First up, here are some things you can expect:

  • a new type of token (at least done as a cohesive theme)
  • a card that can activate to copy enchantments
  • Adventures on a new permanent type
  • an artifact that has two different artifact subtypes normally associated with artifact tokens
  • a creature type from Alpha gets a draft archetype
  • fairy tale Sagas
  • multiple legendary Foods
  • a new card with a lobotomy effect
  • a creature with two triggers, one for artifacts entering the battlefield and one for enchantments
  • a new mechanic that batches together three items that have been in the game since Alpha but never batched before

Next, here are some rules text that will be showing up on cards:

  • “If a permanent entering the battlefield causes a triggered ability of a permanent you control to trigger, that ability triggers an additional time.”
  • “Look at the top twenty cards of your library.”
  • “it produces three times as much of that mana instead.”
  • “Sacrifice all Reflections you control.”
  • “Creatures you control with +1/+1 counters on them have all activated abilities of all creature cards exiled with CARDNAME.”
  • “have base power and toughness 4/4 and flying.”
  • “exile up to one other non-Fox creature”
  • “Land creatures you control”
  • “Whenever you tap an untapped creature an opponent controls,”
  • “X is 2 plus the number of cards in your graveyard that are instant cards, sorcery cards, and/or have an Adventure.”

    an artifact that has two different artifact subtypes normally associated with artifact tokens

    205.3g Artifacts have their own unique set of subtypes; these subtypes are called artifact types. The artifact types are Attraction (see rule 717), Blood, Clue, Contraption, Equipment (see rule 301.5), Food, Fortification (see rule 301.6), Gold, Incubator, Powerstone, Treasure, and Vehicle (see rule 301.7).

    I keep thinking of ideas that are already represented on other cards.

    “Food Incubator” could be the four and twenty blackbirds, but [[Bake into a Pie]] is already a card. “Food Clue” could be Hansel & Gretel’s breadcrumbs, but [[Trail of Crumbs]] already exists. Cinderella’s carriage could be a Food Vehicle, but [[Enchanted Carriage]] already exists (plus Vehicle isn’t “normally associated with artifact tokens”).

    I think Food Treasure seems most likely, but I don’t know what it might represent.
