I'm betting Ugin swoops in and helps. They did so much set up between him and Nicol(including telling us they are twin brothers) and we both know Ugin is the original/oldest planeswalker in the multiverse(that we know of)
It's kind of funny seeing people say "he sucks" man it's like getting echoes of his reveal back in Return block. (Spoilers, he was a standard defining card)
So I was sassing Hydroid on inefficiency(which it is) but, I forgot that RUG Ramp deck is still floating around, and we just got a new explore. Making a 4/4 flying/trample for 6 that draws 2 gains 2 or a 6/6 draw 3 gain 3 for 8 several turns ahead of schedule seems pretty good.
It stats are made to be effective, and if its a 4/4 that draws a card, it will see play, if thats what the card is doing 99% of the time.
But thats all it really is, late game fat, boring ...
They really removed anything remotely interesting from this Ravnica and replaced it with generic filler crap cards ... How could they possible allow this to happen ? Quality Assurance probably all in vacation time or non existent.
Bruh..they've shown a DOZEN CARDS.
