The thing is that milling away a land doesn't really take away from their probability of drawing another one. A 1/1 creature isn't really worth a card. How many times do you need to activate the Mystic before you've gotten your card / mana's worth? Heliod's Dictate is fine, but it'd...

Dakra Mystic Let's talk about this card.

Oops, I totally meant the 18th. Sorry everybody.

Is this card better than Bonehoard? Because that card always super underperformed even though my brain always tried to convince me it's awesome.

I'll be honest and say I haven't played much recently. Punishing Fire I definitely saw get used well (with multiple rebuys off of Grove), and Kavu Predator is still probably borderline.

I considered it but it feels a little weak. Maybe I have to see it in action, but I'm not really seeing it as cutting the "gold card" mustard.

Unearth is in blue too!

Less than what?

Yeah, but a huge part of Magic theory is about trying to assess the value of conversion of resources. Nothing but a card is ever a card, but I think it's an interesting discussion that's presented some insightful statements.

This is a very good post. Kudos.

I like it, but I wonder if you want 2 Zuran Orb-esque effects floating around, since they're so narrow. The sacrifice deck itself doesn't actually want this card, I think. Even if you have a ton of Threaten effects, you usually have more relevant sac outlets, and don't care about the life gain.

As a general rule Scry gets much better if you know what you want, specifics or not. That's why the T1 Preordain play was often really shit, because you just don't know what you need at that point. Do you need the lands? The wrath? Who knows.

Highly relevant.

I know, I was just being a turd.

Or, uh, vigilance themed cubes?

I don't know if Index is a fair comparison because putting to the bottom is most of the point of Scrying.

I talk about this card in my Set Review (coming soon).
