Pro Comment: These all offer really great fixing for a set with three color factions, and adding Cycling to the mix is actually a pretty big deal, because it means if you’re flooding late, this is a land you can just throw away. The fact they all have three land types also provides for some additional upside.

Pro Comment: 4 mana to do 7 at instant speed is pretty good, and will allow you to kill almost anything – unless it has a pesky Shield counter. Its nice that it has the upside of blowing up artifacts or enchantments if you do lethal damage, and that will probably actually come up sometimes, but most of the card’s value just comes from it being a removal spell – and a really good one.

Pro Comment: This is great removal, since it can deal with anything, and being uncounterable might even come up on occasion! The downside of course is the mana cost, which you won’t always be able to get when you really want to cast this card, but mana is good enough in this format that this still seems really good.

Pro Comment: Say hello to the new Thragtusk that is just..mostly better than Thragtusk, which is kind of nuts! This more than gives you your mana’s worth, whether you cast it normally or Blitz it. Casting it normally is probably better most of the time, since it is such a pain to block or attack into for your opponent, since they know you’re going to get a sizable creature token when the Warchief dies. Blitzing it can generate some even more absurd advantage though, which is why they put it at one mana higher. You get 3 life, a 4/4, and a 5/3 trampler Ball Lightning that draws you a card when it dies. Yeah, this is definitely a bomb. Just too much value!

Pro Comment: Cards that just fight and don’t offer a stats boost of any kind tend to be pretty medium. Buffing the creature makes it so that a wider variety of creatures can do something useful with them, and you just don’t get that here at all. It does combo interestingly with shield tokens, since it can enable you to fight with a shielded creature without losing it, and that does kind of expand the range of creatures that can fight with this and survive.

Pro Comment: This looks pretty good. Its fragile, but it seems like it will be drawing you cards pretty often in both of the families it overlaps into it, thanks to Obscuara’s Connive and the Brokers’ Shield counters. It also hits pretty hard if the air is clear!

Pro Comment: This is a a sweeper that really gives you a ton of control over how much damage it does. Of course, to unlock full flexibility, you’re going to need to have a well-stocked graveyard. That seems pretty doable in Black-Red, but still, there’s some real set up, and sometimes you just won’t have what you need to make this do what you want. Then again, sometimes you’ll be able to use this and keep some of your stuff alive while sweeping the opponent. So yeah, this has a wide range of outcomes – some of them are going to be awful, some will be great.

Pro Comment: A two mana ⅓ Flyer is usually kind of passable, and this comes with the pretty big Connive upside. Whether you just end up looting with this and discarding a land or discarding a nonland to give it a counter, you’re ending up with a pretty good deal. It won’t trigger all of the time of course, but because it checks to see if both players have cast a second spell, it does increase the chances of you getting Connive going with it. This will give you great card selection and be a super efficient creature most of the time.

Pro Comment: As we learned in Kamigawa Neon Dynasty, slapping “draw a card” on this type of spell is a big upgrade. Just temporary altering your creature’s stats is a bit too narrow of a use to be something you want to use a card on all the time, but this makes up for that with the cantrip. The times where you use this as a trick that wrecks your opponent is pretty sweet. It probably won’t be quite as good as Suit Up was, since Ninjutsu made for an interesting environment in terms of how opponents would block, but this definitely seems solid.

Pro Comment: This takes some significant set up. You need instants and sorceries in your graveyard and creatures who are worth sacrificing, and while both of things will happen fairly organically with the Maestros, it still feels like a lot of set up that will require a deck with just the right mix of cards to make this work consistently. Even in a Maestros deck, I have a feeling this is a build around.

Pro Comment: You can attack with this once without worrying that it will die, and that goes pretty well with its ability to give another creature Flying. You also just put your opponent in a really ugly spot if they are in a situation where the best they can do is trade with the Agent, because that means you get to attack twice and force them to use a resource each time to kill the Agent, and in the meantime it gets to attack twice and give something else Flying both times.

Pro Comment: Most of the tokens in this format are Citizens, especially within White and more broadly within the Cabaretti colors, and there are also a decent number of non-token citizens around. Getting this to 5 mana seems eminently doable, and while that’s not great, it is certainly passable, and sometimes you’ll cast it for a lot less. 4 mana is probably going to be a pretty common occurrence.

Pro Comment: This looks really good, since it will very frequently be a 3-mana 3/3 that cast Anticipate, and that’s not just a 2-for-1 it is also really good card selection. There will be times that you don’t have something to exile from a yard, but most of the time it won’t be a big ask, and sometimes you might even hate on something in the opposing graveyard!

Pro Comment: This looks like a very good 3 mana walker. He can protect himself with Devil tokens, which always wreak havoc in Limited, and while his +1 isn’t incredible, it does pressure your opponent or pick apart their hand. And there are enough demons and devils in the set that gaining life isn’t out of the question either. His ultimate isn’t going to be super easy to get to, but if you can it might finish off your opponent or draw you a ton of cards! Adding Casualty to the mix is particularly spicy, because getting a copy of this planeswalker is pretty awesome, even if it starts with only a single loyalty. Your opponent will have a heck of a time taking down both of them.

Pro Comment: This doesn’t look very good for Limited. You have to get this into play, and then start casting spells with the exact right mana value to get it going – in other words, you have to cast a one mana spell, then a two mana one, and so on to actually get the tokens. Now, if you just get two tokens out of it that’s probably alright, but I think even doing that is going to be a bit challenging in a non-constructed deck. This is a neat design, but it doesn’t feel like one that is intended to be playable in Limited.

Pro Comment: This is really good. Obviously it has above rate stats to begin with, but then it can also Blitz out of the graveyard all game long. And sure, paying 4 mana and 2 life for a 3/2 with Haste isn’t amazing, but keep in mind it also draws you a card every time it comes back too – and its upside on a card that has probably already done something in the game. This is going to be a real problem for your opponent as the game goes on, as they have to account for this creature every turn, or you might might things even worse for them. The format has plenty of graveyard and sacrifice synergy too.

Pro Comment: This has one more toughness now, but the ability is still clunky as heck, and you don’t often want to be spending your mana doing that when you could be adding to the board.

Pro Comment: This looks really good to me. Even without Blitz, coming with the ability to make a Blitzish version of one of your creatures in play is pretty darn good, because it means you can send in a hasty copy of your best creature that will also draw you a card when it dies, and that means you get back the card you discarded. And its going to die, because it has the same clause that Blitz creatures do. She herself also has Blitz, which sometimes will allow her to come down and finish off an opponent out of nowhere, or make a copy of something right away, but I actually think just straight-up casting her is the way to get the most value out of her. She’s a bit fragile, but it seems like she will be able to take over games.

Pro Comment: This looks pretty nice. What I like the most is that the turn you play it it will often already have some impact, as it will make one of your creatures into a much more formidable attacker. It can of course pump its own power too, so when it attacks its a 4/4, but you’re usually hoping for something spicier than that. It also pairs well with Blitz, as your opponent often won’t want to block a Blitzed creature, since you’ll be getting a card anyway when it dies and the creature isn’t sticking around for good, but Mr. Orfeo complicates that, since the creatures will be hitting harder.
