Im my experience, spells that have only cloned my own creatures have continually underperformed for me. My blue decks just tend to be too creature light for this type of effect.
Green 3 drops are a good place for landfall beaters to be with all the mana elves we get. Casting this guy on turn two off an elf should allow the mammoth be a 5/5 consistently for the next few turns.
I'm not a fan of this card since both sides are good early and bad late. The flexibility just isn't there when both sides of the card want to be played at the same time in the game.
This card looks really good to me. It can be a large aggro beater itself but is also able to spread the damage around on a wider board. Very strong aggro card.
Cool card design. Being able to scry 2 and draw a card is nice immediate value but i think the real exciting part of the card is leaving behind the headache of TWO planeswalkers for your opponent to deal with. Jace doesn't interact with the battlefield which is not ideal for a 5cc planeswalker but unless you're very far behind I think JaceMM's two bodies will create enough of a distraction to allow you to gain value off your investment. Having the option of casting it for 3cc puts it over top.
Im thinking of cutting other generic color fixing lands like Tendo ice bridge, aether hub, reflecting pool and i guess evolving wilds/terramorphic expanse. What are other idea's for cuts? Are you adding them to guild sections?
I think this is better than fumigate. If cast on turn 4 it's unlikely anyone is drawing a card and when your opponents do draw, you should still be gaining enough tempo to stabilize. I'll be swapping Fumigate for StS.

Whenever you draw a card ~ gets +1/+0 until end of turn.
When ~ attacks, draw a card.
Discard a card: ~ gains hexproof until end of turn. Tap it.
Okay, I know Azorius is stacked but this creature seems pretty crazy to me. It's as close to a perfect win condition a creature can get. Between gaining life, drawing cards and protecting itself, it does everything you can expect from a creature. Oh, and it flies.
I added a small aristocrats package during my last update so I will definitely be testing this card. He's not an aggressive creature but he fits into braids/stax and aristocrats archtypes very well and comes with a free, repeatable sac outlet with fodder. Then he can recur himself too if the game grinds out. I think this cards abilities line up well with black Cube archetypes and will perform well.
