It does have a clearly defined turn 1, 2, and 3 play and standard has no free mulligan.

It's close but I probably keep. I don't have b much experience with Mardu ballista in standard tho

Magic's a simple game, 2 people take turns playing cards and in the end Divinevert wins 2-0...

It's a keeper for me. Land fixing is there and I have plays on pretty much every turn. Only thing that would go bad is drawing into lands every turn after or if your opponent curbs out on a pretty strong opening hand.

I would keep it. Has all the colors in hand, and plays for the first few turns (card draw options T2 and T3 if not drawing better things already). Sure there's the potential to flood out and be stuck with just the 4 Inspectors, but you're also tempting fate mulling to 6 - so I'd rather stick with the 7 card hand that has all my colors and reasonable plays T1-3.

Mulligan.

No interaction or threats from an aggressive deck sucks, especially if you find yourself in a mirror match. If you're taking turn 2 off to draw (or play another 1/2) in the hope of finding some action then something is wrong given the quality of the available 2 drops.

Besides, what type of moronic shuffling has been used to draw such a hand?

Lol casuals.

I'd keep.

You have all 3 colors. You're playing Mardu.

If you're not playing early threats, it means you kept a hand with like Push UnlDis and a couple giddeon/Avacyn. If your opponent is good they'll be trying to outrace you but they'd prob respect that you have those cards. Play your opponents, not ur odds.

I'm more of a 4C Cat with Traverse and Ish person, but I own both decks.
