Tiered Some spells in this set offer three different effects, increasing in effectiveness with how much mana you pay for them
I wish I could put Azlask higher up on the list, but Ive only managed to play with it two times as of writing
While the previous Atraxa was definitely a nightmare, Atraxa, Grand Unifier is on another level
This creature reads: Whenever an opponent casts a spell with mana value 3 or less, Scalding Viper deals 1 damage to that player. Basically, if youre against a deck that purposefully keeps their cards cheap, a single copy of this card could end them
They focus on setting up powerful attackers and dealing high amounts of damage from the early turns of the game (e.g., Raging Bolt ex )
To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as a flashback cost), add any cost increases (such as kicker costs), then apply any cost reductions (such as that of Lyse Hext's second ability)
