Expansion symbol

Four Bloomburrow Commander Decks were released together with Bloomburrow on August 2, 2024.

Description

The four Bloomburrow Commander decks each contain 10 new cards with the BLC set code. Main Commanders appear as Borderless cards (#0001-0004), while the alternate commanders (#0005-0008) and the rest of the new cards (#0009-0040) appear as normal cards. These cards are permitted in the Commander, Legacy, and Vintage formats. The other cards in these decks (with printed set code BLC and collector numbers #0105-0355) that have been previously printed are legal for play in any format where a card with the same name is permitted.

In Collector Boosters, Main Commanders can appear as anime raised foil versions (#0101-0104), and the rest of the new cards as extended art versions (#0041-0072).

There are several additional cards with the BLC code, that aren't to be found in the Commander decks. These are the Imagine: Courageous Critters (collector numbers #0073-0100; raised foil #0093-0096), and the Bloomburrow Buy-a-Box card Flubs, the Fool (#0356).
