Pro Comment: If you always cast this face up it's already a solid card that always makes the cut, but the fact you can play it face down and turn your death toucher face up for no mana at all makes it evne easier for you to set up advantageous trades. And you even get to lower your opponent's life!

Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: It isn't quite as broken here as it is in 60-card formats, because you can't load your graveyard quite as quickly -- but you definitely can get this to the point where you are paying a tiny amount of mana to draw 3. You want one in most Blue decks, but not more than one.
Sultai Ascendancy

Pro Rating: 1
Pro Comment: This Ascendancy is a dud. Sure, you want to load your graveyard and get some card selection, but you don't want to spend a whole card on this effect.
Shambling Attendants

Total Times Picked: 9
Average Last Seen At: 9.26
Total Times Seen 75
Pro Rating: 2.5
Pro Comment: A 3/5 death touch is a really frustrating body for your opponent to contend with, and you can get this down for 3 or 4 mana reasonably often.

Pro Comment: You're usually going to be choosing both, and tapping something and killing a small creature for three is a good deal.
Heir of the Wilds

Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 2.00
Total Times Seen 3
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: A two mana 2/2 deathtouch is a nice starting point, and this often attacks as a 3/3.

Pro Comment: This is a hard-hitting flyer that doesn't stay dead and damages your opponent every time it turns face up. That's a text book bomb.
Thornwood Falls

Total Times Picked: 10
Average Last Seen At: 5.40

Pro Rating: 3
Pro Comment: Fixing is extra important in this wedge-focused set, so these gain lands are higher picks than they normally are.
Murderous Cut
Average Picked At: 2.00
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 1.33
Total Times Seen 4
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: This often feels like it only costs a single Black mana, and it would be premium removal if it always cost 4.
Witness of the Ages
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 6.73
Total Times Seen 19
Pro Rating: 1.5
Pro Comment: This never feels efficient, but like most morph creatures in this format it isn't unplayable either.
Bloodfire Mentor
Average Picked At: 12.14
Total Times Picked: 7
Average Last Seen At: 9.91
Total Times Seen 89
Pro Rating: 1.5
Pro Comment: If you need to make a game go long, you could do worse than this. The body blocks reasonably well and it can dig you deeper in your library to find your outs. It doesn't do any of it efficiently, though.

Pro Rating: 1.5
Pro Comment: As usual, spell copiers in Limited don't tend to work out very well. This one does have an impressive ceiling thanks to Raid, but it still takes too much work to get going.
Ride Down
Average Picked At: 5.80
Total Times Picked: 5
Average Last Seen At: 4.75
Total Times Seen 15
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: This is a beating if you're an aggro deck. Most of the time, removal spells that only kill blockers aren't great for aggro, since it means you're not doing damage. That's not the case here, though! Because it gives your creature trample, it's effectively like youre creature went unblocked and you kill their creature.

Feat of Resistance

Total Times Picked: 7
Average Last Seen At: 3.44
Total Times Seen 24
Pro Rating: 3
Pro Comment: This is a nice trick in any set, as it has the ability to allow your creature to easily win combat and/or save it for removal. It can even make a creature unblockable in a pinch. Then, you throw in Prowess and +1/+1 counter synergies, and we're talking about an awesome Common.

Pro Comment: The first two modes carry most of the weight here, as it can be an efficient fight spell or a counterspell. The third mode comes up rarely, but when it's good, it tends to be really good.

Pro Comment: Putting a counter on all your stuff can vary wildly from being amazing when you've gone really wide, to being quite bad if you have one or two creatures. But luckily this has another effect, and it helps balance things out. Getting a 1/1 flyer when your stuff dies is no small thing. If you're ahead, you can use them to go after your opponent. If you're behind, you can use them to stabilize.

Pro Comment: This card is really cool, but not very good. It's overcosted to play, and it's ability being random and requiring mana to use is rough. It also is kind of a nonbo alongside Delve, which is a much better way to abuse your graveyard anyway.

Pro Comment: Not enough targets for this. Bring it in out of the sideboard.
