Creatures

3.5 If you play this on turn two, it can just run away with the game, since it will just keep making Energy and making itself larger. Later in the game, it isn’t quite as imposing, but it still represents a very real threat that has to be accounted for. 4.2 1x in 20%

3.0 If you can move even one counter to this, it becomes quite potent. Even with 0 counters, it is at least passable, and sometimes it will get even scarier! 3.5 1x in 40%

3.5 If you drop this on turn two, it does a pretty good job of taking over the game, since on the next two turns it attacks as a 4/3 with Trample. Now, those boost are temporary, and eventually the Brawler will get a little outclassed, but a 4/3 trampler is relevant on most boards. 3.4 1x in 40%

3.5 This definitely isn’t exciting but it has good stats and is hard to block, and that’s a nice thing to have in RG. 2.6 1x in 40%

3.0 This is the best card in the “Thriving” cycle. The first time it attacks it becomes a ¾, and that’s a pretty real body – especially on turn 4, but even in the later part of the game. 3.3 1x in 40%

3.0 This guy sure is fragile for a 4-mana creature, but if you get to untap and attack with him, he’s not going to be easy to stop, as a 3/3 with double strike demands your opponnet’s respect all game long, and obviously, it can really get out of control if you make some more energy. 3.9 1x in 40%

3.5 If this just also had its ETB effect, it would be completely insane, since you would just add a 3-mana 3/2 to the board and kill something. Obviously, the Revolt requirement makes it significantly less insane, and this will just be the 3/2 a little more often than you’d like. Still, when you do get Revolt going, it will still feel like you’re doing something amazing. 3.9 1x in 40%

3.5 This has great stats to begin with, so adding the ability to make Servo tokens is great. A 2/1 first striker is often relevant pretty much all game, whether you’re the one attacking or blocking, so having that Energy/servo upside is great, especially because going wide is very viable in this set. 3.2 1x in 40%

2.5 This has decent stats and ramps your mana, which makes it a solid card. 2.6 1x in 40%

2.5 This can crew most of the vehicles worth playing in the format while also doing 1 damage to your opponent, and even if it isn’t crewing, it is a 3-mana 3/2 that does 1 to the opponent every time it attacks. It does surprisingly well in aggressive decks. 1.5 1x in 40%

4.0 It is kind of amazing how much this does for you. The fairly efficient trampling body coupled with +5 life is just a big deal, and often enough to get you back at parity from behind. It really helps you stabilize against the format’s aggro decks. 3.9 1x in 40%

3.0 This is often a two mana 3/1 with Menace, and that’s a pretty real threat – not just something your opponent can just disregard. It is hard to effectively stop this thing early. 2.3 1x in 40%

3.5 If this just also had its ETB effect, it would be completely insane, since you would just add a 3-mana 3/2 to the board and kill something. Obviously, the Revolt requirement makes it significantly less insane, and this will just be the 3/2 a little more often than you’d like. Still, when you do get Revolt going, it will still feel like you’re doing something amazing. 3.1 1x in 60%

2.5 This actually provides some reasonable fixing and ramp, and is large enough to trade. 1.7 1x in 80%
Instant, Sorcery

3.0 You have to be careful with this, because your opponent killing the creature you put the counter on will just blow you out of the game. However, when the coast is clear, permanently pumping a creature and killing an opposing creature is quite strong, especially in a set that has +1/+1 counter payoffs. 2.7 1x in 20%

3.0 This is a nice removal spell. At worst, it is two mana to give something -2/-2, and if you have other energy around, it can take down larger things. 2.3 1x in 20%

1.5 This is a decent trick that you’ll run in some of your aggro decks. 0.6 1x in 20%

2.5 So BG likes +1/+1 counters, so the idea here is that you’re only weakening opposing creatures, but that idea quickly disintegrates for two reasons: First, not all of your creatures will have counters, even in a BG deck, and second, your opponent is reasonably likely to have some counters too! And it isn’t like -2/-2 really does enough on all board states anyway. You don’t even always play this in BG, which is a sad thing to say about a signpost uncommon. 1.2 1x in 20%

