Disney Lorcana Reveals More Cards, Teases Squirrel With Terrifying Ability

Disney Lorcana might be introducing a new villain and his name is Bucky the Squirrel. Earlier this week, Ravensburger updated imagery for the Disney Lorcana Organized Play Kit, along with prizes and promo cards from the upcoming set “Rise of the Floodborn,” which comes out November. Players can win four promo cards by participating in store Organized Play events, all of hadn’t been revealed previously. The new cards include Cinderella – Knight in Training, Bucky – Squirrel Speak Tutor, Minnie Mouse – Wide Eyed Diver, and Robin Hood – Capable Fighter. 

While only one of the cards, Cinderella – Knight in Training, was fully revealed (she’s a 2-Cost Steel character with 2 Strength, 2 Willpower and 2 Lore, along with an ability that allows players to draw a card and then discard a card when she’s put into play), players are looking at Bucky, a 2 cost Emerald card, with particular dread. Bucky’s ability is partially obscured, but we know that Bucky has Ward, meaning that it can’t be targeted outside of challenges and that it seems to have an ability that forces other players to discard a card whenever the player who controls Bucky plays a Floodborn character. 

Assuming Bucky’s ability is accurate, Bucky could be an absolute terror in Disney Lorcana. The game currently has few ways to consistently draw cards, and a card that forces opponents to discard on a consistent basis could really cripple a lot of decks before they get started. Plus, the new set is called Rise of the Floodborn, so we’re assuming there will be a lot of cards with the mysterious classification.

Keep in mind that we’re still in the middle of spoiler season for Disney Lorcana’s second set so there might be some cards specifically designed to counter Bucky and his terrifying squeaky squirrel power. But right now, Bucky – Squirrel Speak Tutor looks like it might be the beginning of a new reign of terror for Emerald Decks, especially if there’s ways to integrate Bucky into a deck with plenty of Floodborn characters. 

Where to Buy Disney Lorcana: Rise of the Floodborn
