    Chiming in as well to say I really like these too, great job. By filling it with ships!

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    It's good in like turbo-ramp decks where you can empty your hand quickly to generate mana, and then use this to reload whilst your opponent only gets 1-2 extra cards out of it. Also any deck that can make lands generate more than one mana can often find a way to use it.

    That would be much more balanced, and in fact is very close to an existing card Words of Wilding which is far from broken, so it's probably fine.

    I'd say the question you ask here is whether a 0 mana 3/3 trample is going to be better than the average card in your deck, and the answer is most of the time going to be "yes". It also pops off huge with instant speed card draw, especially X spells - if you have Sphinx's Rev/Blue Sun's Zenith...

    Someone pointed out that his 0 ability is the same as Sarkhan the Mad's, so maybe there is something about him losing his sanity in the lore.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Thank you, I was sure I'd seen someone talking about it but I couldn't find the thread. Unbound Flourishing with the finales seems pretty nuts, it's much easier to trigger the 10+ effect. Might be worth looking into... (Edit: just realised this doesn't work, I was thinking it doubles X on...

    More of a double card spotlight for this one Rosheen Meanderer Unbound Flourishing Are these two together enough to form the basis for an "X cost matters" theme? How many X costs do you think you would need to make them proper build arounds? I just have a dream of curving them into each...

    I love the RW monarch deck in pauper. It's completely different to what you'd expect out of a Boros deck.

    Be prepared to answer the question "Is Dark Depths in here?" 2-3 times per draft.

    My Marvellous/Mediocre Magic Thread

    We did ours on a google sheet, but over a few days rather than all being there at once. We proxied up the decks for one, and did one or two others on MTGO, but for most of them we never ended up playing the games.

    I wasn't allowed Aether Searcher when we did Vintage Rotisserie draft, and I'm still salty. We did a few in a row, and we did a couple mix-ups like one where you had to pick cards in ascending CMC from 0 to 6 and back down again, with 6 including all higher costs, and a mono blue plus...

    There's also Twinblade Assassins from the new set, which oh wow I just noticed was a 5/4. I thought it was a 3/2. Higher floor, but only triggers once per turn cycle.

    Scarecrone Is this good without any other scarecrows, but with some good artifact creatures to rebuy?

    Sounds like there's enough that I hadn't thought about to give him a try. I don't run bouncelands, but Crystal Shard/Karakas definitely make him more appealing.