1.5 Even with the Energy, this is a pretty mediocre trick. 1.1 1x in 20%

2.5 This is pretty slow, but by the late game in can get you back a whole bunch of cards. Now, granted, you have to tap out and not add to the board when you do it most of the time, but that’s okay. And, in a fail case, you can just pay three with it to return one thing to your hand, and that’s not too shabby in a pinch. So yeah, reasonable floor here and an insane ceiling. 3.2 1x in 20%

4.0 4 mana to kill any creature or artifact is great in this format, even at Sorcery speed. This is premium removal. 3.5 1x in 20%

2.5 This can often give you a 2-for-1 for only two mana, and that’s great! It won’t always line up that way, but even when it doesn’t it tends to do a pretty good job of making combat go your way. 1.7 1x in 40%

3.0 4 mana for 4 damage at Sorcery speed isn’t the most amazing thing, and the land tap down part of the card doesn’t give it much of an upgrade. Still, it is reasonably efficient removal. 2.8 1x in 40%

4.0 This is a great Common, one that would be really good even if it always does 3, but will be doing 4+ pretty often. 3.4 1x in 40%

4.0 Doing 3 to something and gaining 3 is great, and even though this can’t hit your opponent, you are going to feel pretty pretty much every time you cast it. Even if you’re behind, killing an X/3 and gaining 3 is enough to pull you back to parity most of the time. 3.8 1x in 40%

3.0 This card is sneaky good. It is basically one mana to draw a card and gain two energy, and that’s a great deal. And sure, the card you draw is a land, but that’s fine! It basically lets you play fewer lands in your deck, gives you energy for all the cards that care about that and fixes your mana. It just does so much for only one Green. 2.6 1x in 40%

3.0 At worst, this kills an X/2 for two mana, which is fine – and sometimes you can take out 2 X/1s, which will feel amazing. It can also go after your opponent when necessary. 2.6 1x in 60%

4.0 Most of the time, this will kill your opponent’s best creature and bolt your opponent in the face. If that’s not premium removal, I don’t know what is. 3.5 1x in 60%
Enchantment, Artifact

1.0 This is something you’ll play if you’re really hard up for fixing, but will avoid most of the time. 1.3 1x in 20%

1.5 This gives you a bunch of energy over the course of the game, and can help you rebuy ETB effects, but in most decks it doesn’t really feel worth it. 2.5 1x in 20%

3.5 This ends up letting you loot and make creatures unblockable, and that’s a pretty nice to have around to close out a game. 4.3 1x in 20%

3.0 This gives a kind of passable boost for the casting and Equip cost, but what really makes it a nice card is the fact that it equips for free to an Artificer when it enters the battlefield, and this format has a ton of them. Playing this on turn one and an Artificer on turn two happens all the time in this format, and is a pretty amazing start. 2.1 1x in 20%

5.0 This is an incredible bomb. It is large, relatively easy to crew, and has Flying – but that’s not what pushes it into bomb territory. Instead, it’s the fact that you get to Lightning bolt a creature every time it attacks or enters the Battlefield. Because it does it on ETB, it means you’ll get value out of it even if your opponent kills Skysovereign right away, and if they don’t, it is going to slowly destroy their board while attacking hard in the air, which is pretty hard to beat. 5 1x in 20%

3.0 The fac this replaces itself is a pretty big deal. Most of the time filter artifacts aren’t worth a card, but this is literally worth a card and then some because of that. And, this format really cares about artifacts. 2.7 1x in 40%

3.0 This card might not look very exciting, but it does a whole lot! It does stuff with your Artifact synergies, can set up Revolt for free, lets you play fewer lands, and helps you splash. 2.3 1x in 40%

4.0 The downside here might look big, but in reality it just ends up being a card advantage engine. Now, you do need to have a reasonably low curve and be pretty aggressive to get full value out of Midnight Oil, but once you do, it will be pretty incredible. Your opponent just won’t be able to keep up with all the extra cards you draw, and even once you run out of counters, you’ll find yourself able to stay away from being damage much by it. 3.5 1x in 40%
Planeswalkers

