Maro’s Secrets of Strixhaven Teaser
Before previews for Secrets of Strixhaven 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:
• An ability word returns which first appeared on a second visit to a popular plane
• Four of the five school get a new mascot (aka creature tokens and sometimes cards)
• A mythic rare cycle that grants your instants and sorceries old keywords
• A new mechanic that redoes an old mechanic without its drawback
• A spell which costs {X}{X}{U}
• A mechanic that has been in Magic for many years finally becomes a card name
• a 6/6 with a mana value of 1
• A spell that grants a specific deciduous mechanic to any cards of two specific card types
• A cycle referencing iconic spells from Alpha
Next, here are some rules text that will be showing up on cards:
• “Whenever [CARDNAME] attacks, you may cast target instant or sorcery card from your graveyard without paying its mana cost.”
• “each Pest, Bat, Insect, Snake, and Spider you control.”
• “add an amount of {R} equal to this creature’s power.”
• “you may exile cards from your graveyard.”
• “Exile an instant or sorcery card from your graveyard:”
• “where X is the number of differently named lands you control.”
• “Round down each time.”
• “When this land enters, choose a land card name.”
• “equal to three minus X.”
Here are some creature type lines from the set:
• Creature – Spirit Camel
• Creature – Turtle Wizard
• Legendary Creature – Merfolk Bard
• Legendary Creature – Bird Skeleton Warlock
Finally, here are some names in the set:
