Rare MTG Valley Questcaller is a Bloomburrow Limited bomb

Valley Questcaller, a two-drop Mono-White Rare that buffs Rabbits, Bats, Birds, and/or Mice within the Bloomburrow Standard-legal set, will support up to four Magic: The Gathering creature types as a Noble.

Formerly known as a Lord in MTG, a Noble supports a specific creature type. Nobles can support multiple creature types, as seen through Bloomburrow Rare Valley Questcaller. The two-drop is significant, especially within the Limited Draft and Sealed format, where Rabbits, Birds, Bats, and Mice are represented through dual-color archetypes. Each of the four creature types has a White pip in the Draft archetype, allowing you to splash Valley Questcaller in various Bloomburrow Limited builds.

The term bomb in MTG is often used loosely, but that’s not true with Valley Questcaller. Here’s everything the two-drop can do:

• When a Bat, Rabbit, Bird, or Mice creature type enters the battlefield, you get to Scry One. It’s not a restricted Scry, meaning you may Scry multiple times during a turn.
• All Rabbits, Bats, Birds, and Mice get +1/+1. The buff is automatically applied to the creature’s base stat line and not through counters.

Draft archetypes with the color White are Bird (WU), Mouse (RW), Rabbit (GW), and Bat (BW). Each archetype has its mechanical theme, with Valley Questcaller enhancing the power of the archetype.

The Mouse archetype, for example, is an aggressive Red and White MTG color combo that wants to overpower opponents quickly. A card like Flowerfoot Swordmaster, which uses the new Offspring mechanic, is a solid middle Draft pick elevated through the buffs granted by Valley Questcaller. And a Bloomburrow card like Warren Warleader, which also uses the new Offspring mechanic to make an abundance of Rabbit tokens, can easily slot into an RW Mouse Draft deck with the addition of Valley Questcaller.

Birds are another strong Draft archetype within Bloomburrow. The Plumecreed Mentor signpost for the WU archetype already pumps up creatures without Flying through +1/+1 counters. Valley Questcaller buffs their stats even more, providing an early-game threat that can end matches quickly. And much like Birds, Bats with increased stats and Flying are the last thing your opponent wants to face in Limited.

You can test out Valley Questcaller and all the MTG Bloomburrow cards at Prerelease events starting on Friday, July 26.
