Billowing Shriekmass
Average Picked At: 7.18
Total Times Picked: 11
Average Last Seen At: 6.13
Total Times Seen 87
Pro Rating: 3
Pro Comment: This helps set up graveyard stuff while also frequently becoming a 4/4 flyer as a result of it's trigger.
Tatyova, Benthic Druid
Average Picked At: 5.41
Total Times Picked: 17
Average Last Seen At: 4.76
Total Times Seen 90
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: Her Landfall trigger wins games, and while she's a bit slow and has a bad stat-line, the life she gains you helps make up for that -- and makes it more likely you'll cast those new cards you draw, too.
Shivan Dragon
Average Picked At: 8.43
Total Times Picked: 14
Average Last Seen At: 6.30
Total Times Seen 109
Pro Rating: 2
Pro Comment: This can win the game, but it's big, slow and clunky. It's a passable top-curve threat.
Plains
Average Picked At: 13.88
Total Times Picked: 17
Average Last Seen At: 10.64
Total Times Seen 243
Soulstone Sanctuary
Average Picked At: 6.00
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 3.62
Total Times Seen 24
Pro Rating: 3
Pro Comment: This hurts your mana base for sure, but having a land that can permanently turn into a creature is a big deal in the late game.
Thrill of Possibility
Average Picked At: 9.88
Total Times Picked: 34
Average Last Seen At: 8.62
Total Times Seen 340
Pro Rating: 2
Pro Comment: This is always a decent card, especially in spell decks that can use it to chain multiple spell triggers together.
Elfsworn Giant
Average Picked At: 8.24
Total Times Picked: 49
Average Last Seen At: 7.92
Total Times Seen 325
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: This is a very strong landfall trigger, and while the stat-line isn't incredible, it's not thard to make sure you get at least one 1/1 out of this, and if it's left alone, it becomes a value engine.
Thousand-Year Storm
Average Picked At: 9.50
Total Times Picked: 4
Average Last Seen At: 5.58
Total Times Seen 55
Pro Rating: 0
Pro Comment: It's very difficult to make this do anything in Limited. You just don't cast enough instants and sorceries in a single turn for it to go off.
Genesis Wave
Average Picked At: 8.50
Total Times Picked: 6
Average Last Seen At: 6.42
Total Times Seen 47
Pro Rating: 1
Pro Comment: You need a ton of mana for casting this to be worthwhile, and you just can't get there in Limited often enough.
Vampire Soulcaller
Average Picked At: 9.90
Total Times Picked: 39
Average Last Seen At: 8.05
Total Times Seen 337
Pro Rating: 2
Pro Comment: Not being able to block is a big downside, as it makes it way harder to generate a 2-for-1 with this than with something like Gravedigger.
Ravenous Amulet
Average Picked At: 9.28
Total Times Picked: 18
Average Last Seen At: 7.33
Total Times Seen 138
Pro Rating: 1.5
Pro Comment: This is too slow to work out very well. If you have lots of fodder you might be able to go off, though.
Courageous Goblin
Average Picked At: 10.20
Total Times Picked: 35
Average Last Seen At: 8.35
Total Times Seen 301
Pro Rating: 2.5
Pro Comment: This'll be able to rumble on turn 3 as a 3/2 Menace reasonably often in this format.
Sure Strike
Average Picked At: 11.05
Total Times Picked: 37
Average Last Seen At: 9.39
Total Times Seen 385
Pro Rating: 1.5
Pro Comment: This is a good trick in combat, but it's a little bit expensive and not useful against most removal.
Alesha, Who Laughs at Fate
Average Picked At: 2.00
Total Times Picked: 8
Average Last Seen At: 2.00
Total Times Seen 13
Pro Rating: 4.5
Pro Comment: This is a great Raid trigger -- even just reanimating one thing is huge, and because she gets bigger every time she attacks and has first strike, triggering it more than once is definitely on the table.
Sire of Seven Deaths
Average Picked At: 1.17
Total Times Picked: 6
Average Last Seen At: 1.17
Total Times Seen 6
Pro Rating: 5
Pro Comment: All of those keywords means it's basically impossible to block or attack through the Sire, and it'll also gain it's controller tons of life. Ward makes sure your opponent gets punished hard if they can kill it.
Reassembling Skeleton
Average Picked At: 6.59
Total Times Picked: 17
Average Last Seen At: 5.62
Total Times Seen 88
Pro Rating: 1.5 // 3.0
Pro Comment: This isn't great if you're just planning on bringing it back to chump with it, but if you have something meaningful to do with the body -- or you're good at milling -- it can be a nice card.
Chandra, Flameshaper
Average Picked At: 2.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 3.00
Total Times Seen 3
Pro Rating: 5
Pro Comment: 7 mana's a lot, but Chandra's going to win you the game almost every time. Her -4 can wipe your opponent's board, and then her other abilities allow you to take over the game.
Fiendish Panda
Average Picked At: 5.80
Total Times Picked: 15
Average Last Seen At: 4.30
Total Times Seen 65
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: This is usually going to be a 2-for-1, and if you're good at gaining life it can become a threat in its own right.
Fiery Annihilation
Average Picked At: 2.50
Total Times Picked: 18
Average Last Seen At: 3.19
Total Times Seen 52
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: This kills most stuff and turns off death triggers and any threat of recursion. Format has a decent number of equipment, too.
Swiftblade Vindicator
Average Picked At: 7.09
Total Times Picked: 11
Average Last Seen At: 5.75
Total Times Seen 47
Pro Rating: 3
Pro Comment: You need to do a little bit of extra work with counters, auras, and the like for this to really go off -- but the baseline is fine too.
