Pack 1 Pick 1: Aven Interrupter
Aven Interrupter
3.5 Delaying a spell and charging a tax while adding a relevant flyer to the board is pretty good. Sometimes your opponent might manage to kill it before their next turn and they don't get the tax in the end, but you still delayed their spell. Happens to hate on Plot in general, too.

Ertha Jo, Frontier Mentor
3.5 I'd be happy just getting a 2/4 and a 1/1 for this cost, but doubling abilities -- including the mercenary token tap abilty, can really alter combat.

Prairie Dog
3.5 A two mana 2/2 with lifelink is a creature you always play, and this can grow fairly easily. In the late game, you can use it's ability as a nice mana sink.

Treasure Dredger
2 This give Black access to some repeatable fixing, which we don't see every day. Still, the stat-line and ability are both pretty medium.

Patient Naturalist
2.5 This won't be quite as good as Eccentric Farmer was, as this format isn't all about the graveyard. But the B/G deck is, and this will do good work there.

Take the Fall
2.5 This looks like it's well-positioned in this format. It's good if you're trying to play two spells a turn in UR, it's good if you're trying to commit crimes in UB, it's good if you're trying to only do stuff on your opponent's turn if you're in Blue-White. It's definitely a small effect, but it replacing itself and having a real effect seems doable.

Bristlepack Sentry
3 This is going to overperform because it counts itself. This means buffing it with a mercenary allows it to attack, as do buffs from counters and equipment.

Quick Draw

Fleeting Reflection
1.5 Hexproof can be nice in the right situation. So can turning your creature into a copy of something else. However, both effects are too narrow for this to make the cut all that often.

Slickshot Vault-Buster

Skullcrack
1 Burn that only hits players is pretty bad in Limited, as it has no impact on the board. It just isn't worth going down a card for 4 damage and nothing else.

Beastbond Outcaster

Jolene, Plundering Pugilist
3 Getting treasure to power out more big stuff is pretty nice, and being able to throw treasure away for pings is great, especially once they outlive their usefuleness in the late game.

Discerning Peddler
2 Red doesn't have much of a discard theme in this set. So, this is mostly just a card with a mediocre statline and a mediocre ETB.

Throw from the Saddle
3.5 This is a great "bite" effect that allows smaller creatures to punch up, and you're going to have enough mounts in Green for that bonus to come up.

Peerless Ropemaster
1.5 It's a decent body, but bounce effects have been getting worse lately with all the ETB abilities and the like. Plus, not being able to bounce a creature that can block is a big problem.

Emergent Haunting
3 I don't love that this does nothing on it's own, but turning into a 3/3 Flyer looks very doable. Heck, just playing in on two and passing on turn three with all your mana up sounds like a good call in many situations anyway.

3 It's a 5-drop so you don't want a bunch of them, but 5-mana for 4/5 worth of stats, 3/4 of which has Flying, is a really good deal. You probably don't want more than one of these, though.

1.5 This is a weirdly defensive stat-line on a creature with an aggressive ability. It's also pretty awkward that Red is one of the colors that wants to cast multiple spells in a turn, and the effect is symmetrical.

Rush of Dread
1.5 These effects sound powerful, but they are surprisingly weak. Your opponent keeps their best cards and their best creatures, and those are the things you're often most worried about.

1 This buff looks tempting, but if it's anything like other cheap haste-granting Equipment, it isn't going to be worth a card.

Assimilation Aegis
4 This is an Oblivion Ring that comes with the upside of making a creature into a copy of the exiled one. That last part isn't always going to be useful, but because this card's already so efficient, it doesn't reall matter. It's upside on a card that's already very good.

Pack 2 Pick 5: Nurturing Pixie
Binding Negotiation
2 It's nice that this can go after Plotted cards. When you do that it will almost feel like Time Walk. It still has the downside of most discard spells of course -- it doesn't impact the board and has dimnishing returns the later games get, but it's efficient enough to be solid.

2 Killing things that have already been damaged is surprisingly hard to take advantage of. They pushed this pretty hard with all these keywords, so I think it'll be better than most similar creatures we have seen. But it's still nothing special.
