Lorwyn Block

The Lorwyn block, consisting of Lorwyn (released October 12, 2007) and Morningtide (February 1, 2008), explores a vibrant, storybook-inspired plane filled with elves, faeries, kithkin, giants, and merfolk. Unlike most blocks, Lorwyn and Shadowmoor were part of a unique four-set cycle, but Lorwyn itself emphasized tribal synergy and class-based mechanics. It introduced Changeling, Evoke, Champion, and Hideaway, with Morningtide adding Prowl, Kinship, and support for class-based tribal themes like Rogues, Shamans, and Warriors. Notable cards include Gaddock Teeg, Thoughtseize, Doran, the Siege Tower, Reveillark, and Bitterblossom. With a strong tribal focus, innovative mechanics, and richly developed races and classes, the Lorwyn block delivered one of Magic’s most flavorful and mechanically cohesive environments.
