Pro Comment: A 4-mana 2/4 with Reach is not very good these days, though you could do worse if you need something defensive. This will make some food sometimes, which certainly has its uses in the format

Pro Comment: I think you end up with a decent rate when you cast this card, one that means you won’t feel bad about playing it. Tapping doesn’t always matter, but you do always get Scry 1 draw a card, and when tapping does matter – or even better – when you have a tap payoff in play – this gets significantly better.

Pro Comment: Neither of these modes is a model of efficiency, but the second mode does at least get synergy going for Celebration and Aura decks

Pro Rating: 2.0
Pro Comment: This is a nice Tormenting Voice variant. Even without the Role token this card is usually in the D+ or C- range, especially in a format with some graveyard stuff and a spell deck, and that’s true in this format. Actually adding to the board while digging deeper into your deck is going to feel pretty nice. You probably don’t desperately want more than one of these, although perhaps if you’re in the spell deck going deeper than that first copy might be worth it
Glass Casket

Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: This was in Eldraine the last time, and it was a card that just barely reached premium removal status. It can deal with lots of things efficiently, and the fact it exiles is usually upside
Restless Spire
Average Picked At: 5.00
Total Times Picked: 9
Average Last Seen At: 3.84
Total Times Seen 28
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: A 2/1 with First Strike can attack on a whole lot of boards, and the fact that this one is so cheap to animate is pretty amazing. Adding Scry as the attack trigger is definitely a nice addition
Crystal Grotto
Average Picked At: 8.46
Total Times Picked: 26
Average Last Seen At: 6.93
Total Times Seen 284
Pro Rating: 1.0
Pro Comment: Mana filter lands usually aren’t very good in Limited. It’s just really costly to have to tap two lands for one mana, and that’s effectively what happens when you need to filter using a land. The fact that Prophetic Prism and that Scarecrow are in the set probably also means that the demand for this will be even lower, as those two can filter your mana and you only have to tap one land to do it. Crystal Grotto is usually a 1.5, and with better Common colorless fixing around, this will probably drop down to a 1.0
Restless Cottage

Pro Rating: 4.0
Pro Comment: This one transforms into a really beefy creature when you need it to. Even without the attack trigger I would love this, but hating on the graveyard and getting a Food makes this thing even more amazing

Pro Rating: 3.0
Pro Comment: This looks like a very good rate to me – it is basically a better version of a three mana 2/3 that puts a +1/+1 counter somewhere, and that card is usually quite good in Limited. I think this is one of Green’s best Commons
Johann, Apprentice Sorcerer
Average Picked At: 6.53
Total Times Picked: 17
Average Last Seen At: 5.44
Total Times Seen 99
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: This effect is really powerful, even when limited to once per turn. If your deck has enough instants and sorceries in it, this will end up drawing you an extra card on many turns and that’s just crazy. This gets even better if you use draw effects or other things to manipulate the top of your library, as you increase your chances of getting that card on top. I like the high toughness here too, as it means Johann is an engine that isn’t super easy to kill
Edgewall Pack
Average Picked At: 6.66
Total Times Picked: 38
Average Last Seen At: 5.74
Total Times Seen 222
Pro Rating: 3.0
Pro Comment: A 4-mana 3/3 menace that makes a 1/1 that can’t block is pretty decent. Worth noting that it triggers card swith Celebration on its own, and there are definitely some curve outs where you play a two drop and a three drop with Celebration, where then playing the Pack would make for a pretty spicy turn 4.

Pro Comment: This looks really good to me as it delivers so much value for the cost. You get to add to the board up front, then you get some food, and then you get a very real permanent buff
Faunsbane Troll
Average Picked At: 2.00
Total Times Picked: 6
Average Last Seen At: 1.93
Total Times Seen 15
Pro Rating: 4.5
Pro Comment: It is effectively a 4-mana 5/5 with Trample, something that will give your opponent pause on most boards, and it comes with the ability to shed the Role that is attached to it to fight something. As a 4/4, the Troll is likely to be able to take something down on most board states. If you wait to play it on 5, it will often feel like a 5-mana 4/4 that just kills something, and that’s quite strong. If you can get some more auras on the Troll – something that is very doable in this format – it can even do it more than once, at which point it will feel truly absurd
Gnawing Crescendo

Pro Rating: 1.0 // 2.5
Pro Comment: These effects don’t usually pan out that well in Limited. That said, this format looks like it can go wide in both Black/Red and Red/White, meaning this might have some more uses than usual. It is nice that you get something even if your creatures die, but the 1/1s that can’t block aren’t exactly going to help you on the back swing
Two-Headed Hunter
Average Picked At: 3.32
Total Times Picked: 25
Average Last Seen At: 3.00
Total Times Seen 68
Pro Rating: 4.5
Pro Comment: This looks really good. The combat trick side will alter combat significantly, usually enough for it to be in your favor, and then in the later game you get a reasonably efficient creature. This is another Adventure that has very real 2-for-1 potential.
Scarecrow Guide

Pro Comment: This is another way to fix your mana that is solid, but certainly not exciting
Sugar Rush
Average Picked At: 10.97
Total Times Picked: 36
Average Last Seen At: 9.14
Total Times Seen 381
Pro Rating: 1.5
Pro Comment: This replaces itself, but the buff is highly unlikely to be that useful in combat. Sure, it probably lets you kill something, but most of the time whatever you cast this on will die two. Drawing the card does keep you from getting 2-for-1’d, but it doesn’t really make up for the tempo you lose. It does get a little better with Rat tokens, but I’d still steer clear of it most of the time
Eerie Interference

Pro Comment: Fog effects are almost always bad in Limited, even when they become one-sided. The problem is that they have far too narrow of a use-case
Skewer Slinger
Average Picked At: 11.00
Total Times Picked: 35
Average Last Seen At: 8.99
Total Times Seen 397
Pro Rating: 1.5
Pro Comment: This makes X/1s pretty miserable as they can neither attack through it or block it effectively. Overall, it is definitely a defensive card more than anything, and that’s always a little awkward
Sentinel of Lost Lore
Average Picked At: 3.00
Total Times Picked: 5
Average Last Seen At: 3.00
Total Times Seen 17
Pro Rating: 3.5
Pro Comment: You’ll usually be able to get some value out of two of the three ETB options, and you get a creature with great stats too
