[UNF] MaRo's Mega-Teaser
Posted: Mon Sep 19, 2022 3:36 pm
All-new, all-different.
Before previews for Unfinity 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. Because Unfinity is filled with more strangeness than the average set, I'm doing a mega-teaser where I tease even more than normal.
First up, here are some things you can expect:
• a card that can become over five hundred different cards for the turn
• a card that enchants your graveyard
• a card which requires you to use pantomime
• an enchantment subtype appears on an artifact for the first time
• a new subgame card in a color that's never had one
• a card that can make one of five different artifact tokens that each don't do anything
• an outside assistance card where the person assisting doesn't even know
• a common command
• over ten new named abilities including best in show, gear up, and parade!
• a card that can make multiple Storm Crow tokens
• a cycle of "fill in the blank" cards
• multiple cards that let you win a prize
• a creature ability gets converted to a land ability
• a planeswalker that doesn't do what you say
• a card that makes flying Cat tokens
• a cycle of cards that care about certain objects you can see from your seat
• another spell that lets you open a booster pack
• a card that gives you a resource to pay costs that no card has ever granted before
• a card that asks an outside person to rate something on a scale from 1 to 5
• between cards and stickers, over twenty-five nonevergreen/nondeciduous mechanics are returning
Next, here are some rules text that will be showing up on cards:
• "An opponent tells you a statement about themselves and secretly notes whether it's true or false."
• "Each player in an Un-game who can hear you may bid life."
• "where X is the greatest number of stored results on it of the same value."
• "except by creatures with flavor text"
• "for each item in its art that's not touching CARDNAME, another item, or the card frame."
• "As long as CARDNAME remains tapped, that effect doesn't end."
• "As CARDNAME enters the battlefield, choose a word with five or more letters."
• "target non-Brushwagg creature"
• "Ask a person outside the game to choose which of them is most like a rock band."
• "using the first letters of the names of permanents you control,"
• "As long as three or more hands are touching CARDNAME,"
• "first strike and a sword, vigilance and a shield, menace and mean eyes"
• "with the same artist and different names"
• "with #GuessThatMagicCard and no other text."
• "any number of printed Clown Robot tokens that aren't touching each other, that you hid on the battlefield"
• "choose A through M or N through Z."
• "If the cracks in CARDNAME's art are completely covered,"
• "An opponent chooses 'the fastest', 'the scariest' or 'the weakest.'"
• "As CARDNAME enters the battlefield, choose a named Magic character."
• "When you draw yourself, you win the game."
Here is some reminder text that appears in the set:
• "Anything with two or more capitalized words in its name that begin with the same letter is alliterative."
• "A top is an outerwear garment worn on the upper body."
• "the card, not your head"
• "They can't be blocked except by creatures with horsemanship."
• "Align the tops of both cards to check."
• "Don't explain anything else. You choose targets."
• "This creature has first strike as long as it's blocking or being blocked by a creature that comes after it alphabetically."
• "The vowels are A, E, I, O, U, and Y."
• "This spell costs 1 less to cast for each Clown you control."
• "It has their total power, total toughness, combined mana costs, all text boxes, names, art, and so on."
• "Something is hot if it has hot things in its art, like fire or explosions."
• "CARDNAME divides the battlefield into alpha, beta, and gamma sectors."
• "Each time you gobble, take a bit of food or sacrifice a Food token."
• "You can have two commanders if both have partner."
• "It becomes 2/2, then 1/1, ½ / ½ , and so on."
• "about 0.3 meters"
• "Creatures in a log together can't be blocked unless they're all blocked."
• "Don't touch other people's phones without permission and be careful if you do."
• "Places everyone! The first creature in line gets +0/+0."
• "They continue to exist after they leave the battlefield."