4.5 Unsurprisingly, this is a bomb. Her +1 adds a very real threat to the board that can also protect her. A 5/5 land just won’t let many thing through, and if you’re ahead, you can just swing away with it. Her -3 lets you return the best permanent from your graveyard to your hand too, which is sometimes amazing, and her ultimate makes all your lands draw you a card for the rest of the game – and it isn’t even that hard to get to! You can just +1 her once for that 5/5, then use her -6 on the next turn, and sometimes that’s the right thing to do. 4.9 1x in 20%
Lands

3.5 This gives you really good fixing, especially because having more energy to use on it really isn’t that hard. 3.2 1x in 20%
Top Rated Cards

4.0 I am sold on Pia even when she’s just a 3-mana 2/2 that makes a 1/1 Thopter. That’s a card you would always play! And of course, she can do a lot more than that! Like give Firebreathing to artifact creatures (including her Thopter), or give up artifacts to make creatures unable to block. This is a 3-drop that can really take over games, and that’s not something one says very often in Limited. 4.8 1x in 20%

4.0 This has great stats + trample, and also gives you extra +1/+1 counters and energy, both things Green decks are interested in. 3.7 1x in 20%

4.0 The downside here might look big, but in reality it just ends up being a card advantage engine. Now, you do need to have a reasonably low curve and be pretty aggressive to get full value out of Midnight Oil, but once you do, it will be pretty incredible. Your opponent just won’t be able to keep up with all the extra cards you draw, and even once you run out of counters, you’ll find yourself able to stay away from being damage much by it. 3.5 1x in 40%

4.0 Doing 3 to something and gaining 3 is great, and even though this can’t hit your opponent, you are going to feel pretty pretty much every time you cast it. Even if you’re behind, killing an X/3 and gaining 3 is enough to pull you back to parity most of the time. 3.8 1x in 40%

4.0 This is a great Common, one that would be really good even if it always does 3, but will be doing 4+ pretty often. 3.4 1x in 40%

4.0 It is kind of amazing how much this does for you. The fairly efficient trampling body coupled with +5 life is just a big deal, and often enough to get you back at parity from behind. It really helps you stabilize against the format’s aggro decks. 3.9 1x in 40%

4.0 Most of the time, this will kill your opponent’s best creature and bolt your opponent in the face. If that’s not premium removal, I don’t know what is. 3.5 1x in 60%

4.5 Unsurprisingly, this is a bomb. Her +1 adds a very real threat to the board that can also protect her.

You can just +1 her once for that 5/5, then use her -6 on the next turn, and sometimes that’s the right thing to do. 4.9 1x in 20%

4.5 So a 4-mana 3/3 flyer is always good in Limited, and this one also has firebreathing, and can gain first strike or haste. It might not be the most exciting bomb ever, as it is basically just a French Vanilla creature, but this can really take over games. 4.8 1x in 20%

4.5 Yeah, this is an Uncommon, but it just feels like a bomb in this format. It isn’t hard to go wide, it is a 5-mana 5/5, and it has an immediate and large impact on just about every board it can come down on. 4.2 1x in 20%

4.5 This is a 4-mana 4/3 that threatens to gain a counter and gain hexproof from the moment it hits the table, and that’s really good. It means your opponent’s removal is almost useless against it, and its size is also a problem as both a blocker or attacker, and if your deck is good at producing energy, it becomes even more of a problem. 4.9 1x in 20%

5.0 This is an incredible bomb. It is large, relatively easy to crew, and has Flying – but that’s not what pushes it into bomb territory. Instead, it’s the fact that you get to Lightning bolt a creature every time it attacks or enters the Battlefield. Because it does it on ETB, it means you’ll get value out of it even if your opponent kills Skysovereign right away, and if they don’t, it is going to slowly destroy their board while attacking hard in the air, which is pretty hard to beat. 5 1x in 20%

5.0 This comes down with a pretty large evasive body and destroys your opponent’s best creature while also gaining you life. That can turn the game around in a really big way, and that makes this an incredible bomb. 4.9 1x in 20%

5.0 This demon has great stats, and while the -2/-2 effect is symmetrical, you get to decide when to play it, and you’ll do it when it benefits you and wrecks your opponent – and even if it does take down some of your stuff, at least you get Energy that the Demon can then use to reanimate one of those creatures! Triple Black is pretty real, and not guaranteed all the time, but this is still a stonecold bomb. 4.8 1x in 20%
