training uh training is a mechanic that is very combat focused so it says training whenever this creature attacks with another creature with greater power put a plus one plus one counter on this creature so the idea being if you have a one one going into battle with the two two the one one with training is gonna level up because the two two is teaching them how to battle i guess and it gets a plus one close encounter yeah a good example of this is a card called apprentice sharpshooter from the set it's a NUMBER_TOKEN NUMBER_TOKEN for two and a green with reach and training and this is similar to mentor yeah a little bit yeah except for that it the creature that has the training is getting bigger rather than making other creatures bigger so yeah it's the train the one gang train not the trainer trainee not the trainer there you go yeah yeah uh and then the last sort of new mechanic in the set is not technically a new mechanic but it's a new token type uh they're blood tokens so this is the vampire set not surprising that they make blood tokens um blood tokens read um it's an artifact with one tap the blood token discard a card and then sacrifice the blood token and you dry card so a lot of costs right you gotta pay a mana you gotta discard a card and sack the artifact to draw a card um we'll talk a little bit more about blood tokens later it's reds uh rummaging so they discard then draw instead of looting which is draw then discard the rummaging is a little bit worse uh and it has a one-man cost on top it's just similar to like clue tokens and stuff in the past which are these are ways to get card advantage maybe you got to come through yeah then there were a bunch of returning mechanics that was all the new mechanics from the set and uh not super complicated which is good because you know as we're going to see with returning mechanics there were some complicated ones in the last set uh so returning mechanics the daybound nightbound mechanic is back um the transform mechanic in general is back a lot of vampires transform vampires too yeah day night uh the day night thing is a little bit complicated we're not gonna go all over all the rules here if you go to our episode uh NUMBER_TOKEN um we we go into how demon nightbound works in depth so you can check that out if you're still confused which honestly i still am sometimes yeah and it's something that you won't see it too much but you should know how it works because when it comes up in the game it will be there for the rest of the game there's certainly times when you're like wait how does this work i'm not sure let's look it up yeah the next returning mechanic is disturbed this is basically an alternate cost on the bottom of the cards typically that allow you to cast the card from your graveyard transformed so it dies and then it becomes disturbed out of the graveyard and flips on this backside typically after that creature dies then it gets exiled uh curses our back so we saw lindy from the the last set in the set boosters was a cursed deck and they've brought some curses back in this set nothing we're going to talk about today but that is back and then finally yeah this
