Speaking of cheap counters, Arcane Denial (which also has a very cool artwork of a mage blocking some kind of effect) is an instant that counters a spell and draws a card, which made it relatively cheap to slot into most decks, and made a rule that this kind of counter-plus-bonus effects needed at least two blue so that you can't just add Arcane Denial to any deck
My verdict: Basic Energy is boring on the surface, but completely indispensable you cant play without it
We received the Growing Threat White-Black deck with Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos as the main Commander
Each Doctor Who Commander Deck includes 1 ready-to-play Green-Blue-Red deck of 100 Magic cards (2 Rainbow Foil Legendary Creature cards, 98 nonfoil cards), 10 Planechase cards, 1 six-sided planar die, a 2-card Collector Booster Sample Pack (contains 2 Rainbow Foil or nonfoil special treatment cards, with 1 Common or Uncommon and 1 card of rarity Rare or higher), 1 foil-etched Display Commander (a thick cardstock copy of the commander card with foil etched into the cards border and art), 10 double-sided tokens, 1 deck box (can hold 100 sleeved cards), 1 Life Wheel, 1 strategy insert, and 1 reference card Samples of cards from across all decks
As such, if you're going into trading these cards, it's a good idea to go in armed with knowledge of how to spot a fake
