The dearth of two-drops is why I like trying to build around Dreadhorde Invasion. I think combining it with Priest and Ayara could actually be big game

Eej posted:[MTG forum thread] Gray Merchant is a powerful card that shows off the plane's headline mechanic. It's also way too powerful for draft at common. Good reprint.

mono blue devotion will be a thing with the six mana instant speed time walk ancestral recall that also makes a token planeswalker with a +2 that forces your opponent to post mad online.

We already have Yorvo in that slot. The CCC stuff won't be as good as the Dom cycle with devotion in the format.

  I guess sometimes you need a slow Grapple with the Past with marginal upside?

Sagas are good, and a good thematic fit for Theros.

It's probably more for anti Cat Food tech. (Not that it's necessarily more efficient than Return To Nature, but still.) Otherwise, I'm glad Sagas are back for Theros. It'll be interesting to see how they are best utilized for a set that is so enchantment focused.

The green one that turned all your mans into dork then gave them indestructible and counters was alright, and sometimes you could go off with the one that turned all your artifacts into beaters. It's a pretty cool design space.

I suspect TacoNight at least was being facetious, but targeted graveyard exile that triggers in your main phase literally doesn't hate out either of those things. Well, I guess it can hate out Cat Food if your opponent is an idiot.

really I think it's a ~sixth pick quality card that looks almost like a standard card(Grapple was standard playable) and there's not a whole lot else to say about it. In limited it sets up your escape cards while potentially knocking out some of your opponent's and doesn't cost you card. Would be nice if it could get you your third land drop t3 like Grapple can but it can do it t4 at least being an underpowered safety valve against god-eternals on the side is cool too I guess
