PART 3
Imp's mischief is MonoB or Golgari's Deflecting Swat
Sudden Spoiling is a one-sided boardwipe and player removal card
Thieving Skydiver is actually Sol Ring's thief
Fear of Impostors is the best of its cycle. Awesome in enchantress, but also disgusting in blink / displacing kitten

modal spells are always a good rate of 2-3:1 - like all charms are. UM is a budget deflecting swat / YLUTT is a one sided boardwipe (if the creature you choose has deathtouch 😈)
Scapegoat is great for blink/ETB strategies and Reap is a niche awesome recursion tool 🧵

3 years ago we were getting some really interesting commanders with the release of Dominaria United - the "Legends Retold" cycle.
Some were/still are quite popular, and in a world of UB [insert your emotion here], I think these are cards are cool and inspiring.

My bonus card from the latest Secret Lair is a sweet and beautiful Island. Is this the new “bonus sheet”?

#EOE pre-release tonight. Every single opponent cast Sothera, the Supervoid. I managed to get 2nd place with absolutely no bombs, but ughh that card is so good in limited.

I tried playing Falco Spara, but the amount of triggers/activated abilities are too much, and if I’m not tracking it correctly, my opponents won’t keep up either. I don’t play Arena, but I think this one on digital might be better (and fun) to play.

I’ve been having a lot of fun with aetherdrift Loot. I gave it a twist and made it an enchantress deck.

Uhhh what explains this card spiking? it’s £9 the regular version and £25 the alt art.
(I’ve got my copy for £3 👀)

The Falcon screams shenaningans. Nothing totally new as it’s a black card. The best part is the ability to cheat the commander tax.

The Belligerent could give us an edge if exiled cards from the library. The best payoffs are tied to Universes Beyond cards.

Golden Argosy is a niche (but efficient) blink engine. Probably a good budget commander too.
