You can see this same pattern on other cards: Pollen-Shield Hare, Elusive Otter, and Questing Druid all have creature sides that want to be played early and instant/sorcery modes that work best with setup.
Consider Bonecrusher Giant vs Heartflame Duelist: turn 2 Stomp, turn 3 Bonecrusher Giant is a natural curve, but Heartflame Duelist forces you to play off curve with its body to get value. A key change seems to be in how adventures are designed: many adventures in this set have an awkward flow to them compared to Throne of Eldraine. This go-around, adventures still seem strong but appear a bit tuned down. The mechanic’s first outing spawned Constructed all-stars like Bonecrusher Giant, Brazen Borrower, and was great in Limited. Adventures are essentially creatures stapled to instants/sorceries, but with a twist: if you cast the instant/sorcery mode, you can exile the creature and play it from exile! It’s hard to get card advantage this free, so it should come as no surprise that adventures were amazing in Throne of Eldraine. Black ( Wicked, Cursed via Spiteful Hexmage)Īdventure is a returning mechanic that we haven’t seen in Standard since Throne of Eldraine, the last Eldraine set.White ( Royal, Young Hero, Sorcerer, Cursed via Cursed Courtier).If you’re curious, here’s which roles each color creates: Roles appear in all colors, though slightly more in white.

You can free your creature from your own Cursed role by giving them a new one (i.e., Cursed Courtier).You can’t free your creature from an opponent’s Cursed role with a role of your own.You can’t stack roles (even differently named ones) on the same creature to make them better in combat.If a creature ever has more than one role on it, it keeps the latest one and the others go to the graveyard (and then cease to exist because they’re tokens).
Cursed is the notable exception, and it’s the only role you’ll want to put on your opponent’s creatures.Ĭreatures can only have one role controlled by the same player attached to it. Most roles are simple auras that give +1/+1 and another bonus like trample or ward. Young Hero - Enchanted creature has, “Whenever this creature attacks, if its toughness is 3 or less, put a +1/+1 counter on it.”.Wicked - Enchanted creature gets +1/+1 and, “When this Aura is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, each opponent loses 1 life.”.Sorcerer - Enchanted creature gets +1/+1 and has, “Whenever this creature attacks, scry 1.”.Royal - Enchanted creature gets +1/+1 and has ward.Monster - Enchanted creature gets +1/+1 and has trample.Cursed - Enchanted creature has base power and toughness 1/1.Roles are a new kind of token with six different variations, all of which are auras that enchant creatures.
