It was already strong in Modern but the 2024 unbanning of Faithless Looting has made it even better as you can easily flip Tamiyo for a single mana, and its fantastic in any Magic format with Brainstorm since you can transform Tamiyo at instant speed
I definitely think that Im only scratching the surface when it comes to Bloomburrow and Im looking forward to playing these cards and seeing what other people do with them

Likewise, the serialized poster cards and Realms and Relics cards can only be found in the Special Edition
