I know to believe nothing today, but a Galina reprint would be pretty cool, even in an oddball lair.

I feel like including Sisay takes away from the one representature for each color by having a five colored color identity; Akroma, Avacyn, Gerrard, or Heliod may have been decent options (Heliod not so much since he was in the last Theros set).

Alternatively, an allied pair set could have been made with Daxos of Meletis, Diregraf Captain, Master of Cruelties, Ruric Thar Unbowed, and the original Captain Sisay.

Is Daxos ever shown as left-handed?

Now I'm curious how the proportion of left-handed Magic characters compares to real life. I'm surprised there's no leftie tag on Scryfall.

Actually did a random google search since Im fond of the original Sisay when I do play Karador EDH; kinda surprised how much representation left handedness gets in white despite it being a color heavily associated with uniformity.

Huh, yeah, that logic makes sense.

I'm sure there are many MtG characters who are ambidextrous purely because of inconsistency between art pieces.
