After initially really not liking the wonky color fixing creature cycle, they are kind of growing on me. Some of them are actually pretty decent as creatures on their own.
The flavor text reminds me of that scene from Amelié where she meets the lady that asks her , "Earl Grey? Bergamot? Vous prendrez-bien quel·que chose?"
(The joke being that Earl Grey is the English name for tea made with French Bergamot flowers . In the film , the character is more making a flippint commentary about language , which would be neatly countered with "With what choice?" (fr. "Pourquoi chose?"))
The Brokers Initiate dodges the traditional "3 damage burn", is in a relevant tribe, and has a useful upside later. Pretty decent common.
Having 0 power is kind of bad in a set with Shield counters, needs at least 1 damage to get rid of it.
And having 0 power is also kinda bad with Vehicles and Crew ... so, while its a blocker sure, it still has a lot that speaks against it being anywhere of a good card.
the last member of the mana fixing rogues prevents attackers on it’s ETB not too shabby
and The flavor text on initiate is chef's kiss
Maestros Initiate: graveyard synergy
Brokers Initiate: beeg
So who's the best from either the Initiates or the color fixing cycles?
I think I like the Initiate’s activated ability more than simply granting +*/+* as we’ve seen many times before.
I also like how they’re being more open to incorporating hybrid into the game in unique ways.
