Bloomburrow Card Tournament
Well, everybody, with the release of the new set comes new cards. This tournament is for any card that is Bloomburrow-y, whether that is cards with the creature types and/or cards with the mechanics or the color pairs, or just a Bloomburrow-themed card. Just for easy reference, these are the color pairs of the set and their creature types:
WU - Birds
WB - Bats (Seem to like life gain/loss)
WR - Mice (Seem to like valiant mechanic)
WG - Rabbits (Seem to like tokens)
UB - Rats
UR - Otters (Seem to like spellslinging)
UG - Frogs
BR - Lizards
BG - Squirrels (Seem to like graveyard)
RG - Raccoons (Seem to like expend/going berserk)

Old cards that fit are allowed.
I guess the making of this was well-timed. It's a white Rabbit-themed removal card that also riffs off of the Rabbits' mechanic of Offspring.

The idea is that he’s an untrained, clumsy pickpocket. He manages to steal some, but usually gets caught before completely looting you. I incorporated ‘gift a treasure’ as the representation of him not being able to steal it all. Enjoy!

Submission for mechanics.
Maybe, but don't forget there are three tournament sections.
? Why did you post an empty comment?
Is tadpoles hatchery still in the tournament? ( I'll assume yes if you don't respond because it says you did not edit your comment.)
Submission for colour pairs. I tried to recreate the "unblockable Fish" vibe from Streets of New Capenna, but I guess the ability also pairs well with Offspring.
Submission for mechanics.
Submission for colour pairs. Spellslingers can always appreciate the opportunity to jazz up their spells.
Closed for Judging.
First off I'm judging color pairs. This one is hard, there are so many good cards, but here goes nothing.
Color Pairs
1st Place: @StuffnSuch with Tadpole Hatchery.
The unique design of Tadpole Hatchery combined with the feeling of hatching tadpoles lands it in first place for color pairs. @StuffnSuch 10 Favorites + 5 hugs.2nd Place: @Jadefire with Koi Tender.
It looks like frogs are doing well in this section. Koi Tender beats the other color pair cards by Jadefire with its especially interesting and versatile design, as well as the other color pair cards by the other tournament participants. @Jadefire 6 Favorites + 2 hugs. Also check the other tournament judging sections, since you have made top 3 in more than this one, and I don't want to mention you too many times.3rd Place: @jpastor with Pyrotter
Applying the suicidal goblin archetype to an izzet otter that also cares about spellslinging is a very interesting idea, so it is here in 3rd place. @jpastor 3 favorites.Mechanics
There isn't really much for this, so there is only 1st and 2nd place.1st Place: Jadefire with Pike, Posterity's Advocate
Combining offspring with forage is quite interesting, and the card is aptly named. +10 favorites and 5 hugs to Jadefire (This is ridiculous how much you've won.)2nd Place: @LvB with Ser Mouserich
Not particularly impressive, though I like the card. It is the only other card that could fit in mechanics. @LvB 6 favorites + 2 hugs.Everything Else
1st Place: @Mila with Otterball Rules Change
This card's design is unique and fits with the name, hence its place in 1st place. @Mila 10 favorites and 5 hugs.2nd Place: @LHunter with Clumsy Pickpocket
Honestly, this is just a cool card with an interesting design. @LHunter I know you're going to be inactive for a while, but if you ever log on, hopefully you see that you get 6 favorites and 2 hugs.3rd Place: Tie between @Lurisauri with Cosmos Enthusiast and @balloonnation with Expert Divelancer.
This is a tough one between Expert Divelancer and Cosmos Enthusiast. I'd say it's a tie, so I'll divide the favorites out, but since you can't have 1&1/2 favorites, both @Lurisauri and @balloonnation get 2 favorites.I know Forced Succession is very popular, but while I like it, it's just a plain old Swords to Plowshares combined with Pongify. Also, I can't have Jadefire receiving 26 faves and 11 hugs from me, that's just absolutely ridiculous.
