Pest Infestation
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 2.00
Total Times Seen 3
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: This makes the tokens regardless of whether you have targets for it. It's a fairly efficient token generator that feels completely absurd when you actually have targets.
Savage Smash
Average Picked At: 7.20
Total Times Picked: 5
Average Last Seen At: 5.32
Total Times Seen 40
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: This usually punches through a blocker and lets your creature(s) attack far more effectively.
Buried in the Garden
Average Picked At: 4.80
Total Times Picked: 5
Average Last Seen At: 3.36
Total Times Seen 25
Pro Rating: 4
Pro Comment: Ramping and fixing your mana while removing a nonland permanent is incredible.
Electrodominance
Average Picked At: 3.50
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 2.80
Total Times Seen 6
Pro Rating: 2.5
Pro Comment: The burn effect isn't very efficient, and you'd be surprised how infrequently you can actually cast a spell off of this.
Leyline Binding
Average Picked At: 3.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 3.00
Total Times Seen 1
Pro Rating: 3
Pro Comment: This will usually cost 4, which is a pretty solid rate. It will virtually never cost less than three.
Pariah
Average Picked At: 7.00
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 5.79
Total Times Seen 17
Pro Rating: 0
Pro Comment: This basically does nothing in Limited. You can use it as an akward removal spell or a bad fog effect. Neither are things you want.
Primal Command
Average Picked At: 3.00
Total Times Picked: 3
Average Last Seen At: 2.11
Total Times Seen 10
Pro Rating: 1.5
Pro Comment: This is just too clunky to be worthwhile in most decks. The only way you can imapct the board is with the second mode, but only hitting noncreature permanents is a pretty big problem.
Fierce Retribution
Average Picked At: 4.00
Total Times Picked: 9
Average Last Seen At: 3.91
Total Times Seen 38
Pro Rating: 2.5
Pro Comment: This is solid removal, but not much more.
Thoughtseize
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 4.50
Total Times Seen 2
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: This is really good disruption. One mana to take your opponent's best card is awesome, and while it does have diminishing returns, the early-to-midgame upside is well worth it.
Commandeer
Average Picked At: 11.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 5.93
Total Times Seen 17
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.
Anguished Unmaking
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 3.60
Total Times Seen 5
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: Hitting any nonland for three is a great deal.
Collective Defiance
Average Picked At: 2.50
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 1.88
Total Times Seen 8
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.
Murder
Average Picked At: 2.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 2.80
Total Times Seen 15
Pro Rating: 2.5
Pro Comment: This isn't the premium removal it once was, but it's still pretty solid.
Skewer the Critics
Average Picked At: 5.67
Total Times Picked: 6
Average Last Seen At: 4.62
Total Times Seen 29
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: This is fine if you pay three for it, and paying one is awesome and very attainable.
Grindstone
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 4.25
Total Times Seen 4
Pro Rating: 0
Pro Comment: Even if this is a repeatable way to commit crimes, it isn't worth the mana investment.
Fling
Average Picked At: 12.50
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 7.26
Total Times Seen 52
Pro Rating: 1
Pro Comment: It's very hard to make Fling work in Limited. Maybe in a format with a bunch of mercenaries it will fair better?
Bedevil
Average Picked At: 2.00
Total Times Picked: 2
Average Last Seen At: 3.75
Total Times Seen 9
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: Can be a little hard to cast, but it's flexible and efficient enough to be worth taking highly.
Overwhelming Forces
Average Picked At: 2.17
Total Times Picked: 12
Average Last Seen At: 2.24
Total Times Seen 29
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.
Cruel Ultimatum
Average Picked At: 5.00
Total Times Picked: 1
Average Last Seen At: 3.60
Total Times Seen 5
Pro Rating: 2.5
Pro Comment: If you cast this, you probably win. But the mana cost is pretty tricky.
Outlaws' Merriment
Average Picked At: 15.00
Total Times Picked: 0
Average Last Seen At: 3.00
Total Times Seen 1
Pro Rating: 4.5
Pro Comment: You have to wait a turn for it to get going, but once you get there it starts adding some very real bodies to the board, and it can quickly snowball.
