Ghostly Prison
AI Rating: -0Pro Rating: 2
This tax can really be a burden for your opponent, as it can make them choose between trying to race or developing their board. If you’re really far behind it isn’t nearly as useful, but at parity or if you’re ahead it can be nice enough.
Fabricate
AI Rating: -0Pro Rating: 0
Three mana tutors aren’t good in Limited. It’s like adding a tax of 3 mana to whatever your best Artifact is, and it isn’t like this format has a ton of Artifacts anyway.
Show and Tell
AI Rating: 2.5Pro Rating: 0
This is great in Legacy and Vintage where you can put absurd stuff into play that your opponent has no hope of matching, but in Limited there’s a good chance you lose the game by casting this.
Tragic Slip

Victimize
AI Rating: 4.3Pro Rating: 3
If you have some fodder and a well-stocked graveyard, this can give you some pretty awesome value. The set up is real, though.
Gamble
AI Rating: -0Pro Rating: 0
2-for-1ing myself and hoping I don’t discard the thing I tutored is a good way to lose.
Crashing Footfalls
AI Rating: 4.4Pro Rating: 3
If you suspend this on turn one, there’s a pretty good chance you’re going to win that game. If you get it later in the game it can be pretty brutal though, as it takes forever to actually do its thing
Tireless Tracker
AI Rating: 4.7Pro Rating: 5
It spits out clues like crazy and grows throughout the game, it's a massive bomb.
Drown in the Loch
AI Rating: 3.1Pro Rating: 1.5
This format doesn't have a mill deck, and players can exile cards with one of the main mechanics, so I'm skeptical Drown in the Loch will work out here.
Field of the Dead
AI Rating: 2.5Pro Rating: 0
Not enough common or uncommon non-basic lands in the format to have any hope of getting this going.
Stoneforge Mystic
AI Rating: -0Pro Rating: 0.0 // 3.5
There's some legit equipment in this format, and if you've got a couple, the Mystic is worth running.
Brazen Borrower
AI Rating: 4.6Pro Rating:
Desertion
AI Rating: 3.9Pro Rating: 2.5
If you counter an artifact or creature spell with this, it feels awesome. If you don't, it's super inefficient.
Morbid Opportunist
AI Rating: -0Pro Rating: 4
Drawing cards with this is exceedingly simple. It counts your creatures or your opponent's, so combat, removal, sacrifice. It all works.
Port Razer
AI Rating: -0Pro Rating: 1.5
It's hard to take advantage of extra combat steps, and this creature is pretty inefficient.
Scapeshift
AI Rating: 2.9Pro Rating: 0
This is a combo enabler in 60-card formats. It's a nothing-enabler in 40-card formats.
Mystic Snake
AI Rating: 2.3Pro Rating: 3
Countering a spell and adding a 2/2 to the board -- all with one card -- is pretty powerful.
Notion Thief
AI Rating: -0Pro Rating: 2
Stealing draws with this is sweet, but it isn't going to happen often enough for this to be the powerhouse it is in other formats.
Desert
AI Rating: -0Pro Rating: 2
This has a useful sub-type in the format, can commit crimes, and the ability is actually pretty nice in general. It'll be worth using in some decks.
Prismatic Vista
AI Rating: -0Pro Rating: 3
This is an evolving wilds that puts the land into play untapped, which is awesome.
