![]() The single most powerful card is a tough call, but I'm leaning towards Scheming Symmetry. There's a few really nice additions to black in M20. NOTABLE in BLACK Audacious Thief Blood for Bones Bloodsoaked Altar Cavalier of Night Disfigure Dread Presence Embodiment of Agonies Gorging Vulture Knight of the Ebon Legion Legion's End Leyline of the Void Mind Rot Murder Noxious Grasp Rotting Regisaur Sanitarium Skeleton Scheming Symmetry Sorcerer of the Fang Sorin, Imperious Bloodlord Thought Distortion Undead Servant Unholy Indenture Vampire of the Dire Moon Vilis, Broker of Blood If you're running 4 of these, you'll probably see this hit the top of your deck after death just as quickly as a War of the Spark God would. Add god-recurssion to a non-legendary and we have the makings of a great card. Add some deck manipulation and card draw and its a pretty good card. I'll certaintly be trying to make an artifact-based deck work.īlue also receives some flying tribal cards, which as we noted in the WHITE section, above, will likely see some play.Ĭavalier of Gales A 5/5 flyer for 5 isn't bad on its own. Masterful Replication also has some very nice potential, and fantastic synergy with the tokens Karn, Scion of Urza puts out. ![]() ![]() Compare this to Cleansing Nova and its clear which is the stronger card. Expect to see this played very often.įlood of Tears is another very powerful reset card with a fantastic secondary ability. NOTABLE in BLUE Agent of Treachery Brineborn Cutthroat Cavalier of Gales Drawn from Dreams Dungeon Geists Faerie Miscreant Flood of Tears Hard Cover Leyline of Anticipation Masterful Replication Metropolis Sprite Portal of Sanctuary Spectral Sailor Unsummon Warden of Evos Isle Winged Wordsĭrawn from Dreams provides a ton of utility for searching and fixing your deck, and synergizes very nicely with Rule of Law to find needed tools. Lastly, we have at least one new potential archetype in flyers, primarily due to Sephara, Sky's Blade which can be played very early for just one cmc and tapping 4 flying creatures. This card powers Venerated Loxodon similarly to how Saproling Migration is presently used- with no requirement of green mana. Raise the Alarm is also a bit of a stealth inclusion. Compare this to a hypothetical 2/2 afterlife creature that costs two and leaves a 1/1 behind on death with the following caveat - the afterlife 1/1 can only attack or block if another one of your creatures is also attacking and blocking, but its indestructible. Ancestral Blade is a fun card in that it costs two mana and you essentially get a 2/2 soldier creature and an equipment all at once. These archetypes, whether mono white, azorious, boros, or selesnya, all see some powerful tools. White aggro players should be very happy with M20. In my opnion this Planeswalker doesn't meet the cut as a good all-arounder and it is limited to life-gain specific decklists. This card looks better than it will play, and is somewhat of a red-herring in it's Ajani's Pridemate creation ability. Other notable cards of mention are Ajani, Strength of the Pride. Here's a card with a similar upside-downside that was very impactful in its heydey Winters Orb. ![]() And that's not considering any other cards that would be included in such a deck. Cards like Unsummon even gain value, and lockdowns consisting of just Rule of Law and Teferi, Time Raveler will be brutal to deal with. This card alone could bump up the value of flash spells, counterspells, and planeswalkers. Rule of Law allows you to control the game in a major and consistent manner by expending only one card per turn to completely counteract your opponent's ability to do anything. Resolve Rule of Law and it becomes very easy to lock your opponent down with counterspells or removal. I think people are sleeping on Rule of Law. NOTABLE in WHITE Ajani, Strength of the Pride Ancestral Blade Brought Back Cavalier of Dawn Gods Willing Leyline of Sanctity Loyal Pegasus Planar Cleansing Raise the Alarm Rule of Law Starfield Mystic Hanged Executioner Loyal Pegasus Sephara, Sky's Blade Angel of Vitality Leylines DecklistĪdditional discussion of this article can also be found in this /r/magicTCG posting and this /r/spikes one. ![]()
