for shame wizards, let me do the typing thing

A changer of ways
You can't just pick a job and say whether it's a present, there is a social context to consider. Eldraine with it's emphasis on knights and kings is a different social milleau than Innistrad or other planes.
That said the queen of bears is clearly a noble, get your poo poo together WotC.

So apparently Arcum's Astrolabe was a mistake for more than just Pauper (LSV thinks it was a mistake) I got to thinking - has WotC ever printed a one-mana permanent that drew a card when it came into play? Turns out they have printed 5 in all of magic - one is Astrolabe, and the other four are auras -







Did I miss any?

Does that include promos? Because then most of the manabase would still work from that from BFZ. You still get Brainstorm, Thoughtseize, Swords...

You know, this gimmicky Simic Ascension/hydra tribal deck can brick really hard but sometimes you just end up getting to 17 mana turn 3 and I'm considering putting in a bigger creature as a target for Finale of Devastation so I can just swing in for a win with it too.

Hmmm.

Yes to upshifts, no to promos. There's a lot of common/uncommon/rare promos, but mythic upshifts seem to only be done for chase bait.
