If there is a) not a significant disparity in the quality of the cards you can get, and b) a low frequency of possible hits, then you should tutor instead of burrow for the card. You don't invite your opponent into some weird information tracking mini-game, and it will often take less time in...

Nowadays I think it would be an X/3, where X is the number of card types in your opponents' graveyards plus one.

Alright then, I'll mention Phyrexian Dragon Engine and Triarch Praetorian if nobody else is going to. Scrapheap Scrounger is also a good hedge against removal spells, plus it can be used to activate Engineer multiple times. There's otherwise a bunch of artifacts with unearth in Brother's War...

I'm pretty confident in calling Rockets meaningfully worse than Star for most environments.

That's a... rather difficult ask. Bedlam Reveler and Capricious Hellraiser can be played in prowess-leaning shells and are decent reanimation targets, but they're a big step down from Griselbrand. Storm is a bit more malleable since it can at least ritual into something like an Emrakul, the...

I don't know if it's actually worth adding to your deck, but Noxious Revival.

I can assure you I have considered every creature with a mana value of at least 6 or higher. Fleshgorger and other Ward threats are pretty awkward, since I have double Animate Dead. And the reason I do like Animate Dead is that it gives a broader range of answer if you power out a threat early...

Don't remember this card getting revealed. I'm still looking for the perfect cheat target (artifact creature that doesn't end the game if it untaps while still offering meaningful board impact, and still feels somewhat worth the setup if immediately answered), and this doesn't hit all of those...

Will try to include Reprieve Fall of Gil-Galad Lotho, Corrupt Sheriff Reprieve is in until white gets a more complicated counterspell-suite to play around with. Fall of Gil-Galad is the only Saga out of the set I care about, very mini-game esque and gives more value to protection spells. Lotho...

Elvish Mariner is pretty cool. Unfortunately, I don't think I can support it, even if I errataed it to trigger off surveil as well.

Do you think that maybe you're setting the bar a bit low if any piece of equipment that grants evasion is considered to sufficiently capture the one ring? One of, if not the, major defining trait of it is that everyone wants it. It's an object that people fight over, obsess over. We have several...

Lotho looks like a card I'd be interested in, I like the potential tension where both you and your opponent might be interested or discouraged from triggering it depending on how they view the game-state. Fall of Gil-galad To be honest, this card looks to be on the bad side, considering how...

this might be a set for you if you were looking for green artifact support

I don't think EDH popularity is something I want to have inform my cube design or it's going to be buried in mana rocks. Mainstream EDH has a lot of play patterns I don't like. I don't have any experience playing with Invasion of Gobakhan, but I can tell you that you shouldn't evaluate it as a...

If you were to make a "dig" Pokemon, I would choose one that has it as a stronger part of their identity, like Dugtrio, Diggersby or Excadrill. Sandslash is more of a bruiser characterized by its sharp claws and ability to curl into a ball of spikes. like one, immediately after your opponent...

I like it because it says permanent #teamsaga

My favorite card of them is Chwanga, but specifically as a blink enabler I would choose one of the options that doesn't force me to recast the etb creature.

Knowing the core rules of the game is sufficient to understand what Learn does mechanically, you can look at the reminder text of any card that has it and know how to use it provided you have been given the sufficient building blocks. You might ask what a Lesson is, which is essential to...

Anikthea seems quite good to me. Plays very well with Elspeth Conquers Death, The Cruelty of Gix and Touch the Spirit Realm.

No, that's currently only for Secret Lair exclusives. They might make in-universe reprints for certain other UB cards, but are unlikely to do so for all of them (like all of the warhammer 40k cards)
