    I think there's one outlast creature that is better than Abzan Falconer: Herald of Anafenza Herald of Anafenza is awesome because it's an army in a can for Aggro and Midrange strategies alike. It can be good turn-one play for a Hypergeometric White aggro deck, or can help with re-building after...

    It seems like every time I go to cut my enchantments matter cards, WOTC decides it's a good time to print another enchantment payoff. This card is better than some of the other options we have seen so far for this deck, as it comes down on turn 2 and can start drawing cards on turn three...

    The most powerful reanimator targets we currently have access to tend to almost "immediately" win the game the turn they come into play. For example, Griselbrand's card advantage ability can be impossible for an opponent to recover from, and Apex Altisaur can wipe an entire board if the opponent...

    I think the Archon is a great reanimation target. It provides immediate value when entering the battlefield, meaning that dying before an attack is not that big of a deal. However, it kills slowly enough that the opposing player has a little bit of time to come up with an answer! It seems like a...

    Yeah, I'm very happy that I chose to up my power level a bit, a bunch of these cards fit naturally with what I am trying to accomplish without necessarily forcing me in a new direction. I mean, look at this thing: It's a Avalanche Riders dragon! Unlike Stormbreath Dragon which punishes White...

    This card has actual potential for high-power formats. Abiding Grace goes in: -Mono White Aggro -W/x Blink/Aristocrats Midrange -Boros Burn -Jeskai Prowess -Gwx Dork Ramp -Zoo Granted, for some of these archetypes, it's more of a Sideboard card against either a Control or Midrange style...

    [Inscho's GY Combo Cube Seat B] -TrainmasterGT- Last Train to Clarksville

    Yeah, I got my second CoVID shot dose the other day and I have had a fever of 101 for the past two days. I'm feeling better this morning, I'll finish it now.

    You know, I wasn't originally going to consider this card, but I actually might now. Basically, I found that all of the Constellation stuff in W/G just didn't work that well because most of the good enchantments cost like 1-3 mana and all of the best payoffs are 3-6 mana. The only "generically...

    This card looks neat in low-power, value-oriented environments. I don't even think you necessarily need explicit synergies for this card to do something worthwhile. You just need to be in a format where spending 4 mana on a 2/1 with a regrowth stapled on isn't an abysmal floor, and you can...

    Double post but I think this is a good one- meet Esper Sentinel! I think this card is going to be a really neat way to help aggressive White decks maintain a reasonable card count against spell-heavy midrange and control strategies. Realistically, those decks won't always be able to pay the...

    Well I'll be damned- the White member of the Evoke Elemental Incarnation cycle is actually good! I'm quite a big fan of this card, it seems like the usual mana advantage gain that can make cards like Swords to Plowshares and Path to Exile so strong in limited formats is offset here by having to...

    I don't think this is true at all. Venser was pretty mediocre when I ran him in a mid-power environment, and I can't see him getting better anywhere up the curve. A lot of the environments that run high-power cards and are still able to accommodate Venser tend to be slow or more inconsistent...

    Oh for sure. Ravagan looks like it will be a really fun card to play in Constructed and some high power environments, but I think that it's not a great choice if you support a real aggro deck that isn't at the top end of the "fair" power band. I think it provides way too much value for slower...

    Probably because it's harder to splash. Bake into a Pie is already a mediocre card because of its high mana cost for what amounts to a Murder with a tiny upside, and the fact that it isn't easily splashed basically kills it for 90% of Cubes.
