I'm pulling out the parking lot. We all know what that means. It's time for the drive to work.

At conference at my son's school today. Okay, so today we're going to start talking about Morning Tide.

I did a series not so long ago about Lorwyn, and we're going to continue talking about the block.

So first, let's talk a little bit about Morning Tide.

So Morning Tide came out in February 1st of 2008.

It was the second set in the Lorwyn block.

So butter was its code name.

So Lordwin was peanut.

So it was peanut, butter, and jelly originally.

And then when we decided to make it two

mini blocks, we turned into jelly donut. So it's peanut butter and jelly donut. But for the audience,

it sounded like peanut butter and jelly. It sounded like a three-set block because we, we'd be careful.

Our co-names don't give away what we're doing. Anyway, the set had 150 cards, 60 commons, 40 uncommonds, and 50 rairs.

This is prior to Mythic Rare existing.

There was no Mythic Rairs at this point.

The team, the design team was led by Paul Sotisanti, included Aaron Forsyth, Eric Lauer,

Ken Nagel, and myself.

And then the development was led by Mike Turian and Eric Lauer, Henry Stern, and Noah Weil were on that team.

So basically, I'm going to...

The set had a bunch of mechanics.

I'm going to walk through the mechanics as I'm talking about the cards.

But it continues the mechanics from Lorwyn, and then it added in some new mechanics.
