This [[keyword ability]] gives special access to a card from the library when [[linked abilities|linked]] with a second ability. It was earlier used on a [[hideaway land|horizontal cycle of rare lands]] in ''[[Lorwyn]]'', and on one card in ''[[Modern Horizons]]''. Hideaway used to inherently mean four cards, but now it can be any number (especially five!), and that number will appear after the word "hideaway." Also, hideaway used to inherently mean the permanent with hideaway entered the battlefield tapped, but this is no longer true. Previous cards with hideaway now have "[This permanent] enters the battlefield tapped" as a separate ability. This set also marks the return of the first monocolored blue creature with [[haste]] since {{Card|Bonded Fetch}} in ''[[Future Sight]]'', with {{Card|Errant, Street Artist}}. Similar to the previous card, the mono-blue creature with haste has the ability to use its activated abilities right away upon entering the battlefield rather than for attacking. ===Card types=== *With this set, '''[[Raccoon]]''' is first seen as a [[creature type]] on non-[[Acorn]] cards. ===Secondary limited archetypes=== In addition to the shards, ''Streets of New Capenna'' features the following [[draft archetype]]s for [[allied color]]s:<ref name="Hitting 2"/> *{{W}}{{U}}: [[Creature]]s with [[Counter (marker)|counters]] on them. *{{U}}{{B}}: Five different [[mana value]]s on cards in your [[graveyard]]. *{{B}}{{R}}: [[Sacrifice]] *{{R}}{{G}}: [[Treasure]] *{{G}}{{W}}: [[Citizen]]s matter
