    I smell a cycle coming on. This one is also brutally strong. Fights over the coveted green 3 slot, provides continual GY hate, beats in and defends, and likely makes your creatures cost 1 less to cast, followed by your removal spells etc. For those that like the opponents-library-thieving...

    Well this can get out of hand pretty quickly. Has that uniquely hard to remove feature of pack rat and threatens to close out the game very, very quickly.

    Exiling in this case would indicate sending a troublesome cemetary guest to the Blessed Sleep, and then calling for reinforcements whenever they detect another of that sort of trouble.

    The Sprite for me. Also decent with Ninjitsu due to up front flying while providing that sweet, sweet card smoothing and graveyard filling.

    Drifter? I Hardly Know Er: Jeskai tempo deck with some staying power thanks to Reveillark and Broodmoth. Tree Hugger Central: Naya landfall midrange-aggressive deck that plays a bit with tokens.

    Yes. My current analysis is underestimating the complexity increase.

    "Mean" and "average" are synonyms, and as I noted standard deviation isn't particularly useful for this dataset because the data itself doesn't follow a normal distribution; therefor I used a different statistical approach to means bounding instead (the Chebyshev Bound in this specific case...

    Wowzers. Being able to be landfall: create a 1/1, basically magecraft: create a 1/1, or whenever you cast [pick a permanent type]: create a 1/1 is insanely flexible depending on how fast graveyard fill, and what they fill with. It's from any graveyard, so it's also incidental GY hate. Has...

    TL;DR of the spoiler below: I looked at the entire list of magic cards and did a buncha tinkering, and found out that yes, on average, card textboxes have been getting longer as time goes on. There's been an 11% increase in "wordy" cards ("wordy" being somewhat arbitrarily determined), and...

    The enchantment theme is pretty out of left field for me personally. Has Innistrad ever had an enchantment subtheme in the past? Besides Delirium, which... doesn't really count IMO.

    Relatively efficient sac outlets in blue are a rarity, and Geralf here doesn't diminish your board when he sacs (most sac outlets convert creatures into not-creatures). Pretty nice.

    If it helps you to think about it like this, it kind of says "create X clues, where X is 1 + the greatest number of creatures a player controls". Of course you can only "sac one clue a turn" (except at the end), but the total mana investment is effectively not applicable in the same way one...
