Is it me or does it seem wizards is pushing Izzet colored decks for Battlebond?
Also Ral Zarek’s ultimate with these cards seems pretty good.
Ral Zarek's ultimate unfortunately doesn't involve winning and losing; it cares about the number of heads you get. He's still great if you're running Krark's Thumb, because that's a lot of extra turns.
Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
We had opponents with these at the 2HG event, we stole Z and ended up drawing a few cards, the red partner ended up being massive but not affecting the board much (we just killed it.)
These are super fun and casual though, so into my Ydris chaos deck they go!

I feel like depending on the ubiquity of Crypt in your meta, at least Zndrspt can be a staple of some sorts.
Chance Encounter/Krark's Thumb decks are happy.

These two were suppose to command zones preview cards

I think it’s a homonculus thing now. It’s kind of a simple but overt gimmick, along with the eye thing.
Once you master the mantra of "Strč prst skrz krk" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strč_prst_skrz_krk), a mere Zndrsplt will pose no challenge to you.
Seriously, the Zn combination at the beginning is a bit weird, but otherwise it's just a normal name with two syllabic consonants.
