Buried in the Garden
Average Picked At: 4.75
Total Times Picked: 4
Average Last Seen At: 3.25
Total Times Seen 19
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: Ramping and fixing your mana while removing a nonland permanent is incredible.
Essence Capture
Average Picked At: 6.25
Total Times Picked: 4
Average Last Seen At: 5.45
Total Times Seen 35
Pro Rating: 2.5
Pro Comment: When it lines up, this feels pretty good.
Collective Defiance
Average Picked At: 2.50
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 1.50
Total Times Seen 6
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: You'll usually cast this as 4 mana to do 4 to a creature and 3 to your opponent, but you can obviously mix and match, giving it way more upside.
Overwhelming Forces
Average Picked At: 2.17
Total Times Picked: 6
Average Last Seen At: 2.45
Total Times Seen 20
Pro Rating: 2
Pro Comment: The ceiling here is nuts, as it's a one-sided wrath that draws you a ton of cards. So, casting it means game over. However, 8 mana is a colossal amount.
Void Rend
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 3.50
Total Times Seen 4
Pro Rating: 3
Pro Comment: A little hard to cast, but hitting any nonland is a big deal.
Skewer the Critics
Average Picked At: 4.80
Total Times Picked: 5
Average Last Seen At: 4.50
Total Times Seen 17
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: This is fine if you pay three for it, and paying one is awesome and very attainable.
Crackle with Power
Average Picked At: 1.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 2.00
Total Times Seen 4
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: This was a bomb in Strixhaven, but that was a ramp-heavy format, so I think it falls short here. Still, the baseline is a 5-mana deal 5, and if you can make it an 8 mana spell that does 10 to two creatures, you're going to win.
Mindbreak Trap
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 2.50
Total Times Seen 2
Pro Rating: 0
Pro Comment: This is basically an inefficient counterspell. People rarely put enough stuff on the stack in Limited for this to be more than a bad one-for-one.
Unlicensed Hearse
Average Picked At: 3.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 1.67
Total Times Seen 6
Pro Rating: 2.5
Pro Comment: This can get pretty big, but this format isn't into the graveyard enough for it to be a powerhouse.
Repulse
Average Picked At: 4.50
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 3.62
Total Times Seen 17
Pro Rating: 3
Pro Comment: Drawing and bouncing for three mana at instant speed is a very good rate. You end up with tempo and you break even on cards, but it has blowout potential too.
Archive Trap
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 3.88
Total Times Seen 9
Pro Rating: 0
Pro Comment: 13 cards is a lot in Limited, but this still basically does nothing, except when your opponent actually runs out of cards. You'll cast if for 0 on occasion, but it still isn't worth it.
Villainous Wealth
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 4.50
Total Times Seen 2
Pro Rating: 2
Pro Comment: You have to pump a lot into X for this to be worthwhile, and while that might work as a win condition in some of the slower decks, we'll see if this format even allows for such a thing.
Surgical Extraction
Average Picked At: 11.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 6.11
Total Times Seen 12
Pro Rating: 0
Pro Comment: Commiting a crime for free is a thing, but going down a card to do it generally isn't worth it, especially with a card that has an almost entirely meaningless effect.
Grindstone
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 3.33
Total Times Seen 3
Pro Rating: 0
Pro Comment: Even if this is a repeatable way to commit crimes, it isn't worth the mana investment.
Journey to Nowhere
Average Picked At: 2.00
Total Times Picked: 4
Average Last Seen At: 1.78
Total Times Seen 11
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: Exiling a creature for two mana is pretty insane, even if your opponent can potentially get it back later.
Commandeer
Average Picked At: 11.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 6.00
Total Times Seen 13
Pro Rating: 0
Pro Comment: This is too situational and expensive. Casting it for free isn't super easy or worth it in Limited, either.
Oko, Thief of Crowns
Average Picked At: 1.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 1.00
Total Times Seen 1
Pro Rating: 5
Pro Comment: This rating comment was turned into an Elk.
Primal Might
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 1.00
Total Times Seen 1
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: This is a great fight spell that scales all game long, and often allows for a way better attack after clearing out a blocker.
Vanishing Verse
Average Picked At: 5.00
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 4.14
Total Times Seen 8
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: This can hit almost every permanent in the format for only two mana.
Hindering Light
Average Picked At: 11.17
Total Times Picked: 6
Average Last Seen At: 8.48
Total Times Seen 58
Pro Rating: 2
Pro Comment: This feels good when you can cast it, but it is a little too narrow to be good.
