Pro Comment: The planeswalker part of the card is usually irrelevant, although it is pretty hilarious when it is active. Still, for Limited, we have to ignore that part of the card when we evaluate it. Mostly, this is a two mana 3/1 that can grow that also happens to be a food, that also happens to like having other food and artifacts around. It works quite well with both food and Bargain

Pro Comment: 5/5 worth of stats for 4 mana is a great starting point, and the Gutter-Dweller also happens to be able to grow and draw you cards using the expendable bodies he gives you. This can really snowball out of control in a big way

Pro Comment: This is really bad when you don’t Bargain, as an 8-mana draw 2 doesn’t even close to moving the needle. HOWEVER, bargaining this is easy enough and the format has enough ramp, that I think Thunderous Debut is going to have a huge impact when you cast it. It’s going to be near impossible not to get at least 8 mana worth of value out of 2 creatures from the top 20 cards of your deck and this is a 2-for-1

Pro Comment: This is pretty solid every time we see it. It’s not going to be as good here as it would be an artifact-heavy set, but it replaces itself and does an okay job of fixing your mana

Pro Comment: A three mana 3/3 that hates on the graveyard isn’t bad, and the fact Skitter churns out Rats is pretty nuts. Even if they can’t block, they give you the ability to pressure your opponent and they provide excellent sacrifice fodder.

Pro Comment: This is a sideboard card. Most opponents won’t have enough things you can counter with this for it to be worth it.

Pro Comment: This makes X/1s pretty miserable as they can neither attack through it or block it effectively. Overall, it is definitely a defensive card more than anything, and that’s always a little awkward

Pro Comment: You’ll often be able to pick off something small with the Adventure, and that means you’re talking about a potential 2-for-1. Then you get a 2/2 Flyer that can become a real problem of an attacker, especially when you leave your mana up, because your opponent has no idea exactly how big the Familiar is going to be

Pro Comment: An Enchantress effect is looking pretty good in this format, even on a card that specifically cares about Auras. One of the big mechanics in the set just makes Aura tokens, so the Lookout is going ot be able to drw you a card pretty often. It’s also nice that it is a ⅔, as I feel like often times we’d get a 2/2 with this text box. That 3rd toughness makes a pretty huge difference in making the card’s baseline a lot less miserable

Pro Comment: Cursing an opposing creature isn’t the most powerful thing in the world, but when you Bargain this does upgrade your board and downgrade your opponents reasonably effectively.

Pro Comment: A two mana 2/2 that makes a Food on ETB is already a solid playable – especially because this happens to be a Food itself, giving it even more upside and synergy. The activated ability will not be something you are always able to find the time to use, but there will also be turns where this thing animates a couple of foods and really makes your opponent’s life difficult. Note, by the way, it can animate other noncreature artifacts too. While Food is going to be the most typical thing it will animate, there are some other cards in the format it can turn into 4/4s too

Pro Comment: A draw spell that adds to the board sounds attractive. It’s too bad that the thing it adds to the board is so insignificant though, and it makes me think this is probably a little bit too clunky to be something that always makes the cut in your Blue decks

Pro Comment: This is really good against removal, less good in combat. +1/+1 just isn’t a boost that will help your creature succeed often enough

Pro Comment: This has almost reasonable stats, and reducing the costs of spells has some extra weight in this format thanks to Adventures, in addition to the fact that it just plays well in any Blue/Red deck.

Pro Comment: This will never let you trade up, and that’s one of the best things to do with removal spells. With this, you’ll kill something that cost the same or less. Getting that Food helps, but you don’t even always get it.

Pro Comment: This card is awful when you don’t control a Faerie. When you do, it offers some powerful disruption, but it gets a lot less powerful when you aren’t able to use it on turn one. Even a Faerie deck will find itself without Faeries in play in the early game, and this card’s value certainly diminishes when you can’t cast it during that time.

Pro Comment: This is an interesting take on this type of effect since the creature gets to return with a buff. Unfortunately, when we see this effect completely absent of an upfront power boost, it hasn’t really played super well. It does work well against removal, but not working that well in combat is a an issue.

Pro Comment: I like this. Getting a spell to your hand when you play a creature with passable stats sounds really good, and there are enough expendable things around in this format for that to work out pretty well. I will say Blue is probably lighter on expendable things to Bargain than any other color – it doesn’t have much in the way of treasure or food, and it even has fewer role tokens, so this won’t work out quite as well as some other Bargain cards in other colors. That said, you won’t be playing monoblue, so you may have access to that stuff anyway, and when you give up something like that, Tenacious Tomeseeker is going to be a 2-for-1

Pro Comment: A one mana 2/1 can get in for decent damage on the first couple of turns, but tends to become irrelevant fairly quickly. This helps overcome that by letting you put a Young Hero Role on something, and while it’s not the most amazing of the Roles, since it requires the creature to be small to get a buff from it, it does mean the Veteran can significantly augment your creatures in some situations
