This reminds me of one of my favorite stories from our LGS from many many years ago
Player 1: "What life are you at?"
Player 2: "9"
Player 1: "Hm… do you wanna gain one life?"
Player 2: "Sure!" https://t.co/c4E9L5IN9x— Paulo Vitor (@PVDDR) November 14, 2019
Now that Oko is banned, think about all the cool cards you can now build your deck around! For example:
Teferi, Time Reveler
Narset
The Royal ScionsIm (mostly) kidding. Fires of Invention, The Great Henge, Cauldron, U/R phoenix, U/W control, U/G flash..brewing starts tomorrow!
