard to deflect this dude's direct question to avoid any legal problems. lol
We arent trying to tell one kind of story... Yeah we know your writing team has been a massive disaspointment in the past 5 or so years.
Think I’m the only one who doesn’t care for this set
I know that new generations are starting to consume the MTG but i think that they are distortioning the Lore alot... Imo the best lore and artwork was in the Urza storyline and the weatherlight...

embrace the cringe and be free
I dont think anyone can be around him long.
