The Imagine: Courageous Critters showcase line is undoubtedly one of the highlights of Bloomburrow. These cards showcase the outcome of famous Creatures and Planeswalkers from MTG visiting Bloomburrow and experiencing a similar animal transformation to Ral Zarek in the official story of the set.
A recent leak has revealed a new Secret Lair release that will include an expanded range of Imagine: Courageous Critters cards. This exclusive set will feature popular Magic characters such as Tezzeret and Sorin Markov, making it a must-have for fans of Bloomburrow’s style. Be sure to grab this release as soon as it is made available.
While not all of the cards in the Bloomburrow Secret Lair release have been officially confirmed, the MTGSecretLair Twitter account has confirmed the Sorin Markov variant, indicating that the other cards are also likely to be legitimate. We will continue to provide updates as more information about this Magic: The Gathering Secret Lair is revealed.
All Showcase: Bloomburrow Secret Lair Leaked Cards
Sorin Markov
The infamous vampire of Magic, Sorin, has returned in his classic form – a bat wielding a blade. Witnessing his iconic white hair transform into this new appearance is truly a spectacle, solidifying this card as one of the most creative and enjoyable in the Imagine: Courageous Critters collection.
Sorin Markov is a Planeswalker with a black-mana focus, requiring a casting cost of 3BBB. While this may seem like a significant cost for decks without a heavy black presence, the powerful and game-altering abilities of this card make it a valuable investment.
Sorin Markov is a formidable Planeswalker, capable of reducing an opponent’s life total to ten and seizing control of their next turn. Even in his adorable bat form, he is a force to be reckoned with.
Hualti, Radiant Champion
This Planeswalker from Ixalan joins the collection of birds in Bloomburrow and has the ability to greatly enhance all other Creatures on your board.
Huatli stands out as a Planeswalker for possessing a unique +1 ability that focuses solely on acquiring loyalty counters. Despite this, Huatli benefits greatly from this ability as it enables you to accumulate a large number of counters and then use them to unleash a substantial +X power increase with her second ability.
In conclusion, Huatli has the ability to bestow an emblem that cannot be removed, providing a dependable and potent card draw effect whenever a Creature is played.
Kiora, Behemoth Beckoner
Kiro, a modest and uncomplicated Simic Planeswalker, enhances powerful Creature decks. In this transformation, the elegant merfolk becomes an endearing axolotl.
Kiora, a Simic staple for advancing the big-mana strategy, can be cast for 2 generic mana and either green or blue. Beyond its role in this game plan, the card is also valuable in decks that utilize untapping abilities, such as Alaundo the Seer.
Tezzeret, Master of the Bridge
Master of the Bridge is one of MTG’s most prominent variations of Tezzeret, serving as a remarkable source of value and a game-winning finisher for Artifact decks that utilize both blue and black mana.
This planeswalker’s affinity for Artifacts allows for effortless casting of even the most costly cards. In addition, its exceptional burn-and-lifegain ability as the card’s +1 adds to its already impressive recursion and free-casting abilities, making it the cherry on top.
Artifact enthusiasts will surely rejoice at the chance to obtain this reprint of Tezzeret, who has always embodied a cunning and self-serving Artificer – fittingly portrayed here as a colossal rat.
Vraska, Golgari Queen
The beloved Gorgon Golgari boss makes a triumphant return in a perfectly fitting form as a majestic, throne-dwelling serpent.
Vraska’s first two abilities offer card draw and the ability to repeatedly destroy cards, but the most coveted feature is her final ability. Despite its high cost of -9, Vraska has the power to make any opponent who receives combat damage from you lose the game immediately.
Despite following a regrettable pattern of separating a set’s Showcase treatments into a restricted release, which ultimately requires collectors to spend more money to obtain the full set, the silver lining is that these cards are still innovative and valuable reprints.
