Have a bite to eat in day five of Magic: The Gathering's Unfinity previews.

The weekend is always the quiet shift for Magic: The Gathering's preview seasons, and Unfinity is no exception. Gone are the heady days of over 20 cards being revealed to pore over, today we're at just eight. That doesn't mean those eight are bad, though – in fact, there's some really interesting stuff going on here.

In day five of Unfinity's previews, we've got a Squirrel token generator for eternal decks, the ability to still triggered abilities, and even a card that gets better the more you're willing to eat. Here's everything revealed on day five of Unfinity's spoilers.

We'[ve only got three Eternal-legal cards today, and none of them are going to be breaking any formats. Squirrel Squatters pumping out Squirrel tokens each turn you roll for an Attraction is great, allowing you to make potentially up to ten tokens every turn. There's also Lineprancers, which gives you two tickets for just two mana and then can be used as way to force your opponent's creatures into dying in combat.

Dee Kay, Finder of the Lost is going to be a great commander for any deck that wants to roll lots of six-sided dice, which, while limited thanks to black-border Magic only rarely caring about d6s, is bound to become more popular thanks to all the support Unfinity gives the archetype.

For the Acorn cards today, we have the next two members of Myra's Marvels, with Fluros of Myra's Marvels being a powerful artifact commander that wants you to play lots of spells with the same mana value. There's also Nocturno of Myra's Marvels, which allows you to turn almost any keyword into a viable theme for a deck, provided it's more than five letters long.

Pie-Eating Contest is absolutely wild, requiring you to either sacrifice Food tokens (something this set so far doesn't make in great amounts) or take a bite of actual food. Having people eat over the table at local game stores is dangerous, but there's nothing in the rules about just chewing gum while playing to meet the requirement.

Finally, Trigger Happy is another Acorn card that feels more like a test for things to come. At the moment, the rules only really support copying a triggered ability for yourself, whereas this just straight-up yoinks it from your opponent and gives it to you. It wouldn't be surprising to see this kind of spell maybe make the leap to black-border in some form later down the line.
