Creatures

3.5 A two mana 2/2 with lifelink is a creature you always play, and this can grow fairly easily. In the late game, you can use it's ability as a nice mana sink. 4 1x in 33%

4 Because this has Plot, you can really take advantage of the extra mana and make it more likely you can draw a card off of it the turn you play it. 4.7 1x in 33%

2 This has solid stats and an ability with some utility. This isn't a format loaded up with artifacts and enchantments, though. 2.4 1x in 33%

2.5 Green one mana 1/1s with Deathtouch tend to be a little better than black ones because of bite effects. 2.7 1x in 33%

2.5 This is a huge payoff for Saddling, as the counters and life are sure to alter a race in your favor. 3.7 1x in 67%

3 This is a fine play on turn one, and later in the game it can give itself a more relevant body, and maybe even rebuy an ETB. 3.1 1x in 67%

3.5 I'd be happy just getting a 2/4 and a 1/1 for this cost, but doubling abilities -- including the mercenary token tap abilty, can really alter combat. 4.1 1x in 67%

3.5 This gives you two bodies for a reasonable cost, and it's abilty to become indestructible is a real problem for your opponent. Blocking this is kind of a nightmare. 3.8 1x in 67%

3 This will typically generate 2-for-1s, and when you can consistently reanimate something to the battlefield, this will feel like one of the best cards in your deck. 4.1 1x in 67%

4 Two mana for +3/+2 and Trample and a two mana 3/2 with Trample is nuts, even if you wait a turn for the last part. 4.1 1x in 67%

3 I wouldn't count on getting a benefit out of untapping this with regularity, but doing it once per game isn't a stretch, and a two mana 1/1 that taps for mana of any color is always playable anyway. 3.7 1x in 67%

2.5 This has passable stats, and because it can gain first strike, it has the potential to be relevant all game long. 3.1 1x in 67%

3.5 This has great stats, and trample and haste are a very real bonus for your 4 power creatures. 2.9 1x in 100%

2.5 This has decent stats and it's hard for your opponent to interact with it outside of combat without giving you some serious value. 3.5 1x in 100%
Instant, Sorcery

4 This is a great removal spell. Even if it was always just the first mode, it would be a card that always makes the cut -- and one you take highly. But the added Spree upside means that you can achieve a 2-for-1 sometimes. 3.5 1x in 0%

4 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. -0 1x in 33%

3 This is kind of a medium trick if you only use the first mode, but gaining access to the other two in the mid-game is pretty amazing, and it's the kind of card that can really swing a game in your favor between running over an opposing creature and drawing cards. 4 1x in 33%

2 This is a decent trick that gives you back one mana, and it can even help you splash. There aren't so many treasures in Green that this will often give more than +2/+2. 2.1 1x in 33%

2.5 Ramp spells that don't impact the board can hurt, but this provides really nice fixing early and can be a legit win conditoin late. 3.5 1x in 33%

2.5 This is a little expensive, but it'll have a token to hit reasonably often and it can kill just about anything at instant speed. You probably don't want more than one of them, though. 1.1 1x in 33%

1.5 Overruns aren't as good as they used to be. There just aren't board stalls as much. This could end up overperforming if this format bucks that trend, though. 2.5 1x in 33%

3 The base effect is a three mana draw two that loads your graveyard, and the fact this can also blank removal spells or help creatures survive combat is great. I wouldn't put too much stock in the most expensive mode. Sure, the first mode helps you get stuff in your hand, but it's still tough to consistently get your mana's worth out of that effect. 4.3 1x in 33%

2.5 This is pretty nice in all-out aggressive Red-White decks, but too situational for anything else. 2.9 1x in 67%

3.5 This is a great "bite" effect that allows smaller creatures to punch up, and you're going to have enough mounts in Green for that bonus to come up. 4.4 1x in 67%
Enchantment, Artifact

2 This is moslty just a hard-to-cast removal spell that isn't even all that efficient. You'll sometimes get value out of the legendary creature part, but not often enough to give it much weight. 2.9 1x in 0%

4 Exiling a creature for two mana is pretty insane, even if your opponent can potentially get it back later. 4.1 1x in 33%

4 Ramping and fixing your mana while removing a nonland permanent is incredible. 3.6 1x in 33%

1.5 It's great that this replaces itself, but it's too expensive for it to be a trick/aura that I'm interested in using. 1.4 1x in 33%

1 Three mana rocks rarely work in Limited, and while this can draw you cards it only does it very slowly. 2.3 1x in 33%
Planeswalkers
Lands

2 This is a solid source of fixing, though you're probably hoping to get one of the other deserts that fixes your mana. 2.4 1x in 33%

2.5 This is very nice fixing. 3.4 1x in 33%

3 They provide awesome fixing, give you extra value in the form of a ping, commit crimes, and there's even deserts-matter cards in the set. These might just be better than the rare cycle in the format. 2.7 1x in 33%

1 This weak ability isn't worth the hit to your mana base. 2.8 1x in 33%

2.5 This is very nice fixing. 2.5 1x in 67%

4 This is a great two drop that can do a ton of damage if it comes down on turn two -- especially if you played a one drop. But it also has nice late game upside that allows it to always stay relevant. 4 1x in 0%

4 Ramping and fixing your mana while removing a nonland permanent is incredible. 3.6 1x in 33%

4 Exiling a creature for two mana is pretty insane, even if your opponent can potentially get it back later. 4.1 1x in 33%

4 Because this has Plot, you can really take advantage of the extra mana and make it more likely you can draw a card off of it the turn you play it. 4.7 1x in 33%

4 This will be pretty efficient without even trying. If you play it on 4 it's likely to be a 3/3 with flying and trample, and it'll only go from there. 4.3 1x in 33%

4 If you can get even one Dinosaur out of this you're coming out way ahead, and this has the potential to be repeatable. 3.5 1x in 33%

4 Two mana for +3/+2 and Trample and a two mana 3/2 with Trample is nuts, even if you wait a turn for the last part. 4.1 1x in 67%

4.5 This comes down and adds a ton of Haste damage to the board in many situations. The fail-case isn't awesome, but I don't think you'll end up with this just feeling like a 6-mana 4/6 with Haste all that often. 4.4 1x in 33%

5 This is a 4-mana 4/3 that either draws you a card or gives you a 2/2 double strike when it enters the battlefield. And then, it gets that trigger again any time you attack. That's absurd value. 4.5 1x in 33%
