Pro Comment: Free sacrifice effects that aren’t limited to once per turn always play incredibly well. Your opponent can’t ever rule out that you’re going to use this ability, and they always have to respect it. There is plenty of sacrifice fodder in the format, too.

Pro Comment: This is bad for your mana base, and the fact it is random is a pretty big problem.

Pro Comment: This has great base stats, and if you’re in White you probably have some Spirits to bring back from the graveyard too, which makes her absurdly powerful.

Pro Comment: This is a better Zombie payoff than the one in the main set. Lords are always quite powerful, and the additions of deathtouch and damaging your opponent when a Zombie dies is great.

Pro Comment: Three mana for a three damage instant is already a high pick – so the Morbid upside here turns this into an absolutely incredible burn spell.

Pro Comment: Keep in mind that this card does not say “up to” nor is it optional. In other words, if you want to play this with nothing else on the board, it will ping itself. This isn’t too bad when it can pick off an opposing creature, but there are lots of board states where it just can’t do that.

Pro Comment: This is very powerful when you have a well-stocked graveyard, something that is eminently doable in this format. Cranking out tokens and buffing all of your Zombies makes this a pretty amazing engine.

Pro Comment: This is cool, but it is very difficult to cast this and actually be able to cast some things from your graveyard. You need an enormous amount of mana to make it happen, and that just isn’t something you can do in Limited.

Pro Comment: A 4-mana 3/3 flyer that can crank out 2/2 Flyers is already a bomb, so the fact that the Keeper can transform into a Vampire lord that pumps all of those bats is absolutely insane!

Pro Comment: Five mana is a lot for card that doesn’t impact the board immediately – but Gutter Grime kind of does. It suddenly makes it so all of your creatures give you value when they die, and that value can quickly snowball.

Pro Comment: Generating a 2/2 every turn for only two mana is great! Having to sacrifice a creature every time is less so, even in a format with sacrifice fodder.

Pro Comment: One mana to loot twice is a good deal, and this has flashback. This is an amazing discard outlet for Madness, and can help with delirium too.

Pro Comment: This gives you some insane value, since it makes sure you have something to cast on virtually every turn. Keep in mind you can cast cards from either graveyard, although you do have to have the right colored mana to cast them.

Pro Comment: This is powerful because it reanimates efficiently and does it twice, but this format isn’t loaded up with amazing things to reanimate, limiting its effectiveness. If you’re good at milling yourself and you have a few big scary things around it can do some serious work.

Pro Comment: The boost this offers isn’t really worth it, unless you have a lot of Humans, because then you can turn trades into an advantage.

Pro Comment: This format has lots of quality spells and lots of ways to load the graveyard, so Snapcaster Mage is going to be able to let you recast your powerful spells from your graveyard with regularity.

Pro Comment: A 4-mana 4/1 with Haste is a good card, and this one can grant itself indestructibility with a free sacrifice effect! When you can sacrifice Humans, it even gets bigger. This is a monstrous threat to deal with on virtually any board state, as you just can’t ignore a 4-power evasive creature – and even if you want to do something about it, there’s a good chance you won’t be able to.
