Pro Comment: This format has a ton of X/1s, so this is actually something you can play in your main deck without feeling terrible. It is probably still better to start in your sideboard, but if you’re in need of one more playable card, it can do it.

Pro Comment: This is a nice little trick for the Vampire decks. +2/+2 for one mana is always a decent rate for aggro decks, as it can really help you win combat – and that’s even more true if you’re using it on a Vampire.

Pro Comment: This has a fairly powerful effect, as bouncing all of your opponent’s stuff obviously has a huge impact on the board. However, it is really only useful aggressively. If you use this just to slow your opponent down, you’re not going to be doing a great job – though it can do that, obviously enough. Ideally, you use it to help you get in with a big swing or even a lethal one

Pro Comment: Don’t fixate on the fact this can’t kill Merfolk. It still kills almost everything in the format, and it does it incredibly efficiently

Pro Comment: Even if your deck only has a few cards with Explore, this is really good, as it has passable stats and the Explore payoff is pretty massive. Gaining that life is especially good at helping you turn the game into a grindy one, and the Walker getting bigger and bigger is a very big deal. If you end up with a lot of Explore, there’s a good chance this is the best card in your deck

Pro Comment: So this is a card that you tap out for and it doesn’t add to the board right away, but it really pays you off for that, since you get to effectively draw an extra card every turn this is in play. Even with the extra card, transforming this isn’t the easiest thing ever, but the good news is its really powerful even if you aren’t transforming it. That said, being able to Bolt things for 3 damage over and over again is also quite powerful

Pro Comment: You will be really happy whether you get a 3-mana 2/2 that draws you a card, or a 3-mana 3/3 with Surveil 1. This is great value

Pro Comment: If your deck has a good number of dinosaurs, this is a pretty decent card. If you play it on turn one and are able to gain 2 life off of it over your first few turns you’re getting pretty good value. And, really, that’s where most of this card’s value comes from, as the tutor effect on it is super expensive. It doesn’t hurt that it can tutor up a dino though, especially because some of them are bombs!

Pro Comment: Because this format is so aggressive and involves so much combat, Skullduggery can give you some serious blowouts – even 2-for-1s – and doing that for one mana is big. Now, it is still mostly a trick, and that makes it situational, but there isn’t really a Black deck in this format where you don’t want a couple of these.

Pro Comment: This is unplayable. There aren’t enough activated abilities around that are worth turning off, and even if you do name something where you take away an ability, you aren’t going to get a full card of value out of this

Pro Comment: These card’s that basically just blink/flicker something are almost never good in Limited. They are too situational. Even in a Pirate deck, where you get a cantrip, this still isn’t very exciting

Pro Comment: A 4-mana 3/3 that gives you a 1/1 token is always a decent card, and this one gives you a life link token and both creatures come with a nice creature type!

Pro Comment: This card is one of the ideal Common payoffs for the Vampire deck in this format. +2/+0 can really allow you to send in a whole lot of creatures, including tokens with lifelink, and in a pinch it can even just pump itself, though it is far better when you can use it to just keep sending in a threatening creature every turn

Pro Comment: This format has a lot of cheap creatures, so a card like this would normally be at a bit of a disadvantage, since paying 5 to kill a two drop is brutal – but like most cards that make Treasure in this format, this is better than it looks. You get two mana back, so the card is really more efficient than it looks.

Pro Comment: This is a nice attacker in the early game, and it has an ability that helps it remain relevant all game long. Being able to protect your creatures from removal – simply by leaving up a Blue mana – can really wreak havoc on your opponent

Pro Comment: This is a decent two-drop, especially in a Dinosaur deck, but it isn’t much more than that

Pro Comment: 4 mana is kind of a lot for sorcery-speed removal, but this can answer any nonland permanent and that’s pretty nice. Occasionally you’ll even get to keep your opponent from casting other copies of the card you exile, but that won’t come up very much.

Pro Comment: This is really held back by the fact that it costs Double Red. Treasure cards are at their best when they can really help you in the early game, and this just won’t do that because the mana cost is a challenge in Limited. It is fine if your deck has 12 or so Mountains, but your mana base won’t usually look like that

Pro Comment: This can attack and block pretty well on a lot of boards, since it can threaten to kill a decent chunk of creatures who choose to engage with it. Needing to have the mana available is a real cost, and it isn’t quite as easy to take advantage of the ability as it might look at first, but it does definitely alter the way your opponent attacks and blocks.
