Many players stretch their colors in this block, and depriving an opponent of a splash color while fixing your colors is very good.


Wait... Wut.

I mean, I have none knowledge of this block, ... but I question splashing for a 5-drop sorcery land destruction / "fixing" in any format.
Certainly not mid-picking it.

Might Weaver seems like a good pick - I like giving trample.

I like +1/+1 more than trample. IIRC, this was quite relevant in Invasion.

Seems most sensible. Other picks are too cutsey. Also, what's up with not giving GREEN dudes trample. Weak. I might be swayed otherwise if I had a sense for the fixing in this set as both the x/1's with text seem to want you to play a shard.

Wayfaring Giant is pretty huge. That's my pick.

If you have all 2 land types, they bounce off each other. If you have 3, Giant wins. Considering we are already green/white and this is a multicolor block, I see that being possible.

A 4/4 on turn 5 or 6 is generally better than a 4/6 on turn 7 or 8.

A 4/4 on turn 5 or 6 is generally better than a 4/7 on turn 7 or 8 that's sometimes a 3/6.

Let's try for a two-color deck. Also, what the man double-posted.
