  Lorwyn,
the first set of the “Peanut” block, returns to a more traditional fantasy
setting. Mechanically speaking, the set focuses on Tribal (much like
Onslaught did but in a different way). Being Human free, the set revolves
around several major creature types including: Goblins, Elves, Merfolk,
Kithkin, Elementals, Faeries, Giants, Treefolk and Shapeshifters. Each
creature type is split up amongst two colors with the exception of
Treefolk in three, Shapeshifters in all colors and Elementals in all
colors.
One of the most notable introductions
in the set is that of the new card type: Planeswalkers. Another new card
type, Tribal, is actually not new as it was first introduced in Planar
Chaos with one card.
Lorwyn is also the start of a new set
structure system where instead of three sets per block, there are only two
sets per block. |
